Guild raid questions

Im not really a noob as far as the game goes but i shur am when it comes to this topic so here i am.

I have a few questions about the guild raids and would really like some help with them if you all wouldnt mind so much.

First - does the level of the guild members make allot of difference? (My guild is looking to do a few of these for fun in the near future and i want to know if there is any real detroments to doing the raids at say lvl 20 mentored? Do we miss out on Armor pieces, loot tables diffent (Not a big deal since were doing it for fun) Do the mobs scale wrong? you know that kind of thing.)

Next - Are these guild raids really x2 zones? (Ive been in some really good groups and we have taken on x2s with some problems but we did it. Is this like that or are these really raid zones?)

Last - Is there any problem with bringing none guild members with us? (Do we all need to be Nightmare Legion members or can people from other guilds come to?)

First - In my experience when you are mentored, even though you are scaled back you are still more powerfull than someone of the actual level you are mentored to. For instance if you are lvl 50 you will still be more powerfull than the lvl 20 person you are mentored to. However, the instances (that scale) scale to the average level of the raid when you zone in so make sure you mentor to the level you want before you go in. If you are mentored to 20 and do a raid aimed at level 20's you will get appropriate drops for a level 20 raid.

Next - That all depends on which raid, some are tougher than others. Also if a significant portion of your raid is mentored well below their normal level then the raid will be quite a bit easier. Gear also makes a big difference.

Last - No problems here. Infact no one has to be in the same guild. You can make up a raid of completely pickup people and all will be fine.

Hope that helps. If I have made any mistakes, feel free to point them out (not that I have to tell you guys to LoL.)
