The problem is the everybody is using the same strategy..and now there is a certain way to conquer the VoG. They actually want this to be hard...not something you can just breeze thru for great gear.

Edited by Johnny Five: 10/18/2014 3:45:48 PMThe point of Raids. is to improve. all the raids ive done in other games, have never had an asinine idea like this. its straight forward. Do this, do this, rinse and repeat til boss is dead. NEVER have i seen a mechanic that is random like this. (Except random debuffs. but then again, I hate to keep quoting wow things.

You right bro, it's lazy. Everyone in my crew has learnt how to use the shield because of the teleporting being randomised. That will ensure only the best teams will be triumphant. If your not prepared to do the work you shouldn't be rewarded with the best gear.

How about when you do the raid like Bungie wants you too, but every time you get a drop it's something you already have....yeah I understand it's intended. But wow.. how many times can I collect the same peice....it makes me think it's any thing but random....If I get chatterwhite again I'm gonna puke.

I feel you on that chatter white dilemma lol but as for the double ups just break them down and stack dem chips for later. It feels good when you already got the rare materials ready.

Cimyr said it well, but yeah, as an MMORPG veteran myself, raids have set strategies, people that are relied on to perform specific functions in addition to their class role, and a certain time and order to carry out those duties. Raids, even in an FPS type MMO, should not have random chaos. The only time that should happen is when someone fails to fulfill their role or when someone unexpectedly dies at the wrong time.

Which happens constantly if one person loses focus.

They aren't suppose to be a chaotic clusterf*ck of people yelling at each other. I raided for years in WoW and FFXI/XIV and every boss has a set start and they're still a challenge. You can't just change mechanics on a whim like this, unless they want to pad it out longer. Which I'm sure is the case.
