Running old raids

[RiceisNice]

Well it's 3 tanks, not 6 tanks.

Fixed that for you~

Labyrinth of the Ancients says hi. Doesn't help that it's also required to unlock the two following raids.

You have the best shot at running these on the weekend when alot of people max out their WT. during the week, its a long wait.

IIRC, didn't one of the Live Letters mention they were reworking(or wanted to) the Labyrinth to be 3 tanks instead of 6? I remember hearing something about it, but can't remember if it was hearsay or directly from the letter.

When raid roulette comes you'll have no problem getting in. Problem is #1 it's old content and #2 majority of us have run that stuff so many times and there is 0 incentive to go in atm.

For shits and giggles? To watch the first timers fall to Ozma's brilliance?

It wasn't going to make it for 4.1 IIRC, although they did have plans for raid roulette to be ready for 4.1. Both are things I wouldn't hold my breath on given their track record for these sort of things.

And while tanks are slightly more abundant than usual, healers are nowhere to be found half the time. Even I've stopped healing stuff as much now that AST is 70, unless I'm queueing with a friend.

I run a lot of tome farming with dps now even though i leveled two healers as mains on my alts. Not worth it to me to deal with DF and tanks who like to speed run everything. I will heal the content with FC and friends. Relative to the raids other than maybe wanting a clear, why would you need to run them now? I personally haven't revisited any of the content since xpac.

Which is a shame cuz the void ark robe of casting looks so good. I mean, it's not the best robe but it's nice.

Honestly the queue keeps me from even trying, much as I would like to get some of the Ultima accessories for glam two hours is two hours I could slowly be levelling things. Also Queenie caused plenty of headaches when people were actually trying, not keen to give it a shot with the 'mechanics are for cars' attitude in play.

The Crystal Tower raids saw a generous surge in popularity when SE added Aether Oils to the weekly quest to incentivize people who were working on Anima weapons to populate them. 1800 tomes for running 3 24 mans was a pretty generous offer. Now Aether Oils are down to 350 poetics, and the allure is much diminished.
I expect that SE will eventually add a weekly quest for the Mhachi 24 mans also, probably also tied to the SB relic system.

6 tanks is a bit excessive for LoTR since the ilevel boom, cutting out the 3 who apparently all want to main tank Bone dragon is going to be nice. YoshiP said it will get re-worked to lower the tank slots for it, but it may or may not make it in 4.1.

I just want to run the Mhachi stuff because the orchestration rolls that are there.
