Party size reduction a good change?

You can already kill everything with 6-8 people right now without even rebalancing them, i still don't see why people are so adamant with 15man, 15man creates nothing but zerg-fest, do people even care about rage timer when they have 15 members? lol

Everything can be killed with 8 people or less. SE has said in interviews that this change will be coming. Even if you hadn't read the interviews this change should have been hinted at by the skill point and experience point return from having more than 8 people in a group.

Anyways I am curious about the attribute bonuses they will be offering with "light parties" and "full parties."

EDIT: On a side note if people are really upset about this change, larger linkshells can now have two groups to take down NM's and such. If anything larger linkshells will have an upper hand in this situation.

How is having twice as many groups competing for the small number of NMs a good thing? Even with 1 group per shell you can end up with 4+ shells competing on a busy day.

yes it is not a good thing when we only have small number of NMs, but what is stopping from adding more. i am pretty sure if they adds even 5 more NM, its gonna be a very busy night ahead. =D
