The way we have it now, you can act as 2 smaller parties with different roles and the battles can be much more creative, IE coil. (split mechanics, ADS stacking mechanics) etc
None of those mechanics are actually new, and a 5 (or 6) person standard party transformed into a 10 or 20 or 25 (or whatever) raid has led to some extremely creative mechanics in the games you've decided are nothing more than tank and spank.
