OP: I disagree with your thread. Actually I agree with everything EXCEPT making it easier to get drops. This is what separates the raid from feeling wowish. Shudder... I hate even saying that, but it's true. Wow = everybody has same gear. boring. I think it should be ridiculously hard to get, have variety, and not require 25 man parties like wow does. 8 is fine with me. or even 4. Hell, even DUOing a dungeon for tough items would be fun, to me. But making it nearly impossible to get, hey thats where the fun is at!

Having to select "modes" for dungeons takes away a lot of immersion for me. I can see it now... *Huge UI pops up stating the name of the dungeon, a picture, and a checkbox for easy/hard mode* ... <--- F**K that! I want it to feel like I walked into a cave if the dungeon is in a cave. If it's in a forest, then I want to feel like I wandered too far out into the forest, and deep within I have become trapped in a settlement of monsters, a dungeon, and now have to EPIC-ly fight my way out. And also, having rare mobs or NM's would also be a good add to dungeons. like say a 1% chance of having X_Monster spawn, said monster would drop cool loot, and when it dies you get a buff. Etc etc..
Just make this game immersive, SE. That's what we all want. The true MMO fanatics. (I guess anyway, but I know I do!) I don't want a screen full of bars and windows, or menus and pictures. I want the game world in my face, I wanna explore, I want challenges, I want dialogue and voice overs all the time, I want epic quests that take me around the world to places I never knew existed.

i gave up reading after the 1st 7 pages because it was all the same of back and forth crap. the basic for this raid is to not be stupid and to get to know the area so well that its 2nd nature, work together and leanr each time to get it done packd. I run this raid maybe 4-5 times a day wiht alot of different jobs and ppl. its all about gear and subs really if a player can be a problem or be ver ygreat for your party setup.

the best setup i had was mrd,lnc,pug,archer, 2 con, and a thm
i dont see a glad or all archer in that setup. the skeles died in about 1 min

everyone just needs aoe moves that can hit flying and ground mobs as u can see mrd lnc pug and archer have all of that
im also sure eveyone has seen doc.mogs videos and posts but i still havent won his way and i dont care to change mine
