This is a boon to LSs/FCs with social members who play MMOs as social games, and a catastrophe for statics who want to log in once a week, bang away at end game content, and go do something else.
As someone in the former, I'm stoked.

Now that you've been sufficiently called on the carpet; your move, rhetorical, flatulent, fustian, gaseous, gassy, grandiloquent, oratorical, orotund, windy, bloated, elevated, florid, flowery, grandiose, highfalutin (also hifalutin), high-flown, high-sounding, inflated, lofty, ornate, pompous, pontifical, pretentious, stilted, tumid, turgid; overdone, verbose, wordy - BOMBASTIC.
This so much.
"Oh no, the cliques who run 4 turns with eachother every reset now have the ability to run it with other people."
Personally, I'm looking forward to the removal of the excuse "I cleared that turn for the week already"
-And it turning into "I got my drop from it for the week, ask someone else" in FCs.
It's not that statics are inherently anti-social (Though many are, with members found through PF that only talk during specific times). Its that this...A general observation:
The largely negative attitude towards "raiders" on these forums is mind-boggling to me...A) because it exists, and B) because people find raiders to be acceptable targets.Since when did running Coil preclude players from being social gamers and active within their own FCs? The only arguably antisocial behavior that I've personally observed or practiced myself is choosing not to spend time carrying players who want to skip all intervening content and jump straight to getting end-game clears without actually needing to learn how to do it (I'd say that's what run selling is for), which is very different from helping self-motivated, active learners, of which I don't currently know very many who aren't now in my static or in someone else's already.
...Is a thing, and its a problem for social group who can't divide themselves by 8. Now, if you have a FC of say, 13 people, you can all start running together, instead of telling 5 people to go find someone else, or making raids a race to see who hits the join party button first.
I don't see much hate aimed toward statics in here. Just aimed at people who want to keep their 8 man groups together, and damn everyone else.
As for the drops thing, I'd actually be ok with people getting their gear locked after one run, even if you didn't get anything, but still being able to run Alexander. I just want to be run with all my friends whenever their on, not the 7 fastest.
