What would you like to see/change for Omega Raid?

[EorzeaHero69]

Bahamut and Alexander were pretty good raids though I like Bahamut more. Since we're gonna have Omega sometime in 4.0, would like to see something new there. Like creative mechanics kinda like with Alexander 11, and/or add items other than tokens and pages for normal and savage (or Champion for Omega) or at least tweak the weekly lot system for raids (though it may be unlikely).

What new stuff and/or changes would you like to see for Omega?

How about a raid that take place outside.

Fighting a full size version of the original Omega Weapon rather than some tiny "Omega Prime" version inside the boss itself. I'd imagine the boss is too massive for this to realistically work but I can dream.

This would be really neat if you had two split into two different teams to tackle different sides of the body simultaneously.

An 8 person party being divided into two 4 teams and completely separated from each other. But what they do influences the other team. Like an add spawns on one team and while the add is alive, the other is continually hit with unavoidable damage.

I wouldn't mind seeing one where the team has to split up (or even a 24man where each alliance splits up). Almost like with one of the Alexanders where 4 go on left/4 on right, but that lasts longer than a minute.

Just Non Scripted. or less scripted have some rng in the mechanincs. it's kinda boring when you know exactly whats coming next every time

One that actually makes healers heal and tanks tank. One that doesn't make everyone into a glorified DPS

For healers the capabilities of an individual vary a lot. Even at the current, easy healing levels of Creator there are plenty of healers who don't have any time to dps and more who can't even heal enough to keep the party alive. And then all the good ones are dpsing for 99% of the fight because "there's nothing to heal". No matter where you set the required healing amount there will be people both capable of way more and less.

This ^

That said, I think a relatively easy way to achieve that would be for the devs to do this v

Obviously, nothing is quite so black and white when it comes to game design, but I think more randomized fight mechanics would do a LOT to ease the "Cleric Stance/OT stance" uptime we have currently.

Easy, just design a fight where the victory objective isnt the death of the boss. Have like a survival wave arena where you have to continually pump aether or something and survive for a duration.
