However, what I feel needs to be corrected is the dismissal of Alliance Raids not being coordinated, as they very much are.
They in no way require coordination beyond "the tank tanks, the healer heals, the dps go pew", with the exception of the small number of events that require someone stepping on a pad.

There is no "make sure x group picks up this, y group does that, these healers on this tank, make sure you use healer cooldowns at these specific points, dps have to watch xyz, or coordinate interrupts". You mash buttons, you heal the blue things, each of which is capable of tanking every mob in every mass pull designed for 24 people, and you group heal when the boss hits everyone with an ae.

You can even do them with 24 tanks, because literally all of them can be killed by either spinning in a circle a lot or 123'd and healed with clemency.


We do have one raid-sized event that requires coordination in BA.
