Are static groups simply the now accepted reality for endgame progression?

[Murugan]

That's the whole point of end game content, that it's practically impossible without a static group. That said, it would be nice if you would be able to run it twice, or thrice, to help others progress.

I don't know any MMO where this is possible though (with exception of WoW's LFR).



Xbob42, relax. How can something on a game forum wind you up like this.

Because YOU specifically did exactly what he was complaining about.



What the hell man, no one here is talking about pick up groups. Can you even read one post in a thread before replying or are you driven by some compulsion to jump at every opportunity to be rude?


Ummm DUHHH or "DERP" or whatever the hell you kids say these days, everyone knows it is supposed to be difficult and not able to be beaten with a random group. That is not the point of this thread, the point of this thread is static groups.

Most of us who were born before 1995 and played MMORPG's have experience doing so in endgame groups which were not simple statics but communities of various people we play with (some who we have known for years). That is the issue, we want to play with all of our friends not just a static of 7 others.
