When everyone is saving their "good" character for the guild run, you do not have as many good people to choose from when pugging. And that is what killed pugging, the lack of separate lock outs.<br /><br />There is the added fact for people like myself. I not only saved my main for the guild raid but I saved my tank too just in case it was needed. So that was effectively removing two, sometimes more, characters from possible people to pug with.<br /><br />From doing flex last night I can see it will not be something you can pug easily until people get to know the fights, but it sure seems like it will be possible. It wasn't until the 3rd boss that we even hit any problems what so ever. First two bosses seemed easy enough. However, I can see the first boss giving some pugs problems, but the second was really easy and the 3rd could be the pug breaker. At the start at least.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-52009870707522947072013-09-10T16:25:42.032-04:002013-09-10T16:25:42.032-04:00I hope that flex builds community and pugs more. ...I hope that flex builds community and pugs more. My main experience with separate lockouts was just "having" to run both every week on at least two toons to have the best possible gear for the main raids (two raids with half mains in each to funnel gear). I can see that still being a thing for hard core raiders with flex now. I think that was why they tried to put flex at 540 so that heroic raiders wouldn't have upgrades from it, so they wouldn't need to run it. I think tier and certain trinkets could still trump that at first though. Now that moves it down to the normal mode raiders can see upgrades in flex, but they are generally less likely to feel the need to run both if they aren't competing in the progression race.<br /><br />I don't think there's any one reason for the drastic drop in raiding, and even if there was neither of us is going to have the numbers to back it up. <br /><br />I'm hoping that flex is closer to normal raiding though, and therefore more likely to allow you to show some skill. Also more likely to be on vent during so you can get a feel for how it would be during real raids. Whenever I ran LFR with guildies it was usually only a subset of the people in the run, and everyone just autopiloted it. <br /><br />I think in theory it would be nice if all the versions dropped the same, and you just picked the version you liked best. In reality that would just lead to different abuses. Hard core guilds running tons of lower level raids to funnel gear, and only then stepping up in difficulty for the real race. I like the idea of you can only get loot once but you can run it to help friends more times, but in formats where the bosses themselves still drop loot that again would lead to abuses.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-64201237795354911352013-09-09T15:14:21.829-04:002013-09-09T15:14:21.829-04:00They are two completely different things. If they...They are two completely different things. If they had 2 separate lock outs but changed it to the same gear level then you can run 10s with guild and 25s with pug or the the other way around. <br /><br />It builds community, helps guild recruitment, and lets people make a choice. Sure, many would still feel they "need" to run both, I would be one of them, but the benefits to community can not be denied.<br /><br />I believe flex can be the replacement for that second lock out, the pug lock out, be it 10 or 25 of before. But I also believe flex should drop the same item level as normal otherwise it just becomes another stepping stone and goes from the illusion of choice to run all to the reality that even if you run one you will still "need" to run another. All opinion of course.<br /><br />The change in raiding with adding 10s and 25s together destroyed my server and many other servers. You can see, if you can still find it, that drastic drop in raiding from wrath to cataclysm and that is the main reason for it.<br /><br />So, those two scenarios are no where near the same. It is not so much having too many raids that is the problem, it is having too many item levels for each raid. They should all drop the same gear. I would even go so far as to say LFR / flex / normal / heroic should all drop the same gear and the only difference between them would be difficulty, allowing people true choice.<br /><br />You make a great point with the flex for resting with guilds but you are aware that you could do that with LFR too right? My guild would routinely invite other people from other servers on out LFR runs back when they were new.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-38428481944221687392013-09-09T15:01:41.948-04:002013-09-09T15:01:41.948-04:00You say removing shared lockouts was the worst dec...You say removing shared lockouts was the worst decision ever, yet you complain about having too many raids to run with flex and normals. Those two scenarios are basically the same. Which is it? <br /><br />For me, Flex will be nice because it will likely be the only real raiding I'll see for most of the patch, and I'll be able to do it on characters cross server. <br /><br />I could see server transfer revenue going down significantly because people can try raiding with a guild via flex before transferring now. It won't be quite the same, but you'll at least get a feel for the guild environment instead of wasting 25 bucks to find out the guild is all full of your third ten men people.

So you have my vote at least.<br /><br />I like your ideas but as you said, I do not see LFR going away. Blizzard has MAJOR issues with admitting mistakes so don't expect that to happen any time soon.

I'm not sure WHAT we'll get but I think 5.4 will be a testing ground for Blizzard to see where the action is.<br /><br />If I had to guess, I'd say LFR will be the one to go away and will become something less difficult than it currently is and will be a catch-up mechanic for gear (like the previous late-expansion 5-mans) more than viable current content. More of an interactive story than an actual raid, similar in difficulty to heroic 5-mans but with 25 people tripping over each other. Raiders won't have any obligation to run it, it'll drop lower-quality gear and JPs (which will hopefully be a bit more useful than they were in MoP).<br /><br />Flex will be renamed Normal and will become the "standard" type of raid that most people do who consider themselves raiders.<br /><br />Dedicated 10- and 25-man raids will be called something new (I don't think it will be Heroic) and have a difficulty level somewhere between current normals and heroics, probably closer to normal.<br /><br />Elite modes will be added that are somewhat more difficult than current heroics and are available after you've killed a boss - so, even if you've only killed the first boss, you can do him on Elite mode the next time in. If you get stuck on a progression boss you can choose to work on Elite progression earlier in the instance instead even if you don't have a full clear. That might be of use to some raids who have a poor comp for a boss but have the skill to down a harder earlier boss.<br /><br />I'm probably completely wrong, though. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-14001989905564292802013-09-06T11:37:08.074-04:002013-09-06T11:37:08.074-04:00I plan to use it to test out people for our 25.

We are starting in flex and will promote from flex to the 25. No longer will the 25 be "take whoever shows" it will be earn your spot and flex will be where people learn and prove their worth. I am going to like it for that.<br /><br />I too will treat flex as a real raiding. It is what normal should really have been like to begin with in my opinion. A place where you can teach people. That is what normal is as I see it. But I'll use this for it. I love that we do not need to bring a set team number however. I am sort of at a toss up if I would want that in normal or not.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-62163530180090719822013-09-06T10:46:28.745-04:002013-09-06T10:46:28.745-04:00Yeah, that's the current plan, try to get 15 a...Yeah, that's the current plan, try to get 15 actually interested folks (and maybe a few "eh, if I'm bored I'll come along"s as well) with enough off-specs or alts to deal with missing people. I still intend to treat it as a scheduled raid, though, this won't be a "show if you feel like it" like doing a weekly group LFR run, it'll just be a raid that if someone doesn't show we likely won't have to fill the spot. Attendance will still be required for at least the core group.<br /><br />One aspect of flex that I haven't seen mentioned much is that it'll be a GODSEND for guilds/raids who are looking to test players out. I'm expecting there will be significantly increased cross-guild cooperation (for non-cutthroat guilds, at least) as a result of flex, you'll have raiders from various guilds running in each others guild flex runs and probably forming some casual alliances for normal/heroic raid fill-ins... I love that and it's not something you can really work toward with normal raids, you don't want to displace a regular for a potential ally but bringing one extra body to a flex run shouldn't hurt and has some significant potential benefit. <br /><br />In my perfect world I'll have done flex raids with a bunch of guilds on the server by the time MoP ends just to meet some new people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-70488762995949108422013-09-06T07:31:30.788-04:002013-09-06T07:31:30.788-04:00@ Tiggi
I could go through a list of dozen reason...@ Tiggi<br /><br />I could go through a list of dozen reasons 25 man is easier. They would all be based on facts. So being I experienced those said fact, even if the results of only one person, it is my "opinion" that I believe the "fact" that 25 man is easier.<br /><br />There will always be arguments either way and people will have their opinion, but some years ago someone did some research and they were much more knowledgeable than I could ever be on the fact and they said if you remove the "human factor" that 25 man raids are mathematically easier.<br /><br />It is my opinion that I believe that fact. Call it my opinion, but that does not change anything.<br /><br />People will always tend to lean toward what they play as harder and what they don't as easier. As when a 25 goes to 10 they already have experience so 10s seem easier and when 10s go to 25 they think it is easier because they have done it on 10.<br /><br />That is a fact you can not argue. People with experience in one will always find the other easier.<br /><br />I am only talking from a simple numbers perspective removing the human factor and from that perspective 25s are easier. <br /><br />Add the human factor, and then 25s can become MUCH harder. But that has nothing to do with the content, it has to do with the people. The content remains easier.<br /><br />@James<br /><br />Removing the human factor and taking the content at face value, that is where the assessment that 25s are easier comes from.<br /><br />Personally. As a raid leader. I would be happy never to step into a 25 man again. I love it, but as a raider, not as a leader.<br /><br />The hardest part of a 25 man is getting the people and setting up the logistics. I think most people consider that is what makes 25s harder.<br /><br />If people want to say 25s are harder to assemble, harder to organize, harder to position, harder to assign, harder to keep more people happy, etc, I would agree hands down.<br /><br />But removing said human factor, I would not.<br /><br />The only real thing easier about 10 man is you get to choose the 10 best players to go in. That is what makes 10s seem easier. You are taking the best people, no carrying, no slackers, no people that stand in everything. That is why you need to remove the human factor when considering which is harder.<br /><br />@ Both<br /><br />In the end you base it on how you feel when doing it. I know when I want to "relax" I do 25 man. Because, in my opinion, that is what 25 man was made for.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-43121501838161719932013-09-06T02:21:34.615-04:002013-09-06T02:21:34.615-04:0025m is easier in a what-if scenario.

What if we had the required roster of 30-like-minded players, similar in skill and willingness to learn, same availability, class-balanced, with good computers that don't make framerates crawl, healers that know how to heal and use external cooldowns and so on. Heroic-wise, it's nothing to laugh about.<br />I don't want to start and argument over which one is easier and which one isn't. I have experience both ways, of heavily overtuned 25m fights (Ultraxion anyone?) and vice-versa (try Megaera week 1). But carrying people like you were able to do back in Wrath is not really an option on 25m these days.

They never did the first fight and when they got the ball on them they did not move fast enough.<br /><br />You know my approach, I explain what they did wrong and how to do it better next time and we move on. But their approach was, if you can not move when you have the ball you have no business raiding. They went off on a rant about it. The term elitist scum immediately popped to mind.<br /><br />Funny part was, they could not get past the second boss. While working on it with them they said they never got past the second door. I worked with them that week and the week after and had them finally get through the fight.<br /><br />But I always think back to them giving an elitist tongue lashing to someone new to the fight instead of explaining it to them so they do not made the same mistake again and think, what would anyone want to raid with them.<br /><br />We will get you nice and geared. Looking forward to running with you again. Maybe I can get you a spot on the third team so you can teach them something. ;)TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-42141767862327111342013-09-05T08:51:09.810-04:002013-09-05T08:51:09.810-04:00I think that is why I do not like doing heroics my...I think that is why I do not like doing heroics myself.

I offer to make them gems and enchants. I do everything I can to help them get better. If they do not get better than it is their choice.<br /><br />If I were doing something wrong I would rather someone tell me what I was doing wrong then to just push me to the side with no reason. So I told the 25 they will be starting in flex because that is more suited for where they should be. When they down flex they can move up to normal.<br /><br />Might someone be offended by that, sure, but we are a casual guild that is there to have fun and it is not fun wiping on a boss they are not capable of downing. But it would be fun learning in an easier format that they can do it in.<br /><br />Also, there is a reason I never link my information here. Because no one knows who I am. It allows my posts to be true and real. If I knew people were reading it I would try and sugar coat things and than what would be the reason to write it? It would become complete fiction.<br /><br />Like I said however. I tell people exactly what I think. I do not hold it back. I've told people that they can not come until they get better. I've told people they can not come until they get a stable connection. I've told people that we had too many healers, for example, and they are the lowest one so they sit. Etc.<br /><br />That is why I am looking forward to flex. Now I have more room to teach them. It allows me to bring that low healer, the under performing person that really needs a lot of practice, the guy with the connection issues.<br /><br />All people that flex fits better. Is telling them that wrong? I do not think so.<br /><br />I would rather tell someone flex is more for them than tell them I can not take them at all.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-45403999271069978202013-09-05T07:59:54.001-04:002013-09-05T07:59:54.001-04:00It is not a myth, it is an fact based on experienc...It is not a myth, it is an fact based on experience. While it might be anecdotal evidence at best from my experiences 25s have always been easier.<br /><br />Even back when 25s offered better gear they were easier. 10 man groups in lesser gear would join for a 25 ICC with a few pugs and roflsstomp through it. But 10 people from the better geared 25 man could not get past 6 bosses on 10 man. 25s have always been easier. Even when they offered better gear.<br /><br />Perhaps things are different on heroic level. I have not raided anything 25 man heroic since wrath. The only heroic experience I have had since then is in 10s and 10s only. But for normals it is absolutely not a myth. 25s are much easier. Your mileage might vary as you are speaking from heroic 25 and I am speaking from normal 25. <br /><br />The other night, which most would call a fail night, we went into a 25 with under geared alts and some really fresh players, as in 480 or so item level. The top DPS on the first fight was over 150K less than the top DPS normally (308K to 144K). It all went down form there. Just to show you this was "not" an over geared group. It was 2 mains, 10 alts and 13 new players, 3 of which had never done it and 1 who had never even done it in LFR.<br /><br />We only got three bosses down in a hour and a half which was all the time we had. Like I said, nothing impressive. But try doing 10 man with that group and tell me you would ever get down horridon? I dare you to because you would be dead wrong.<br /><br />We even lost 7 people when sul got empowered because there was not enough DPS to burn him. We used our three battle res on 2 healers and a tank and still beat the fight.<br /><br />Losing 7 people in 25 is like losing 3 people in 10. Try any fight, I mean any fight, where you lose 3 people and they are not over geared characters to carry the group and see if you get the boss down. Not going to happen. Sorry.<br /><br />It is not a myth. 25s are easier.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-74098321569091599452013-09-05T02:46:56.883-04:002013-09-05T02:46:56.883-04:0025s being so easy to carry people is a bit of a my...25s being so easy to carry people is a bit of a myth. It seems easier when doing the first few bossese with half the raid at heroic level gear, but at appropriate raid level? no.<br />Take my guild. Our core is around 545+. The second team is around 530+. There are also a couple of players around 520. So basically, more than capable to handle heroic level content. I'm looking over last night's logs. Hc Horridon, 11:52. Almost hitting enrage. We only lost one dps at around the 11th minute mark. We did have 7 healers (due to some of them not having a decent offspec), but... it's hard to say it was easy to carry these people. I assume that at the time when we did hc Horridon on 10m (at around 520 iLvl) it would've been impossible to down it in 25m without a full group of progression-oriented people.<br />Yeah, I do recall doing normal Horridon in 25m in the fourth (?) week and it was easy-mode, but then again, we already had full clear and knowledge from the 10m. Also, while the first half was easy enough, we ended it at Twins, were it was clear there wasn't enough dps.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18173436197557929355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-70614092188387698572013-09-04T22:40:17.057-04:002013-09-04T22:40:17.057-04:00Anon, Grumpy's former Guild Leader:
You actua...Anon, Grumpy's former Guild Leader:<br /><br />You actually had me laughing out-loud with your description of the formerly second, currently third raid team. Perhaps the best name for it is the Jerk Squad. And ya know, maybe, just maybe as long as they behave in trade/general/guild chat, giving folks of that nature a home to gravitate to is not a bad thing. <br /><br />It ain't how I would have handled it when I was the guild lead, but if it works, it works and so far it sounds fine. LOL, long live the Jerk Squad, and may they come to embrace their name. <br /><br />It really is good to read such a positive report speaking more seriously. <br /><br />I am thinking that maybe I would like to get back into raiding on a flex level, so I suspect in the next few days, when my life allows, I will try to get some guild mates to give me a whirlwind tour of the dungeons and scenarios of Pandaria. You may be called on for that...giving you fair warning.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-11902056893841264262013-09-04T19:30:22.894-04:002013-09-04T19:30:22.894-04:00I hope to use flex to find a new guild or possibly...I hope to use flex to find a new guild or possibly even a new server. <br /><br />After doing Heroic progression in DS, I took a break from raiding in Mists because I was burnt out; raiding 4+hrs two nights a week every week was too much for me. DS wasn't super hard, but heroics are still heroics and not everyone is cut out for them. I did it, but it was too stressful. It stopped being fun.<br /><br />And then most of my guild/raid team moved to Proudmoore.<br /><br />So I hope to use flex to actually have some fun raiding again.Jaegernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-77571749164233774002013-09-04T18:38:29.416-04:002013-09-04T18:38:29.416-04:00Hmm, how do your guildies usually react to your ne...Hmm, how do your guildies usually react to your negative/constructive criticism posts? I ask this because I remember a one of your posts where your candid assessment of your 25 man raid team resulted in people quitting the guild.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
