Guild Wars 2

So I think one of the major parts that everyone agrees with is coordination. Not knowing what the hell to do.

This problem should be fixed by NPC commanders. They determine how many people are in the zone and give you a flag with custom event goals to do on the event. As long as you do your part, and everyone does their assigned goals, you pass with appropriate dps, etc.

This still means everyone has to do what they are supposed to do, but you hear voice clips going “Man those turrets, left side needs you!” and it will mean something.
Allowing for a personal failure of the event would allow people to leave and let other people more worthy of it join in. Instead of the goal being to kill Tequatl, it would be to follow the npc commanders orders. Not doing the job you were ordered to do, or hindering other people would cause personal failure.

The most frustrating part about this is knowing you did your job and you still didn’t pass, this would fix this.

While I’m still completely for raids that offer an incredibly steep learning curve, please keep them instanced so people can work on them at their own time and their own people.
