Guild Wars 2

I’ve been experimenting for weeks. I’d advertise a raid squad as “EXP Wing x Boss x”, and accepted everyone without checking gears/LI/KP. 90% of the time the group failed to kill the boss even after multiple attempts. So, being picky is needed. People say having 200 LI means nothing, but I disagree. It actually matters.

I imagine things will be much better if there was an in-game voice chat for squads.

What is the purpose of this thread?

The things you are telling here are not new.

- LIs + many KPs are most often an indicator of raid experience but they are no guarantee for a safe kill. On the other hand the probability that a boss attempt will succeed is better in a group with a higher LI requirement. People who disagree have to go back and learn the mechanisms behind “probability”.

- Ingame voice chats are not needed because you can easily clear bosses without it and besides that you have the possibility to use TS, Discord, Skype etc.

You could also insist on using discord today. Let us know if that helps or not.

Besides that, you can say that groups you organize do better with a minimum LI requirement; that doesn’t mean it’s always true. Is it possible that you aren’t giving the experiments the same chance to succeed, because of an unconscious bias that LI matters?
