..or more like an idea maybe.
Im not sure this is even possible, but I got this idea to perhaps make an encounter for everybody. I have looked and searched, but didnt find anything similar, but sorry if its already out there. Im kinda surprised if it isnt.
Here goes:
It is much like Marionette. Several lanes/gates, where we have to fight to Clear With a raidforce of several People. Those gates/lanes need to be held open, as they are attacked like Marionette, but continiously. Lots of People need to stay to defend it through the entire raid.
When the gates/lanes are open, we can send in a “taskforce” or whatever we like to Call it, a smaller Group of specialists, to take Down something, solve something or whatnot. And you cant do the one without the other.
To hold the gates we need strength in numbers, to do the inside we need strenght in skills. And everything have to be done to get the reward, wich everybody gets.
The taskforce is something you need to voulenteer for, as it should be possible for everybody to get in. But it cant be totally free, as I imagine most People will want to be in. So a system of some kind, map exploration, kills, pvp kills, fractallvl or something. I dont know excactly.
As the raid goes on, there should be updates, maybe voicemessages “base one green” or something, so all can feel as a part wherever they are.
Maybe we could do this in Orr, like we need to take and hold several temples to open a special Dungeon?
The Whole point is to try to combine Casuals and hardcores, maybe it is impossible.
Im sorry for my English, I feel Im lacking in vocalbury and grammar.
