I AM NOT asking for RAID content. Just raid type grouping for existing content.

My guild runs guild missions and while setting up for them I for the first time find myself missing a feature from WoW I miss the raid group setup
the small group within a large group concept would make coordination on many things easier Especially in things like guild challenges where I could see who was in what group and be able to say group 1 come defend this point instead of trying to memorize 20 people’s classes by the sound of their voices in mumble.

I’m talking something as simple as the original raid window from wow would be quite sufficient.

basically a group of parties that form a squad, i have seen these in other mmos which they can combine parties to form a squad

the commander icon do allow squad but it doesn’t display the locations, hp and classes of these squad members, it would be really nice if the squad function is improved further

This would be ideal! I find the biggest problem running guild missions is keeping track of who is in what group and where they all are. Instead I ask for volunteer party leaders to monitor their own groups, but it would be much easier if, as commander, I could arrange the groups…

Again last night while running the Quaggan challenge (failed) and Blightwater (also failed) I found myself extremely frustrated by the lack of group control. I would like to push this back to the top for more responces. I can’t begin to imagine how much easier these and other things would be if I could simply say
Group 1 go here. and Group 2 go there.
During rushes even Group 1 and 2 run, Group 3 escort would be nice.
Heck even treks… Group 1 start at the top of the list group 2 start at the bottom.
While we don’t have enough to do so high level bounties would be much easier to divide up who goes for what target.
The ability to monitor and insure balanced groups…. to know what group needs another person when in the middle of the event someone pipes up “Hey my cat just puked on my kid I gotta go.” (yes that has been heard in mumble).

even the ability to get an accurate count of how many people we actually have would be an improvement.

Meh, I think it’s fine the way it is. It seems like you just want to have an iron grip of control over your guild mates instead of playing with them and letting their skills,abilities and know how shine though.

Organization is great, but it takes all of the fun out of the experience for people who are not in control.
