Guild Wars 2

To add a little more since i hit the cap lol. As far as the zerking arguement goes, this is very easily by passable by making the right kind of mechanics or mechanics that require way to much dodge, movement, or even have a phase where the boss goes immune, or reflects damage.

I know this is kind of an old thread, but i share the same point of view as the OP. So i wanted to share some exciting news I found, keep in mind this was about 4 months ago but is still very exciting. http://gw2.game-guide.fr/interview-exclusive-de-mike-zadorojny/ That will take you to a interview where raiding was discussed and confirmed. In case your not on chrome or another browser that will auto-translate for you here is a good translation of the interview. http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1314759-French-interview-confirms-raids-and-housing-coming-to-GW2 So there you have it GW2 will be implementing its own twist on raids. Note that this does not say World bosses or events it actually is structured raids. No word on when this will take effect but i suspect it will be legendary nonetheless . Also for my 2-since i think that they could easily implement raiding the exact same way as pvp. Everyone has the same gear. Either A, make only cosmetic or no gear at all drop from bosses that your character can use, or B, (and my personal hope) Let there be great pve gear that drops from raiding but can not be used anywhere else i.e. Structured pvp when your there you have a whole new set of gear traits ect.
