First off I’d like to say that I got nothing but love for u dev’s. I think you are probably the most hard working dev’s for any mmo out there. Judging the game from launch to me it felt like this was an almost perfect game everything is perfect sound, graphics, story, gear, pvp, wvw, the size of the maps, the events everything except the bosses, at least most of them. I dunno if the case was that so much time was spent on other things that boss fights took a back seat and that’s why they came so generic and so easy. The bosses released after launch like TA atherblade , Teq revamped and most of the fractals in particular Mai Trin and Thaumanova I love those fights very very good mechanics fun and interesting. I wish it had more fights like those a ton more just cuz I like a challenge and also I like the idea of not being able to have a full zerk team else that fight would be nearly impossible. Maybe the fights were created easy on purpose to please the casual players but you’ve got to understand that there are players out there that want that challenge. Players who want boss fights so difficult that it takes them 50 tries to get as frustrating as it may be but once u beat that boss the sense of accomplishment is more rewarding than anything else.

On the topic though with regards to raids I’d like to see these in the game, let me state my case here. The lag is terrible, sometimes for open world events u get hundreds of people doing the same boss and half the time I cant see what I’m doing and I don’t feel like i really make a difference cuz all I do is spam 1 and hope for the best. If this was an instanced fight however and limited to a group of say 40 or 30 people then there wouldn’t even be lag, I’d be able to participate more and contribute more and feel that sense of accomplishment. Another thing is each world boss has a pre-event, sometimes you’ll have hundreds of people just sitting at where the final boss will spawn whilst only 2 or 3 people do the pre-events. That’s not fair if it was instanced everyone would have to participate in the pre-events and pull their weight leading up to the last boss. I love this game not leaving it cuz as I said everything is perfect except one thing really. Add instanced raids in the game and make it optional so the casual players or whoever else can stick to doing the same bosses they are comfortable with but players like me can still do the raids for the challenge. Make the fights hard and make it so that you’ll need some support type or control type players. In the game there are alot of people who’d be glad to hear that they’re needed even if for 1 fight in a raid that you’d need a support built person.
