Well, you could do, since you haven't really started. What are you going to do with these non-existent as-good-as-raid-quality weapons? Solo things quicker?
Quote:Besides, what makes you think that raiders deserve items that are so much better than non-raiders? 3/4 of a 40 man raid presses 2 buttons and at best knows how to follow directions and NOTHING ELSE.
What makes me think that is the sheer effort I've put in with my guild to learn encounters and defeat bosses, which amounts to considerably more than pressing two buttons and following directions. If you really think that's what's involved, I can only conclude that you haven't done much beyond BWL, or that you're a really crap addition to a raiding team.
Quote:If you join a guild that has even ZG on farming status (and that's basically all semi-established guilds on semi-established servers), you will get better gear in a week than someone who does not raid and who plays 24/7 for a year.
Still not seeing your point, here. If it's so easy to find a guild that is running ZG, then join it, run ZG, and upgrade your stuff. There has to be SOME measure by which achieving goals with multiple players is rewarded over soloing in a massively multiplayer game, otherwise there would be absolutely no point in it being multiplayer.
You don't know what you're talking about.
