Hello! been raiding alot this past month and for me atleast 7 man raids are the best! i often land on 5-7k points and everything is cool, but to find or make a team of 7 people can be a real pain in the ass, takes all from 30 minutes up to hours just to get a full team, i would suggest maybe having a slight nerf on the raids with lower amount of people so its possible to acheive about same points as a duo, or 4 or 5 man! cus right now raids are a little dead content as i only see same group of people raiding, i think this way it would be alot better! -pothead

I agree on scaling raids to the people in so you can solo/duo, might make raids active again, but i don't agree on the same points as a 7 man.

 

If you're wanting to scale difficulty you'd have to scale points too otherwise they'd be no point in a 7 man as 2-3 or even solo would be so much easier for the same points.


No longer playing 'ill max soon' my focus is on maxing my Classic.

I agree that there should be a way to make 1/2 ppl raids do able, and it's hard to find a group, some ideas always would be nice to see.

Basically what max said. 

 

I support if we make it scaling.

Like max said scaling raids would be a good idea, shouldn't be punished for not getting a bigger team to do raids.

Would be faster yes, however your loot potential in a duo would be far greater then in a 7 man if points weren't scaled.

yes, no, maybe. I do think raids should be viable with smaller groups. Scaling was introduced a few updates ago but it didn't quite hit the spot, but I feel like it would be really hard to scale raids down in a way it would be viable. Atm it takes time to find a raids team stand alone a good raids team. If you would be able to get the same speed and points with 2 man, you will get duos off raid pros grinding out the items (since they will be able to do 15 mins raids with 1 min in between). This means that people getting into raids will never be able to find a team because all the good raiders will be doing duos together.

 

Raids are meant to be in a team, I do see the problem in it taking way to long to find a 7 man team nowadays, so I would rather see good scaling down to 5 man teams rather then 2 man teams to keep the raids feeling alive.

 

I'm not saying I don't want scaling down so that doing 2 man raids will be viable, I just feel like it shouldn't be as good as 7 or 5 man raids.

 

Conclusion, i would like to see 5 man aids being viable and almost as good as 7 man raids, but I feel like raid duos being viable will hurt the community to much.

Quoting Hondenei. We've had a major raids overhaul update over a month ago, and scaling was one of the changes.

It's indeed easier to do duos, solos, but players barely do it from what I've seen. I can agree it's a hassle to look for at least 7man raid nowadays, which didn't occur months back before the update.

 

You can do raids with 4man just as well if you have a decent team. Doesn't necessarily have to 7. But of course if there's a beginner it can feel slightly challenging. In conclusion, I agree with what mostly Hondenei said. Would like to see more raid related updates to improve the current state of it.
