Yeah, tracking DKP in a bunch of 10 man groups would be a nightmare and probably completely unnecessary. Free rolls would do just fine when you’re only rolling against one or two other people.
10 mans at the beginning TOTC were kind of a clusterfuck. But I think a lot of that was attributed to a lack of leadership and organization. Once Cuno took over the runs, they went very smoothly. Between myself, Abe, Furly, Jack and a few others, I think we have plenty of leadership personalities that should be able to step up to the plate to run a group.
You make a good point though about the difficulties when one person doesn’t show up. That could suck. Cause it’s not like you can run a WL for 10 mans. Maybe a better idea would be to have two strong 10 man groups that run during the week that could bring in alt/friend backups as needed and then run a couple pick up groups on the weekend. That’s pretty much the plan we have currently for 25 mans and actually does function kind of like a WL for 10 mans.
I dunno. I’m not saying that 10 mans are perfect and problem free or even that they are totally the way to go. I’m just not thrilled at all about how this expansion ended and in general with how I feel that there is always a portion of our raid that is actually making the kills more difficult. I don’t see that as challenging. I see that as highly frustrating. If we were raiding with 25 strong players and a WL with 2-3 more, then my opinion on this would be completely different. But we’re not.
