90% of 40 player raids are absolute nightmares. This is not right.
But imagine if you grew up with and struggled alongside those 40 plays for your whole life.
Agreed. The sweet spot was ten man raids. You know everyone is pulling their weight. With 40 half the raid was slacking since those bosses didn’t need a lot of coordination.
I think the 20man mythic is the perfect place when you add in game balance considerations.
I agree, 10 was the most fun I ever had raiding in WoW by a long shot for a multitude of reasons.
FFXIV added 24 player hard raids called “chaotic raids” that’s absolutely a nightmare. They have a few 48 player raids that are more midcore content that works well, but 24 is super common and works well for other casual content. But most midcore/hardcore raids are 8 player, and that feels like a good spot.
Yeah I did the 8man raids, loved them. Kind of miss doing them
The male-hunter female gatherer dichotomy is an anthropological myth used to reinforce gender stereotypes.
Interesting read, still leaves a lot of stuff unanswered but some aspects were crazy, like when they said that they found remains buried with weapons and just assumed it was a male, until someone looked at the bones and found the opposite. Like isn’t that your job to check things before making assumptions?
This explains the latest student-teacher ratios out there.
Just came by to say hello and kudos to WoW players. Raiding has been most fun part of the game for me (the “interact with humans” part, story and lore aside)
OOP never played raid finder.
bro has clearly never played an AV pug
Which version? Alterac changed so many times you can’t really make that statement. Some were ok for pugs, some were idiotic.
The original 50 man AV
Is this actually legit?
Robin Dunbar, an anthropologist, found a relationship between primate brain size and average social group size, and extrapolated that to humans, giving a comfortable group size of around 150 people, known as Dunbar’s number. If you work on the principal that that would be about the average size of a tribe in an unstressed hunter society, it would seem quite pkausible that a hunting group would be around 50 people. It’s large enough to take down pretty much anything you’d want to hunt, and small enough to coordinate efficiently.
As far as i know, it was typically around 100 - 120 people and before i knew that i read somewhere that around 100 is the number of relationships the brain can handle.
It’s a fairly nebulous number, it’s going to be different for each individual, and Dunbar was only positing an approximate relationship between brain size and group size. Even if humans can manage 150 or more relationships, it makes sense to keep your group smaller than that to allow for external relationships too.
Yeah, World of Warcraft is a real thing
