72 people can zerg just about anything with halfway decent raid leadership. So really the only major constraint on your ability to progress is time (or your benefit package). It would be impressive if, instead of recruiting a pile of bodies for Selos, you recruited a select or exclusive 48 and still finished first.

And in two weeks your body of 48 is down to 20. Even if when you recruit 100+, you are down to less then 72 in just a couple weeks and you fight forever after that to continually keep numbers afloat. IT's better to recruit as many as you can then just do splits if you happen to get a lot on for a raid. Churn rate is ridiculous on these servers.

Also for batphones, you can have 100 active members and only 30 will login for it. If you had only 48 you might get 15 etc.

That's not how it works. Having 72 means when we do primetime instances we split our raid into two 36's or three 24 man raids and triple our loot. It also means that we can pursue targets 24/7 in open world, whenever they spawn. If you've got 30 players and half up them don't show up at 4am you probably aren't killing anything. If you've got 72 and half don't show up you're fine.

Plus, attrition is much greater on TLP servers than back on live so maintaining a large roster provides you with the flexibility you need to continue raiding long term.If you look at the guilds that died near the end of the old TLP's, or even guilds on current TLP's it usually not the content but their own membership count that bottlenecks them.

You got Crohn's or something? We sit in ergonomic Gaming chairs and use large Gatorade bottles for bodily functions like civilized people.

powerade bottles have a slightly wider mouth, us Faceless guys obviously all have bigger dicks than average, the extra space is appreciated

I planned on doing another chanter main / druid box combo, but I'm open to new stuffs.

Honestly we aren't low in anything atm. Best bet is to play what you like or whats best in a static group.

Join Faceless! We're such big EQ nerds that if you walk away from Discord for a hour you'll want to read the backlog but it'll be practically impossible! So much hype for Selo!

We announced our DKP system for Selo last night and have been answering questions regarding it all day. Basically set item priced hourly DKP. Over 700 items from Velious and Luclin were hand priced to start our system off.

Join the guild that is known for it's organization and spreadsheets!

That is appealing. On a dating website one time, I wrote "I'm into stats, lists, and organizing." Somehow I didn't end up an incel.
