	Xp in raids is really cool idea. Always nice to see fail EN Mod pug because group of melees can't kill Abbot in 15 minutes for that 30k xp from raid. Or fail EH DoJ because 2/3 people can't be arsed to contribute. It's not like you can get 300 k from Spies and Mirror in 15 mins both.

	If von5 falls into the raid category. I would expect folks to only run that part twice a day and get more folks good at the pieces of it.

I prefer raids to be motivated by something non XP, because I'm fucking bored of leveling over and over.

It's one thing if the raid starts short man and you join after the fact and pike the entrance for completion. I'm totally fine with that. But if you are in the raid from the get go and will be keeping any raid loot you pull, then fucking contribute.

Seriously though, update 14 (MOTU) was probably the best in my opinion. I know many think that was the decline of the game and it is probably true. But in terms of spicing things up, update 14 did it for me. It had new mechanics, a lot of new diverse content and actually looked like it had some pride applied in its release. And update 21 (Haunted Halls) was probably the best content in recent times (current dev crew). Only because they didn't have to rely on their own creativity and instead got someone in who is not MMO mechanics focussed. I still play it now for something to do. Update 24 was by far the lamest and tackiest attempt at pimping something as content.

	Sim-Sala-Bim wrote on Aug 27^th, 2015 at 9:56am: It will be back for raids. Cordoban: You are correct. [/quote] That sounds like a boatload of fail. People will ransack VoN for xp. There will probably be Tempest Spine runs since that is F2P and timerless. That's it, because they've always designed raids since VoN to have crappy xp based on a "you're not here for xp" justification. Then again...if the same bonus applies and we're talking about +110% xp for a full raid group...I could see an elite BB raid train for fresh 20s being fun and decent xp.
