The one main thing in AOC, the raids, are actually becoming undoable now on EU servers. Many people are being thrown out of the raids by some kindof bug. They even nicknamed it the 'raidbug'. Even funcom officials call it that. The worst thing is, that after a month of this occuring, no fix is there yet. Lets hope the fix for tomorrow will fix it, but I doubt it.

Cockblocking the raiders with intentionally broken mechanics or bugs, then later denying them while issuing a "retune" patch for the content is common practice.

 

It's due to a lack of ability on their parts, I think.

Raids have always been bugged or exploitable, this is nothing new.

I had my tier 2 helmet a month before tier 2 raiding was released =P Exploiting raids was more fun than actualy doing them at one point. Funcom has great ideas, implements some perfectly and ruins/botches alot.

Happened to the guild I was raiding with in Kyliki. We had to start over. However the complaints were not as bad because the second time around big boxes dropped quite a bit from trash mobs and Kyliki had a pretty good size drop.

I agree though it needs to be fixed. It may come in the House of Crom update. I'm to lazy to look at test server patch notes to see if it has been fixed.
