Is it time to change how Mythic IDs works?
Since Mythic raids have become more and more puggable every expansion, and more people are doing them than ever before, is it time for Blizzard to rethink how Mythic lockouts work?
I constantly see Group Finder listings looking for replacements on bosses like “Vorasius” or “Fallen King,” usually because people leave after the first boss or after they either get their item or don’t get it. The problem is that it becomes almost impossible to continue or refill the group since everyone is tied to that specific raid ID. Even worse, if someone who isn’t saved joins the raid, they still get locked even if they don’t kill anything.
There has to be a better way for Blizzard to handle this. I get that Mythic is primarily designed for guilds, but at this point people are pugging 1–5~ bosses regularly every week. Maybe it’s time for Blizzard to make changes that better support Mythic pugging in general.
