How to form a raid in 2.5 (while it's bugged)

[Pecannius]

Finally tracked down a reliable way to make a raid without bugging it.
The goal of steps 1-3 is to make a 2 person raid. Can skip to step 4 if you are in a 2-person group that's in raid.
1) Person 1 group invite person 2.
2) Person 1 raid invites person 3 (either by themself or in a group of 2).
3) Person 3 leaves raid.
4) Person 1 invites person 3/4 (in a 2-man group).
5) Person 1 invites person 5/6 (in a 2-man group).

Group leaders can invite the rest of the raid. Your raid should be "sorta good". No guarantees =D

I could reproduce the following (DONT TRY THIS):
P1-6 has a group of 6.
P7-12 has a group of 6.

P1 now sees the 5th/6th person from group 2.
Both groups only see 1 group in the raid.
This is repeatable.

So what you are saying is raids are still being untolerable?

 

[Pecannius]

Yes, anyone who has raided in 2.5 knows the raid bugs are there. It's a known issue. This is just a temporary workaround.

So what you say is, form a raid of 3 2-man groups, then fill up?

Essentially, but also, g1 has to be in a 2person raid before.
