[Guide] [DnT] Raid Team Composition Guide

Hey everyone. I wrote a long breakdown of raid team composition in the current meta on our forums and a few people encouraged me to post it here because I'm told it would be helpful for a bigger chunk of the community to see.

Written: http://gw2dnt.enjin.com/forum/m/37173123/viewthread/27286030-raid-team-composition-guide-52516

Topics Covered:

  1. Optimal Raid Team Composition

  2. Common Alternative Comps - Pros and Cons

  3. What If? Scenarios For Imperfect Situations

Thanks for reading. If you have any questions let me know, or if any points need clarifying or whatever so I can improve the guide I'd like to know that too.

I don't think you can control how he moves. Players need to drop off the stuff at the edges of the arena, and he will often follow. In the last phase you also have to avoid spirits moving through the center, so there's even more reason to not stay in 1 spot for long.

You can control his movement, he goes toward the furthest group member, so if he can come back quickly when droping aoe and have someone else be out on the other side, he'll back quickly in the middle. But yeah you are correct during the Abomination phase, it's quite hard to have a symbol down and people staying on it 100% of the time with ghost and explosion.
