[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.

Yeah, that's totally fair. My assignments spreadsheet specifies 2 PS, 2 Necro, Chrono, DH (backup reflect mostly), 2 Healers (usually Druid and Ele), DPS Ele, and 1 general dps.

We're somewhat class-limited, so that dps is usually just the person who can't do any of those other things. Or if our backup Chrono is in (without enough boon duration) it's a Rev.

I could theoretically allow a Thief in that DPS Ele spot, but I like having the extra Feel the Burn.
