Unless they follow his suggestion closely and make raid style groups where only the players in its deaths actually count...

Any other issues? No? Okay.

Bourne, he said implement proper raid groups as in linking 30-40 people all into one group for the boss

That works only in worlds with no competition, aka Morrigan. In a world with competition two raids group could gather and u cant make a boss immune only to specific ppl who are under the same conditions as other ppl. What Bourne said is correct.

Suppose it only works for the raid in question AFTER lock, so 20 deaths after lock for the raid that gets the lock? Any players that leave group automatically add +X deaths to the remaining raid death count, after which he gains a "Fury" buff or something to that extent making him invincible to all until a complete wipe/reset

@Aileron's idea,

The only way it could work is if each PLAYER attacking the boss is treated separately by the boss. So each player can only die say 5 times. Once a player dies 5 times any add or boss the player dealt damage to becomes immune to the player and the player loses lock and damage dealt (in the same way you do when you die) until the boss/add is killed or reset. Ofcourse logging out or leaving the area should not reset your death count.

In addition, if possible, the boss should switch aggro to the players that havent reached their 5 death count yet, so that other players cant be used as sacrifice to negate damage to the rest. That way kill count can start straight away and you can still compete for the boss with less possibility of exploits.

The biggest issue i have is rival clans griefing you on the boss by dragging adds or spam calming the tank and killing your players to increase your death count. There would have to be less adds that do AOE attacks and Calm must be restricted to Raid group members only so that it cant be used by someone outside of raid group on players in the group.

Previous posts already showed problem with making it after lock - you can just make many smaller groups that are all equally powerful so that lock only happens very late. You could even have everyone solo attacking the boss.

That and even though it eliminates my previous points. What if someone dies and logs out and doesn't return to fight? What if server lags and causes death? What if someones connection lags and causes death? What if someone decides to be a jerk and die on purpose anyways? There are still many flaws with this scenario that I don't know how people haven't noticed it.

If the whole server lags that's and everyone lags and multiple people die? No idea what you're talking about. The difference between Aileron and Immortals suggestions is that with Ailerons one person effects the WHOLE raid which isn't right. With Immortals it would take multiple people to die numerous times to mess up the raid which is acceptable.
