Probably guild. I think I'm going to go with 12 players so it fits neatly into 2 parties. During boss fights and stuff, I'll just say the rest of the raid group is holding off the boss's minions or something.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

... Oh right, all SAO's raids are fucking 36man or some insanity.

I had forgotten that.

Cool, could we do a watered down version of recruitment to get bonusses in those fights? Or like get members to do odd jobs for us like gather resources?

SAO raids had no number limit, they were just smart enough to take a hand picked team rather then a huge group of fodder who'd get in the way.

By bonuses do you mean Cannon Fodder NPCs? Maybe.

Actually, they were remarkably well organized. Only Diabel died, and that was due to his own stupidity.

Well you said the other members would be around to deal with the random mobs. I was thinking like we recruit a bunch of tanks and they soak up a bit of boss damage. Or a bunch of archers who hurt it a bit each round.
Just small bonusses to show that the guild is supporting us to beat the Boss.

Mostly though I like the second idea, a large percentage in the show didn't ever go near the frontline or bosses, while we're doing missions we could have the weaker guys gathering herbs and ores and crap for us so we don't have to spend ages gathering up supplies. Between missions.

Like I could use a few to gather up ores for me so between jobs I can make new gear for the group without needing to spend half a dozen turns mining first.

Hey, what's the average hit% of low-level mobs? How about bosses?

This is important information :P

Bosses? High, very high. They had tanks in SAO for a reason lol the bosses tend to have huge range or be fast as hell or both.

And we never even saw the top 30 odd floor bosses.

I would assume that low-levels are okay, but skilled players will be like "nah, nah bro, see, you can't do shit, m'kay?"
