In this interview he talks about large groups for pve end game and pvp groups and talks about 24 being the magic number

I know a few of you have been wondering what the raid sizes will be, so i thought i would post it here...

enjoy!

It will be interesting if they decide to go with 24 people for their Adventure Zones. I'm one of those people who would prefer it being that high. I always preferred 25 mans over 10 mans back in WoW, and was happy that my guild stayed 25 man even when Cata came out. So was thinking it would have been around 12-20 players, but, again, I'm fine with 24.

Another thing that interested me in that interview was when he talked about the main quest and how you can just ignore it and come back to it later. I'm wondering if the main story levels with you. So if I'm level 15 and on, let's say, the 10th quest of the main story, but I want to put it on hold and decide to do it again at level 22 it would obviously scale up to my level. I really hope this is how they do it, because it would be nice to never be able to overpower the main story by just putting it on hold and then powering through it once you hit level 50.

It seems to appear that PvE content is going to be either 4 or 24, ignoring the medium of 10 or 12 that you see in other MMOs. This may not be a bad idea, focusing balance for three different group sizes may indeed take time away that could better be utilized just simply making more and better raids/dungeons.

Personally I'm not really interested in the pve endgame but for PVP the 24man group, or "battle group" known from other games worked very well. It was about the right size to control for sieges or strategic attacks and did not feel like a zerg that was just numbers of people.

I would hope they scale the solo quest with your level, Fingers very tightly crossed for this feature!

I am guessing the adventure zones will have a range of mobs or encounters for various sizes of groups, and obviously the hardest content should be tailored to the maximum number of players in a raid, but there should be plenty of mobs in there tailored for casual roaming groups of 2 and 3 people and more

I really want to know what the group windows UI look like or even if one exists? especially from a healing standpoint...

Nice. 20-24 is what I was hoping for.

Still kinda small but much better then a group of 10 or something like that.

I was going to say the same thing...24 seems pretty large. I am currently unaware of a game that has anything larger than 25 man raids.

WoW had 40 man raid, i personally don't like it that large.

True, I kind of forgot about that because of the rarity of 40 person raids. So out of correction, I am unaware of an MMO that has more than 25 man raids for its regular design structure.
