At the moment we have a single forum topic called 'Eternity Vault'.  Whilst I do not raid, it seems to me that there are more instances than this and certainly more bosses.  Presently there is only a single thread with anything like tactics in it.   Take a look at the DMR Boss Compendium section as  co0ntrast and see the degree of member input and discussion - ansd sharing between raid groups.

One of the things we seem to lack in SWTOR at the moment is a place to gather our tactics and to discuss and (more more importantly) disseminate to other players the tactics we use to defeat an encounter.   This does several things, it stops people who were not in the instance at the time from learning, stops Blue from catching Red and makes Vladic the fount of all knowledge.  All of these things are bad!  

I think we need a proper Boss Compendium section like the WoW people use and get people to build the knowledge base into our forum to help ALL members.  

Discuss!

I think this is essential for experienced and non experienced raider to be able to get information and knowledge on the fights and raids for each OP. It would also be good if the Red group contributed a good amount due to the fact they have been there and done it which would give a good in site into what is to be expected.

I can make a mirror of DMR's section. if Toby tips me the nod and the wink I'll get right on it. In fact it's such a sensible idea and I can't conceive that he would say no, that I'll get on it anyway :norty:

Whatever's gone wrong it's not my fault.
