Unlike dungeons, with the exception of high-level m+, raids require a good deal of understanding about your class and role. Their job is to make sure players understand their role in the fight and assign players to groups based on those tasks. As a result, many groups will have one or more “raid leaders” who focus on coordinating the group. While many of the mechanics are not much more difficult than those seen in mythic+ dungeons, fights are longer, and coordinating 20 or 30 people can be challenging. As far as composition is concerned, there will almost always be 2 tanks 2 to 6 healers, and the rest as damage dealers.Īdditionally, raids take several hours to complete… if your group is able to complete it at all. However, raid groups are larger than dungeons and consist of anywhere from 10 to 30 people. Dungeons and raids in World of Warcraft are similar in that they are focused on killing bosses and trash.
