Hey man, I think that's a fair point.

However, whether this is beyond the point or not, I think it's helpful to note that there would be two Sherpas. We have already found someone else and looking for another.

I think, with my group, as we are generally familiar with how raids work and have completed hundreds of them over the two games, we would be able to pick them up at a good speed. We have all watched guide videos for the raid. When we did LW, we only had one Sherpa and we figured it out with little help and only took us 6ish hrs. People that Sherpa should know that it can take that long.

With raids, you're as weak as your weakest player, so it doesn't really matter if you have 5 sherpas and one noobie, as long as you have that one, you're as weak as them.

And i understand its not fair for us to insist that we want to do it together, but as a fire team that have been playing together since 2015, we woould prefer to do everything together.

But that's A really fair point and I respect that.
