    I 100% understand what you are saying, coming from a game that had 10/20man options, also normal and heroic mode...compared to the current rift modes seems light.
    I have already started a few similar threads and didn't receive much support. I don't really understand why people are against more difficulty and size options in raids.

    I wouldn't mind a 10-man version of all content tbh, 10-man akylios ftw.

    That would be terrible.

    They'd have to completely change the fight, how can you do it with 2 tanks when progressing? Do you make Mind Decay 2 people which is way easier than 3?

    Some fights could be done with 10 people, like Zilas potentially.
    But certainly not Akylios.

    If a HK, ROS & GSB chronicle can be made, its possible. Think your being a bit dramatic.

    i agree, personally dont want to see 10 man versions of 20 man raids

    All fights can be made friendly for 10-man, on most bosses it's all about reducing damage on some mechanics / nerfing hitpoints.

    A chronicle is in no way even vaguely similar to a 10 man raid.

    I'm pretty sure I pointed out several ways in which the Akylios fight does not mechanically translate to a 10man format.

    You've made my point for me. Hence, I don't see why it can't be done.
    If it can be changed so significantly to be made a chronicle I would imagine it would require about the same time to re-tune the mechanics and HP to suit 10man. (Acknowledged, it would be easier to strip some mechanics out completely for a chronicle than re-balance most for a 10man). I'm certainly no expert programmer but seems logical.

    No disrespect intended, but the trend I am seeing from previous threads and now (minus Haipaa), is that players that are significantly through HK are defending their interests in keeping development flowing in 20man rather than diversifying content to suit a larger player base.

    Personally think there should be MM content for every raid/dungeon.

    Makes the content more interesting after its cleared, instead of farming the instance for 4 months waiting for the next teir. I'd love for there to be a MMHK so that we dont clear it in a single night, usually 2hours.

    We've always done it with 2 tanks only, for the first start. A 3rd tank would just sit around / help picking up adds in P1/P2, which is easy enough.
    Just saying...
