Sometimes you gotta look deeper

You know, one way to reduce lag
Is reduce the number of people required to complete a quest

All that talk about short manning?
Well, it's easy to do now too,
Think of it,?*
What used to take 12, now takes 6, or 4
So that's gotta reduce lag
Brilliant huh?

So the power creep has been about raising the average
Where you were 50%,
Now it's like 75%

And this reduces the grind too
All those past lives,
Make it easier to go faster, next time round
Make it pleasurable,
Because you're acting in god mode
At least at lower heroic
I mean, that's fair shake for playing 10 years

So while I'm kinda of in the category where power creep is helping,
It's done other things for the game
Yes, it's made it easier
It's made it so solo is the thing
It has gotten us to our individual best

Now,
The reaper cometh
And the idea is to bring back grouping, and roles
The trifecta, the quartet, the pentagram
And the hexagon
All great combinations allowed by our quest for
Individual perfection

May the power creep serve us well
And take us into the nine Hells
What was hard is now easy
Just don't play cheesy
I'm sure the reaper will ring our bell

Maybe I shoulda called this

The perverse of power creep

You forget Reaper brings Power Creep, so the Trifecta, Quartet, Pentagram, and Hexagon will be replaced once again with the Prime once everything settles. Individual Perfection, because Developers are short sighted!
