What raids do you go for?

What tier of raids do you all go for. I pretty much only go for tier 1 as its easy to go through solo and don't count on having anyone around when trying for higher tiers and as appealing as some of the pokemon in tier 4 are i'm only gunning for lapras as I still need a better iv one since I have never hatched one and 10ks seem to be scarce again.

Same 1-2 level raids because I can solo them. But there is a facebook group that meet at high level raids in my area so I might try that out. Not sure if its worth it with the new capture rates though.

part of a facebook group, i mostly hit level 4's luckily most of the ones i have attended have been tyrantars but once you've driven somewhere you might as well give it a go. sometimes something else good pops straight away nearby and if you've spent $5 in fuel to get there you might as well spend $1 on a second raid pass.

1 and 2. Level 3 I don't feel is worth it to solo with the dodge bug, psyche charge move, app resets, choppy play...

Machamp is the only one I want. Since there is a sizable following in my area I go for lv4 raids too because I feel like the rewards are good.

Machamp, Snorlax, and Tyranitar. In my area, if you show up when a lvl 4 hatches and it ends up being a good one, others will show up to help within 15 minutes.

I'm down to only doing T-Tar and Machamp when I'm playing alone. When there's a group I just go with the flow but I'm already tiring of these due to the frequency of them in Chicago. First world problems for sure. I really wish our rural friends could get a good chunk of the raids big cities are getting.

Tier 2 and 3 only because I can solo them. Well... Some of Tier 3 anyway. I only tried Arcanine and Vaporeon solo.

Tier 2. Tier 3 raids took almost all my resources I had saved, it just isn't worth it for me. The second tiers I can blow through no problem.

Tyranitar or snorlax. And don't be disheartened if you only see 2 other guys with you. Once you go into the lobby you'll see like 10 other spoofers (real life story). Lol

Hmmm....still haven't seen a single spoofer in a raid in either my town or the bigger neighboring town. Been to three Tyranitar raids, which would probably be the main target for spoofers. I think the spoofing issue is pretty much gone in my area after the update.

All level 4's as they are the best source of TM's and rare candy. Open to all level 3's as well, in particular Machamp and Alakazam. For level 2 raids only Exeggutor and Muk hold some interest. I'll do a level 1 raid for Croconaw since Feraligatr is the last dex entry I miss outside of regionals, legendaries, unknown and Porygon 2 (have the candies for that but am waiting for Porygon Z before I blow them). I'll even do a Magikarp raid for the lols.

Overall order of priority:

  1. Tyranitar (need a B/C one)
  2. Machamp (badly need the candies)
  3. Alakazam (need a high IV with Future Sight)
  4. Lapras (need a double ice lapras for when dragonite raids happen)
  5. Snorlax (guess he could become relevant again in the future so some candy would be nice)
  6. Exeggutor
  7. Croconaw
  8. Muk

It all depends on the chances of someone else showing up.

If it's a weekday, I will attempt a tier 3 or 4 raid at one of the three gyms near where I work before 4 PM if I have the time and opportunity to get there for the first fight, as there are usually one or two other people participating, which has proven enough to win.

Otherwise, because of the high chance of glitches or the app crashing, I only touch tier 1 or 2.
