I absolutely LOVE the changes, but there is one thing troubling me. Imagine fighting a 30k CP Tyranitar...
That uses crunch...
Which you have succesfully dodged...
But the dodge bug happens...
If they didn't fix it, and it's possible, do you think it's even possible to defeat any Raid Boss?

We do not know for sure how that CP is reflected by actual stats.

Also I read an article by a guy who gave the system a test run at E3 and said they managed to down the boss with just 5 or 6 contributors. So I doubt that attack is scaled up proportionally. If it was then even dodging you would last only 10-15 seconds probably.

Purely speculation on my part, but maybe the massive CP for the bosses is primarily due to a ridiculously high stamina stat. That would make it conceivable for it to take 5 minutes or so for a team of players to defeat it. If all the stats were to scale up proportionally, even quick moves would wipe out normal attackers pretty quickly.

I love when someone says something on here that is so common sense yet i feel stupid for not thinking about it myself. Maybe it is like 2x the attack and defense. but 10-15x the Stamina. This logic makes so much sense.

That was exactly my conclusion after reading the article. Most likely the CP is more representative of high STA and other stats are only moderately increased.

I believe the stats work that way anyway. A level 250 x wouldn't hit much harder than a level 30 x, and would take damage much like a level 30 x, but it would have a lot more HP.

Is it possible to defeat a raid boss solo or you have to team up with other players? Assuming the solo player has monsters of the max levels

I am gonna say you will need at least 5 people. I am curious to see if they flip the difficulty based off of how many people join the fight. cause the earlier comment said someone took down the raid boss with 5-6 people, if you have 20.... Too easy. Might become harder every 5 people or something.

Keep in mind they are running a beta for a while. I imagine they are doing this for the purpose of tweaking such things. Your idea sounds good.

You are right however, they said you can leave a Raid then rejoin the battle and you won't need to use another 'Raid Pass'
