* Never over carry
Find yoru characters base weight with gear on then look at his total carrying capacity without buffs. Subtract the two. This is the weight he/she can carry in seige gear, arrows, etc. safely. Never carry more then this weight. Yes it might be fun to carry an entire ram when buffed but when the shaman dies or faints you become virtually rooted. It doesnt do the rest of the raid any good when they are standing at a keep's door waiting for the ram beak, catapult amunition, etc. This means your character is probably only going to be carrying a subset of the total gear needed to erect a seige weapon but you are more assured at having it arrive where you need it.
* Who is the leader?
Establish right up front who is leading then follow that person. If there is a raid leader, group leaders should follow their orders. If you are not a group leader, follow your group leader's orders.
* Follow your group leader
Once you leave your border keep (portal keep) always autofollow your group leader unless you are fighting. As soon as fighting stops, resume autofollow. Sometimes groups need to move around quickly and have time to wait for everyone to catch up.
* Establish your tactics before leaving
This is mostly for single group fights but just like in monster bashin, pick your tactics before you start. Are area attacks acceptable? Or are you going to area mez the enemy and kill them off one at a time? Who are people supposed to be assisting?
* Targetting Orders
Assuming your group has decided NOT to assist one person in battle, always kill people by the following order:
1. Pure Casters in cloth
2. Crowd controllers (Bards, Minstrels)
3. Healers (friars, clerics, druids, etc.)
4. Anything left over
This means often you will run right over the first line of attack (which is usually enemy fighter types) to the back and start on the stationary casters first. If you do it backwards, the tanks will be like killing 2-3x the groups size as they are getting healed and you are getting damaged by spells and arrows at the same time.
