Really cool idea. We need a Cartographer.

Actual maps would be a great complement to UI navigation on the site as well as strategy tips. A map of the Templar's Well, for example, showing enemy spawning and suggested team placement for each phase.

I'd seen crude ones on Reddit. They would probably be the most valuable thing you could contribute to the community. There are so many Raid videos. Maps, man.

Thanks for the feedback Pete :)

I've got some cool ideas involving maps (animated versions showing player rotations, for example). I just need to figure out if I can pull decent maps from somewhere, or if I need to make my own from scratch.

I'm on the same page regarding video guides. They're great, but there are tons out there already. I do want to eventually do video guides for this site as well, but only if I can make something unique. I have some ideas for a multi-view video guide, cutting between several perspectives as well as including animated maps, with commentary. But that will need to come later on down the road.

I think you'll have to make your own map from scratch, at which point a bunch of websites will steal it and use it for their own purposes. :D

Multi-view would be perfect, showing 6 videos simultaneously, each one labeled "Alpha" "Bravo" etc. So a Raid leader could say, "hey, you're Alpha, watch this video, and do what he does."

Cutting between different perspectives could be confusing.
