How does it work? The article never explains it, other than it binds directly to discord and makes planning raids easier. Never really describes Raidplanner itself.

Honestly, the official esoraidplanner.com website doesn't really either. It talks about the technical aspects of installing the bot and the commands one can use, but I still don't understand the essence of how it works and how it improves things. I guess we'll see if one of my guilds that does raids start using it, and I'll learn through osmosis.

I think it might have been good to reach out to one of the well-known ESO guilds that does use this and have them contribute to the article (or write a separate one) from the user experience and where they find it most useful.

I do wish ESO had a rudimentary trials group finder. Maybe pay Woeler and some of the community members to consult on how it should be structured. Some of us just want to run PUG trials without having to hang around Craglorn and constantly monitor zone chat for forming groups.

Still, thanks for the article. I always appreciate ESO's embracing of the community, and Woeler is a titan in terms of independently enhancing the ESO experience with his websites, bots, and other projects.
