Wipe (Team defeat in raids)

Wipe is when an entire team is defeated during a raid, forcing a restart from a checkpoint or the beginning. Raids are complex, high-stakes missions requiring teamwork and strategy. A wipe often occurs when players fail to meet certain objectives or are overwhelmed by enemies. It can be due to lack of coordination, insufficient gear, or unfamiliarity with the raid mechanics. While frustrating, wipes offer learning opportunities. Teams analyze what went wrong to improve future attempts. In gaming communities, avoiding wipes is a mark of skill and experience, adding to the challenge and excitement of raids.
