Guild Wars weekend

I rather like the fact that each team gets it's own area.  Granted, it's not as much of a community environment, but it does offer those of us who really don't like taking on overpowered monsters only to have someone run in at the last moment and take the kill/items a chance to play in a pseudo-mmo envorionment.  The only thing I don't like about it is that you can't invite people into a mission unless they join with you in a portal area (whereas in D2 you could just give someone the name/pass and they could join you mid-stirke).

That's the thing though now, with WoW, it's whoever hit the mob first that will ultimately end up with the loot (unless they die during the fight). If you hit a mob and start doing damage to it and someone runs in and kills it, you get the loot rights since you hit it first. There are also other methods for dealing with exactly what you describe (person that does most damage or person that does consistent damage against the mob that hit it first).
