Raiding in World of Warcraft (and presumably other MMOs) has produced a collection of commonly-accepted gambits used by both NPC mobs and raiders themselves. Since most raid encounters in the game consist of combinations or variations on these tactics or situations, I'm cataloging them under the collective header of raid tropes, inspired from the tvtropes.org site.
