Zergs are empowered by fast-travel. Meaningful travel times will prevent zerg play for being so much of an influence.[1]
Encounters are designed to have meaning in terms of how boss skills and abilities relate to group compositions, tactics and strategies. Zerging is not experiencing content.[2]
- Raid and dungeon bosses have specific mechanics that players need to learn and react to.
- Zergs that are not aware of these mechanics or react to them appropriately will be wiped.
- There is a give-and-take for guilds that want to see a larger number of members as opposed to a more focused group that may be a part of an alliance.[3]

Mechanics that encourage political intrigue will play a role in destabilizing zergs.[4]
