Rulings

(9/20/2014)
Count the number of attacking creatures when the last ability resolves, including Wingmate Roc itself if it's still on the battlefield, to determine how much life you gain.
(11/8/2024)
Raid abilities care only that you attacked with a creature. It doesn't matter how many creatures you attacked with or which player, planeswalker, or battle those creatures attacked.
(11/8/2024)
Raid abilities evaluate the entire turn to see if you attacked with a creature. That creature doesn't have to still be on the battlefield. Similarly, the player, planeswalker, or battle it attacked doesn't have to still be in the game or on the battlefield.
