Harrowstorms need to Scale to the Number of Players

Dolmens are soloable, if they would be as difficult as harrowstorms many would never be done. The dolmens in Alikr are more popular because they are near wayshrine and can be farmed. Maybe if harrowstorms were nearer to wayshrines they would be more popular. Maybe there have to be wayshrines near the harrowstorms.

Why is it bad that something is unpopular? I hate the Aik'r dolmens cause when I have to do them for the daily, I have to fight in both mount speed and tagging speed. So guess what...I skip that daily. And I don't feel any regret or remorse for skipping it.

You don't HAVE to do harrowstorms. The people that do them, either do them for the daily (and so harrowstorms and dragons were more popular during jubilee) or because they LIKE doing them as they are.

And yes, scaling makes them easier. You take away the minimum requirements, the extra chaos from multiple mini bosses and on top of that you make it "eenheindsworst" as we say in Dutch. Cookie cutter, monotone, orgianised scaleable crap of which there is already so much in the game. Don't take away the things that don't conform to the same principles. Variety, inconsistency, chaos are the spice of life.

If they ever add scaling I would also like the world events to scale up so that they don't end in 0.5 seconds during times like jubilee or zenithar.

The Reach harrowstorms are still being done. As are Southern Elsweyr dragons. (At least when I last was doing that at pceu.) Western Skyrim/Blackreach and Northern Elsweyr are rather deserted because of the mssive inconvenience of it all.
