BASTARDIZED PVE?

SIN-X

First off why does the lfg need to host all alliances? Because the number of players overall are just that low?

Second, once the trails allow this will the leaderboards just be topped by multi-faction leetist ? Better go ahead and implement the one weekly reward per account.

Probably to make it faster to find groups. Faster to get a group with 300 people than 100

People will complain about anything.

Have you not noticed that the LFG tool currently sucks to the point that most people don't bother using it. This will be a huge way to go about making it viable.

I know there is someone to whine about everything, but why would anyone complain about having a larger pool of people to fill groups from.

I don't use the LFG tool at all but if it meant I could get a group at some odd hour when not many people are on by joining with the other factions then I'm all for it.

Honestly, it has never made any sense at all that you could only group with members of your own alliance for group dungeons. The group dungeons are all done as missions for the neutral Undaunted guild, which has members across all alliances. Lore-wise that's the whole reason why you can go and do these group dungeons in the other alliances.

So, under the auspices of this neutral guild, you can gather some other members of the neutral guild to go to another alliance and brave a dungeon there. But you'd better make damn sure that all of the other guild members you're doing it with are from your own alliance! Don't you dare meet up with some of your fellow guild members who happen to actually be locals!

It has always been immersion-breaking that you can't group for dungeons with members of other alliances.

Frankly, the same goes for Coldharbour, where you're explicitly part of a joint expedition between the neutral Mages guild & Fighter's guild (both of which, again, have members from all alliances, and operate in all alliances) rather than even being working directly as part of your home alliance. And yet somehow, all of these players from other alliances who are also members of the guilds are nowhere to be seen - instead there are only members of the guild from your own alliance. Well, aside from NPC guild members - there are prominent NPC guild members from all of the alliances. But there's better be no player guild members from other alliances because of reasons and such!

The same goes for Craglorn too, where you're an adventurer responding to a call that went out across Tamriel to come and provide aid that is desperately needed for the inhabitants of a region that isn't part of any of the alliances. And yet, despite the fact that they were sending messengers across Tamriel in desperation to try to gather heroes who could save them, somehow mysteriously only heroes from your own alliance showed up. I guess all of the brave folks of the Undaunted, Mages guild, and Fighters guild in those other 2 alliances must all be doing their laundry today or something instead of coming to help like so many members of those guilds from your own alliance.

I'm hoping that eventually this means we can do vet scaled to level content in our home zones with other alliances running around. After all; the PvE part of it we are all in it for the same cause and alternate realities if we are in an enemy territory anyway.
