craglorn and any future locations

Adrastes · June 2014

why not make craglorn and your future planned places to have two instances. solo and group. player could decide which one he would like to participate. solo would have reduced XP gain and less chance for great loot. this way players could decide how they want to play like you have promised, and not always be depending on finding groups which is bad at most of the time.

dungeons can keep group only status but VR dungeons need difficulty reduced or rewards hugely higher cos people wont play em. sadly now even after several days trying to find group, only once i got 4 man group which died over and over at 2nd trash mob and we gave up. and that was on easiest VR dungeon VR 1-5 with players in group VR 3, 7, 5 and 2. healer, tank, and two dps.

they cant balance it to work for a group of 4 and for solo. this is an mmo afterall and you have to play with people sometimes. making solo area would also create lots you perhaps you do not foresee.
the vr dungeons were very hard when you first try them. did you guys level up and try agian. they do not need to be reduced the bosses are vr5. try being the right level. if you work as a group instead of 4 soloing at the same time and place they really are not so bad. if they were much easier it would ruin the experience for all the people who play as an actual group.
finding groups in the finder can be hard, I suggest making friends and joining guilds. this is my first mmo, im v11 have played most of the content except the trials and have not had a problem finding groups between zone friends and guilds. all the "friends" on my list are people who I grouped with so start adding people. if you play well they will want to play with u next time instead of an unknown, thats why groupfinder is so dead, people are networking and use that as last resort.

I kind of agree... it would be nice to have the option to do the same zone either solo or in a group. I'm not sure how trials would work, though, and I'm concerned this would put more stress on the server.

Personally, I'd love a "slider" or some other setting for allowing solo/duo/tetrad/dozen-sized play -- lots of options -- but it would even put more stress on the server and might make it harder to find people.

I'm hoping new solo zones will be released, though. I know it's an MMO, but it would be nice to have some solo content too, for the people who feel like soloing.

Grouping is a big issue for me, too. My RL friends don't play anymore and I'm socially awkward, so even though I end up friending/friended by other players I've grouped with before, I still feel like I don't have anyone to group with in VR zones.
