Right now it's pretty bad, boring, and just no fun. Grinding is the name of the game, but there is a fun grind (aka Abyssea) and there is Reives....

Oh? And what good has being critical against SE done you so far? You think people didn't complain hard enough about walk of echoes and campaign, and that's why they suck?

There has never been a shortage of critics for anything. I can't think of a single thing in the game that whining has solved which intelligent discourse could not. I'm not saying you're whining, as long as you're not saying I'm defending SE.

But my point is it's a game, we (mostly) know its rules, and we've both agreed to play it. Let's adventuring together in Vana'diel.

I have seen no reported cap on the number of people who can enter a wildskeeper reive together, and I would imagine they never bothered to program in a software cap on it. However, there is a hardware cap on everything, so I imagine if 5,000 people tried to join the reive, something bad would happen to at least 1 player. But it's probably subject to the same player limitations that Besieged posesses.

I could be completely wrong about this, however. I've been completely obsessed with leveling, meritting, skilling up, and gearing my rune fencer ever since the expansion came out, so I haven't been keeping current on other aspects of it. Good luck to you on finding a more reliable answer though, I'm quite curious myself~

Old merit parties was the most boring thing I have ever done, those sure carried on for a long time. So what in a year people stop doing enough to keep the paths clear SE will adjust it just like they did the other day, or you know you can get a party together to clear the way to do missions. WoEs is still being done by the JPs just because the NAs don't do it doesn't mean it failed.

What pissed people off about WoTG was how long it took to finish the story line so people lost interest and seen campaign as just a a easy way to get some exp with out seeking when you didn't have time to or play using a different play style. When VW was at it's peak it was a easy way to get voiddust to spam more VW or sell to make a nice profit. As for taking zones there was no reason to really try to take the zones. The fight didn't even offer gear worth the effort to do the fight it self with it just being a slightly better side grade to AH gear.

So far this expansion is offering nice gear that is not just side grades but upgrades to many players. I think it is hard enough to keep me playing but not to hard to throw my hands up.

No really - the main problem with WoTG is that there wasn't any gear (the dragging out of the missions was just an aggravation)

If they had made all the allied notes sets as situationally useful as the Iron Ram set a lot more people probably would've done Campaign. Fourth and Cobra were both garbage sets.

Then there was like 2 good pieces per SCNM but the problem was that you have to farm like 12 NMs and then fight a BC with about 10 people every time you wanted a shot at it.

SE has taken notice, it seems. Incoming fix for reives all-around. Should address the problem.

itt "win in 3h" = "give up after 18h"

its hard to find VW city because very few people need it.
it's not a 3hrs fight its a bunch of 2min fights with 2h off runing/waiting
