I really hope that EXP/Capacity Point/Exemplar Point reduction for parties of 7+ to only apply to outside areas and not instances.
If Delve / Vagary / Omen / Dynamis Divergence / Incursion / etc are also impacted then that's just bad.


I would like to see player+5 trusts to be given reduced EXP/Capacity Points/Exemplar Points as that's a full party being given EXP/etc as if it were a solo player.
I've seen dozens of players solo'ing Apex mobs with trusts instead of teaming up for whatever reason. This is an MMORPG, not a solo console JRPG. Open up and play with other people.

While I have been enjoying the content, sure has been alot of people playing solo with trusts, and alliance botting exemplar points. Very little old style parties, but when they happen. they are great. Keep up the good work you guys. And thanks for trying to look out for people who play the game more traditionally

"Play with other ppl or else...."

i would like it if i didnt have to keep reviving sylvie, and other unity trusts. When you have 7 characters its a ton of work, and its super boring. Thanks for brining back the golden bombs. One last note: can you make the mandragora madness give 10 of each key a month instead of 1. its alot of work for one fortune key or special dial key. Thank you very much for everything, and Happy Holidays!!!

More like, Make a 6man party the same XP per kill as 1+5trusts.

Could also do it by removing the XP penalty for 2~6 members in a party.

I understand your frustration but some people dont have time to make or build parties with work and outside events, and family. Also if you reduced it for solo people any further they would take 300 years to get to 20, because it is super duper slow soloing @ 200 or less points a kill and 250-300 as a corsair.

believe me u dont want it "reduced" any more. right now its 100,000+ pts from 19-20 and level 98-99 will probably be 3M. if you have 7 characters like me with 15 master jobs its 3 lifetimes to level up at this rate.

when I see a dozen or more people each solo'ing apex mobs right on top of eachother, yes I do want that.

Wait, you have 7 characters? Obviously this wouldn't apply to you unless they're on the same POL ID.

I've gone from ML0 to ML15 in ~2.5hrs in a party before. It isn't all that bad if everyone's actually contributes.

sadly they are on the same id, i cant party with them all at once, which is why this is going to take forever. wish i could dual box my own id.

Add a monthly RoE linked to VR mission progress that instead of giving silver slips, give a maats mix that gives 10 job points per month.

Still very much so hoping black mage gets buffed

Akihiko_Matsui can you guys at all track how many ambuscade clears per server and at what difficulty they are most frequently done on and make changes to them as they tend to rotate from past versions of the foes and share this data with the community.
I'd like to party up a bit more for ambus the gap between difficulties much like in some High Tier BC can often jump vary wildly for difficulty. Lastly can you consider the Wyrm God BC key item merit cost to revert back to 10 merits or even just 15
thank you
