    I've done more salvage in the past year then more people have done in their entire FFXI career. And you can't kill the SSR boss solo, nor can you get there with enough time to kill it without multiboxing if you go for 4 cottons and then the linen from boss.
    If that's really what you think, I don't think you're as experienced with Salvage as you claim you are.

    While it's possible, he's right in that it's extremely annoying. But I think most people mean 2box when they refer to soloing anyway, rendering that particular issue moot.

    Soloing in this game means 2+ boxing characters and not having to share your loot with anyone else ;p

If you wanna increase that amount to a degree that it can't be farmed completely with just one person then you may as well wait for the Salvage remake, because it would alter the event completely.

    I think regular Salvage is fine as it is now (aside from the entry limit). Incorporate the changes into the Salvage remake and solo people can still do old Salvage, while groups can try to tackle new Salvage.
    Bring mules can't really be helped. No matter what you do, players with mules will always farm more efficient than actual players team up with more players. Ppl bring mules to legion, to einherjar, to dyna, to ADL, to meebles, to NNI merc, to everything. And those group with mules always come out with higher profit/farming efficiency than actual players.

    I have to point out most of the dyna DB, it's coin gain is probably lower than 2 actual player duo though. Although ppl just prefer mules cuz it's still higher than 1 char solo. But coin gain in dyna is still based on performance mostly.

    But that's still better than limited to 100 alex per pt in SSR, no matter how big is the pt size or how efficient pt kills.
