Please consider reducing the grind for casual content

With respect, a new player who only had BRD as their 99 wouldn't really get by well in cirdas. Additionally, it doesn't make sense to have to pick-and-choose between capacity points, experience points, and sparks. Integrated systems reduce travel and accomplish multiple goals, which is overall better for the health of the game as newer players already have a mountain of content to complete. Furthermore, do SKCNMs guarantee specific rem's pages and provide 5 really on easy? I'm not being sarcastic, as I really don't know the answer. As an aside, Incursion really isn't what I'd consider casual content as it involves shouting or being part of an LS that does it. This is merely my opinion!

i'd consider 45 minutes more casual than several hours of solo farming. you don't have to choose between capacity points, exp, and sparks. you can do a mix, and depending on how you go about it you can have one more than the other. and who cares if a new player has a mountain of content to complete. this game isn't supposed to be accomplished in a couple days. it takes years. if you are a casual looking for solo play.... guess what, not only is this an MMO, but also if you are solo, wtf do you even care about the high end stuff if you are just going to be solo anyway?

You were doing fine until this part.

You just need to look at the majority of games out there to see forced grouping is not in fact a requirement for an MMO to be an MMO. Also, player progression in a game like this is not exclusive of group play either.

Now, if you were talking about a MOBA or a FPS then mandatory grouping is actually applicable because you can't play on your own, but MMOs? Come on now.

and so what... you can still get your progression solo. it is just slower. why should you ruin the game for the rest of us just because you want to be solo?


and yes, there is no forced grouping.... and we can just sit around twiddling our thumbs, grinding, but not really doing anything.
