Ambuscade really isnt working for us...

[Dekusuta]

The zone appears to only have capacity for 8 arenas. At least that's my estimated # when I counted party leads and soloers.

There's huge incentives for 'hardcore' players to spam the content. Which is really the core of the problem. Takes too long to enter so 'groups' have a small window and our group can do 1 orc 1 dragon on a good night. We would sometimes like to do more but the wait is too long. This punishes casual players more than the hardcore ones who are on 24/7 spamming this content.

The rewards tier points are also far too high for 'casual' players to obtain at least up to the desired +1 items monthly given the congestion. At 500 points a day, it would require 29 days to get the required points to hit all the +1 item tiers. Incredibly unfair to some players. And driving soloers to spam the heck out of this.

I propose allow points to be carried over , say 10,000 max, & limit entry to once per day per RoE, so technically up to 4 times from the 4 RoE.
Add an RoE hallmark reward for 'clearing' the Dragon/Orcs, similar to FFXIV dailies duty finder reward. So up to 2 daily bonuses. This amount should be in the 200-300 hallmark range, allowing for decent accumulation of hallmarks even for soloers who do 1 kill per day.

The FFXI systems are archaic, and yet we're being forced to grind through this content with F8 Tabbing for hours and hours.


My suggestions:

Limit people spamming by: 1) increase reward per kill with a 'daily' bonus to make repeat kills less appealing, and 2) Add more books to avoid crowding and griefing by PC players on people trying to entry by standing right on the books 3) Add an upgrade path for the NQs to +1 them in case someone comes up short on points? If not, they are a waste of space and forces people to ho the 14,400 (?) hallmark tier to get all +1 gears 4) don't reset hallmarks? I'm still not clear of if these reset or not.
