SE should add a search function to search for other pple on the same mission/quest fight, their favored time for doing it, their available jobs or if they are just willing to help just for fun. you can set a search comment for missions or quests atm, but nobody use it. There were countless players needing certain CoP missions done, but they were unable to find others with the right jobs for these missions; you wasn't able to search for pple who need the mission and only option was to /shout in 1 area, while others willing to to/help the mission weren't in this area.
Something needs to be done, there isn't as much as a player base as before and its a bit more of a challenge to find people even with a search function. They should have it scale based on party size that would be the most effective.
I think they should remove caps from every single quest, especially the BC-type ones like Return to the Depths, and I think they should make Nyzul/Assaults minimum number down to 1 so that we can solo these now.
I dunno. Missions and quests are my favorite part too, but the fact is that this is an MMORPG, as in multiplayer. If you want a soloable game, go play an offline game.
Good lord @ this thread... You really have the much trouble? COR AF3 mission wiped the floor with a 80+ WHM+THF are you kidding me!? This isn't a case of being "too hard" it's a case of you not being a really good player.
Maybe adding a selection like in FFXIV were you can select solo, 2 players, 3 players and so on for the mission? I don't know if there is a right answer for the missions at all but making it a choice can be nice for the players who can't get help and the players that have an active LS and want to do missions together also have that choice. The point is I know i'm missing out on a lot of great storyline and content because others aren't on the same missions or they don't want to have to spend 3-4 hours doing missions they have done 10 times before.
I understand the MMORPG comment so thats why I said there isn't a correct answer for this and also with the nature of MMOs you can't please everyone all the time.
