Quicksand Caves Weight Doors

[Kyrial]

It's always bugged me that NPCs and pets and such can't help us open the weight doors in Quicksand Caves. Us poor non-Galkas would like to be able to open them solo! Just yesterday, I was doing some trials in Quicksand Caves, and would've been able to finish a LOT quicker if I could've opened those doors. Nursery Nazuna is bigger and fatter than a Mithra, why can't she help me open the door, but another Hume/Mithra/Elvaan can?! For that matter, my NPC is Elvaan and she can't help me either! Just seems silly...

(I just know some Galkas are going to be laughing at this thread...)

heh I was thinking about this only the other day. I'm a taru, I logged a mule acct into the xbox and was burning it through Zilart Missions so could hold some pops in sky. And guess what was the slowest part of the whole deal??

Both of the accounts were Taru's >< - lol

Size DOES matter...

I think that they should add a high level, all jobs ammo item that adds to your weight for the doors. This would make the most sense after all of the level changes.

I remember a topic like this from the past... probably at a different forum, but yeah, I agree all these things could, or even should have an alternative way of getting through them.

Adding The Eldieme Necropolis and Garlaige Citadel to the mix, with their switches.
Granted, Citadel one is not so bad as you can by-pass it via Wings of the Goddess, but at least one quest still requires the First Banishing Gate to be opened (Thief Artifact Armour).

They could add some kind of quest(s) so that having a key item from it, you can manipulate the switches alone, and having your Adventuring Fellow and/or Pet to be able to help with them would be a cool option as well.


Many players feel bad about asking others to help with these things as it can take quite a bit of time and most things there are already solo-content in a sense so asking someone to put their time into something as trivial as pushing a button can feel awkward.


But yeah, in short, I agree!

My fellow Tarus, you will no longer need to hunt down heavy Galkas to open the door in Quicksand Caves! In the next version update we are planning to add a quest which when completed will allow you to open this door solo

My fellow Tarus

I should have known...

My fellow Tarus

Camate, I think you did better on this one than the PW trigger one

This is awesome... i've been waiting for this for a long time. I do a lot of solo game play with farming, NM hunting, quests, and now missions and this will help me out a lot. But wait this only mentions Quicksand Caves... how about the other multi character gates?
