    DEV 1066, WOE, add conflux NPC

    I havent done WOE in months. Recently, however, I've hit a wall in my other content, and decided it was time to attempt to get the new DA haste gloves for my thf and blu. I doubt these items will appear on the AH, I feel anyone who gets the drop will keep them. So, here I am in WOE again, 22 people in ther zone. been here a half and hour with my flag up "looking for party" and the only invite my smn is getting is from people in abyssea. I noticed a few things, the gaming community still refuses to team-up with people unlsess they absolutely have to. I remember how hard it was to get a party pre-abyssea, and then I realise people don't change, but the game can. So, I have a proposal to implement, SE, if you would.

    Either add Kupofried npc to WOE or give the returning conflux to xarcabard(s) the option that when clicked on it either returns you to xarcabard(s) or lets you assess the situation of all fluxs that are available to you. This to me, would make alot more sense then having to click on every single conflux, to see where these 22 people in the zone are at. Granted, right now I've found ten of them just afk or laying around fluxs, but were are the other 12, they must be in a conflux fighting right now and I wanna join them but I can't find them because I have to click on every conflux and by the time I do find the right conflux the battle is too far advanced that I can't enter or I could but my rewards would be gimped.

    Perhaps there could be an announcment in WOE, like the campaign battle annoucements, were text flows arcoss the screen indicating particapants have entered conflux XXX, and another anouncement when that same conflux has 5 minutes time left that people can still enter.

    This suggestion would make WOE a heck of a lot more user friendly, because let's face it, the communities not going to change, so why punish peole who do want to play the game or work together. I asked for low manable fluxs, and solable fluxs, but we couldnt get that, since the higher tiers you can't solo and coins/gear/spells only drop from completed runs, I have to find others in here that are fighting in order to get any drops, even the logs we crave.

    P.S.: the announcement can be made by Kupofried himself, it could say
    "this is Kupofried, particaipants have enter conflux XXX to do battle with the enemy, I beg you lend your support to save vanadiel from these invadors!" Note, this announcement is only made when battle starts and players have entered a conflux, not if the conflux is ready and nobody is in there.

It encourages you to explore the whole breadth of content rather than asking you to bumrush and bypass all the old content just so you can grind the newer content. This is a model used by other MMOs such as WoW, and while I don't have anything against people that enjoy this model, if I wanted to play an MMO with that model there are many, many games vast superior to XI in terms of mechanics and especially customer service that offer such a model.
