    I proposed in a seperate post that either the conflux that exits to Xarcarbard (S) be clicked on to provide the following three options instead of returning to Xarcabard (S), or Kupofried himself be an NPC in the WOE zone that provides the first two options I will list:

    1. Exchange coins at 3:1 rate like the beastman seals, etc.
    2. Provide a list of all confluxs with there current activity rate %, same as when you click on the fluxs individually but this is for all of them so you dont have to run all over WOE just to find a flux that has people in it.
    3. Return to Xarcabard (S)

    In addition to these, I would have Kupofried provide a update in the WOE zone everytime people start a flux battle, similiar to campaign battle annoucements, but only in WOE. Example, and keep in mind this would be an announcemnt like the campaign battle announcements: "This is King Kupofried, calling all able adventures, the fate of Vanadiel is in your hands once again, a battle is currently taking place in conflux 7, 45 minutes remaining." This would be used once people start a flux battle and again for the same flux when it's time remaining is 60%, not if there's nobody in the flux but only once the first person enters the battlefield and again at 6)% time remaining. This way players can either check the conflux to Xarcabard for a list of current fights active, or hear the announcent and rush to that flux. As it stands now, you have to click on every flux to find someone fighting to join, or catch them standing outside the flux before they go in if your solo or in a small group that can't do the fights alone.

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.
