Are we getting a server merge soon?

Trusts aren't intended just for soloers and soloers aren't the only ones who use trusts. I already explained to you in another thread that a daily limit is a non-starter when players have a single month to earn enough hallmarks to buy the limited access gear. Your best response to that was "I don't think the gear is that good anyway," which is laughable. I don't know to what degree soloers clog the zone up but they do, taking up a valuable slot to earn fewer rewards per person while occupying the zone longer to do it. Even something as minor as having to team up with one other person, or better yet 2 other people would go a long way.

Daily limits to entry will stop the people who are incredibly hardcore and will do this for 10 hours a day, if you goto the npc you will see the same people there all day long. You will also see a lot of people in parties who are actually just one person with alts.

Most will be happy with doing it 1-3 times a day, as it is the few are spoiling it for everyone. If you have a limited resource and you let the hogs free reign they will eat everything.

Limit the quest to 4-5 times a day, they can't make unlimited instances so there are only so many ways they can fix this. This is an old game and they have hard limits on what they can actually do to fix this problem. This is not a modern mmo with a proper instancing system.

@Olor.

Deal. I'll look for you when I get off work. We'll figure out a tactic that works best for us and whomever we gather. I'm ok with spamming lower difficulties if that's what it takes.

Sounds good. I am going to a show later (8 PST) but should be around off and on before then. I generally find that outside of the WHMs (which are very good at removing status debuffs, better than most players... bad at MP management tho) - trusts are, at best worth a 115 player. So I am willing to bet even mediocre players will have a better time of it than trusts.

I've found that at least, support wise, the right combination can wind up being a better overall result. For example, Kupipi, Selh'Teus, and Apururu make a highly sustainable support combination that can endure pretty much any long fight, so long as the Spike damage doesn't outright kill your tank.

And I can go on about different tanks that synergize with the healing Trio in different ways too. But usually, when I'm worried about sustain, those three are a go-to, as the demands lessen, I can drop one off. Selh if sustain isn't a huge issue, and Kupipi if I'm not worried about status effects being removed quickly.

[Dekusuta]

What makes Kupipi good in that combo?

I don't have Apururu UC so I go with Yoran as my go to healer + Sel'theus for sustainability ; I'm still trying to find a 3rd. I usually fill that slot with a support like Koru or Arcelia II.

[Hyrist]

What makes Kupipi good in that combo?

Kupipi prioritizes debuff removal. In situations where Paralyze is highly frequent, as well as the Tank being cursed and petrified, having those debuffs removed asap can make sure critical skills and healing can go of when needed. She'll cast Stona and have its animation complete before the Dragon's skill that applies it at times.

That said, she's the first to be removed if I have someone who can manually remove debuffs.

I think Square made this event how they did on purpose to shut people up about constantly complaining they want merges.

Word to the wise: GEO isn't flavor of the month. It's flavor of the rest of the game's life.
