For me Normal is sort of the limit to what I've been able to solo reliably. Sometimes I've been able to solo difficult, but it takes so much time and it's so prone to disaster it just isn't worth the hassle. Which is why I don't bother with Ambuscade, since 145 runs on normal for the +1 set is just... lol F that.


PS > And if anyone is wondering why I'm not partying to get stuff faster it's simply because my play time is far too erratic. For instance, for Ambuscade I'd just:

- Pop into the game
- Try an Ambuscade if I have the KI already
- Go afk for half an hour
- Come back and get a new KI
- Go afk for another 15 minutes
- Maybe come back, maybe log out
- Then try ambuscade again sometime
- Etc. etc.

No group would ever be able to keep up with that playstyle, which is why I'm a solo player these days. That way I can warp out at any moment I want, and resume trying at any moment as well. If you are in a party you need to consider other people's time and that's just not possible for the most part for me.
It doesn't matter if solo or party. If the game can't provide what players need in terms of simply basic operational services, how good the game is?

This Ambuscade wait time is more ridiculous than ever, averaging 30-45 min and you people still willing to wait. Congratulations on wasting your life sitting around doing nothing.

Soloist who sign up Ambu then AFK is worse because they may not even know they entered the event and still AFK. I don't blame them, this is one of the byproduct of a crap game architecture.
