They fixed it in HoH. You can't even get past 30 without a static.
Which they used to keep the casuals out of the moogle event by making that the ultimog challenge.

You do realize HoH up to floor 50 isn't difficult right? God forbid someone tries to socialize to get content done. I up and solo'd it within an hour and a half (max aetherpool, otherwise get a party) as an upper end estimation. This is too much for you?

It's not any different than doing PoTD to 100 except you need a fixed party to reach it. I'm starting to get convinced I am just falling for a troll, not unusual for this part of the forum. It's. Just. Three. Floor. Sets.

There are already 'checkpoints' every 10 floors & please do not ruin the one and only achievement that is at least worth a fart in the wind in this noskill game.

TIL not getting DCed due to DDoS is a skill.

They are far from it. You either have to clear them in one sitting, which takes hours, or you have to run after every single person because they will not show up again at the second or third day and eventually you have to delete the save and have to start over.

Deep Dungeons are hardcore content. Not because they are so difficult (in a party) but because it's impossible to find people to actually clear them. Orthos is probably the best content we got in EW, but it was dead on arrival anyway. The barrier of entry is too high.

to be fair, upto 50 is super easy, when doing it with pictomancer i killed every enemy in 1-2 hits, there is just a harsh spike on 51+

I really dont like that you can't register above a certain level anymore. (not that you would find a party anyway)

No not trolling.
When it came up in my group recently the conditions were:
We keep running until everyone gets their mount or savage comes out.
Scheduled times.

Now there is nothing wrong with that, but none of it works for me.

I've done PoD three times up to 180 or so but once a couple of people get thier mount it all falls apart, and it takes ages. 1 person drops and your prog is over. Back to floor one. So I'm just not even very interested to start with any more. It's a complete crap shoot, and not a good one, and I don't do gambling.

It extra hard hard for me to schedule at the moment.

I'm certainly not committing to mounts for everyone.

My priority is last floor clear not mounts.

And I'm sure as hell not doing that (my content) to have it suborned to Fckn savage high end again!

No.Screw deep dungeons and their fixed parties.

If you're not soloing for a title then you do not not need to start on floor 1, you start on 51 PoTD.

The example I nitpicked on was your over exaggeration of the heaven on high ultimog, a grand total of 30 floors. Solo or a full party this should take no more than an hour and a half tops. You have UNTIL PATCH 7.2 to do it and you can't manage to scrape together a friend or two to do it with? I'd just drag you there myself out of pity if you were on the same data center. (tri-solo title, I am aware I am an outlier). Fixed party or not you're basically saying you're unable to do PoTD 61-100 because HoH doesn't start getting intimidating until 51+, or 61+ for actual pain (which isn't part of ultimog to begin with). I even have a friend who "does not" want to solo deep dungeons but is fine doing it in a pair. I dragged her down to floor 200 PoTD on her very first run! She enjoyed it.

If you cannot do this much then don't complain you cannot obtain the 50 tomes.

PoTD is normal from 1-100, fixed party 101-200.
HoH is normal 1-30, fixed party 31-100. The problem is you're thinking 31-50 HoH is "challenging" when it is no different than floors 61-100 PoTD. If you could do that, why not this?
