An old promise I'd like looked into

[AmyNeudaiz]

Yoshi-P a long time ago mentioned he would look into letting us solo lower level dungeons without a light party or level sync in the future (anyone else remember this?). I would really like to see if he would give us a response to whether or not this is going to happen in the future.

I myself would really like to grind out some lower level dungeons on my own for vanity gear but I can never do this in normal Duty Finder due to queue times and having to compete with other players for loot (plus I feel bad rolling on something someone needs just for vanity). I would have a great time enjoying stomping on some of the lower level content if the devs let us do this and I think it would help some players progress through the story in certain dungeons and trials without the ridiculous wait time on some of them.

It would bring a little life back into the game for me.

I'd rather see your vanity items being tradable, like the drops from Dzemael Darkhold.

I'd agree with idea under one condition: you have to beat it capped before you can run it solo uncapped. I think dungeons help players practice their roles.

I would like to return to low level brayflox for the one piece of battlemage gear (body) that I never received after many runs. It would be great to do that solo so I would not have to rope other people in for many runs.

Just like unlocking daily roulettes, I do agree this is a good condition. Although personally I think the dungeons themselves don't teach people much other than mechanics, but I digress, that's a good idea.

I'm against turning a MMO into a single player game, but for making low dungeon drops sellable on marketboard for vanity.

As someone that played bst main on ffxi... I would love to see a solo version of the dungeons.. I solod thf from 30-75 and all of bst and i amassed a HUGE fortune from doing it. Raid content however does need to be multiplayer.. <I don't consider dungeons a raid>. Plus sometimes I just like to solo stuff.. I KNOW for a FACT in the future if they don't level sync older coils... EVERYONE will be soloing stuff like twintania just because its fun to do. Just because you play an mmo doesn't mean you need to play with people all the time. I hope they do bring in a job that can solo current content... I miss my bst and my thf

I've been teaching low-level players through new dungeons, including ones with no idea how to do their role before. The dungeons actually have a fantastic progression in terms of introduction of concepts that are used throughout the game, whether basic ones (wandering monsters, etc.) or ones used in more unusual mechanics for bosses later (stacking debufs, etc.)

However, it's not until Brayflox/Titan that the game really punishes players who haven't learned their stuff, so many players seem to get through with absolutely no idea they're even doing bad (because their healer's carrying them hard).


That's another discussion for another time though, I guess. There IS mention of some form of 'sub-light-party' content coming in 2.3, and it may be the ability to queue for dungeons with a sub-4-man party.

Oneshotting sastasha's bosses? (Yes please)

I think it would be an interesting distraction, though really only for grabbing up vanity pieces without sitting in long queues or trying to convince friends to run low level dungeons for virtually no reason with you. The one problem I could see is that it might (further) trivialize some of the dungeon trials in the zodiac weapon quest.
