Tiggy -

Anybody earning soldiery / mythology to earn books was doing hunts (thus earning alexandrite in the process). This isn't much different than what I'm proposing here. Really - there is no difference at all if you think about it.

It takes longer because there used to be countless burn parties in a party finder to simply jump into. There aren't that many people trying to earn a nexus these days. There really isn't.

All i'm saying is - we need some sort of adjustment. I made a proposal. How much light would a player actually get trying to earn their zodiac drops? I think most people are averaging like 70-100 dungeon runs to get all 16? This isn't like some massive advantage given to players who are behind. In fact - I don't think it makes up for the fact that a player can't simply find one of countless trial burn parties to join. I see one maybe once per week.

Bottom line - even with my proposal - I still think nexus will take longer than if a player had access to all of the trial burn parties that once were available.
