    The increased il is there so players can group up as 8 if they want to tackle them.
    Number of rooms would change much it would just be 7-9 rooms max a run. Going down a floor teleports you in the same room but it isn't cleared. Which gives you another chest without having to open a door and risking rng with opening doors.

    il180 really isn't that high. Alot of people are way above that and even when next normal alex comes out & the patch its gonna go to 250/260/270 item level. il240 gear will be nothing by then when add in this.

    Aquapolis was made for the casual player, not ones who are at the end game. But since a lot of people enjoyed playing with their friends and even random players, the ilvl thing is moot.

    more Floors is a bad idea. however...

    I think a better way to do this is when 4.0 comes out have a New high tier map that opens a new "Aquapolis" in the new zones.

    honostly with how popular it is, im 100% certain this will happen

    maybe even go back and add an Aquapolis to 2.0 maps. I DONT KNOW. just a thought.

    2.0 Piestskin maps >>> ???
    3.0 Dragonskin maps >>> Aquapolis
    4.0 Somethingskin maps >>> ???

    ALSO. if they added more floors they would have to change how The Lore reward pays out

    currently if you reach floor 7 that's 80 lore.

    my FC runs maps every tuesday and we cap on lore rather fast. dont even have to sully our hands with Expert Roulette.

    I was thinking it would be pretty cool if they added an Aquapolis type element on the end of Airship Voyages... So your FCs Airship returns with its meh loot as it currently does, but it can also return with a charted path to a special Aquapolis-style island that you can then take on with your FC... Would make what has become a fairly lackluster addition to the game a bit more interesting... Bonus points if we actually get to fly the damn thing too... I'd like it if it was partly RNG for finding the second+ islands, but you're actually riding the Airship during that roll and can influence it slightly with the Airships stats and how you pilot it... Like, give the Airship HP and have it as sort of a race to find and reach subsequent islands, the base stats will help but the pilot can temporarily boost the stats, perhaps the weather gets worse so you either boost Speed to get through it quickly, or Favor to take less damage...
