Actually, the fact that you don't get Anemos crystals which are required - forget even the weapons, required for the level 17 quest, means that just soloing and ignoring NMs is really not viable in the least. The game mode itself requires you went NM hunting several times just to progress the story. And NMs being FATE bosses, yeah playing single or even duo isn't as viable unless you can really generate a mountain of agro to offset your few numbers as someone testified to doing a couple of pages back.
