But then in their "challenge" floors, they force everyone back into the same cookie-cutter, strict role requirements mentality. It's an unfortunate trend of most MMOs these days. I flew by the seat of my pants in non-standard group makeups and used off the wall tactics more in my years of EverQuest that I have ever had the chance to do in successive MMOs. They've conditioned players to the idea of what's "safe" and discouraged trying to stray outside those solid barriers.
    Actually, it doesn't require a standard composition at 80+... I mean you say that challenging floors force you back to standard composition party. But since it's soloable, any composition should work too. If 1 player alone can go through floors, 4 dps can go through floors.

    Currently solo HoH progression is at floor 93.

    uh...look at that site again, for all jobs. Only rdm reliably hits above 80; only pld and maybe war can breach 80, everyone else is 70ish, and some jobs don't even bother. On primal there are all of 5 mch even ranked with the lowest 30. As soon as 4th place you can see level 50 on some jobs. I'm not sure flexibility exists as much, 3 dps simply don't have the cures on demand, nor many healers have the dps. Even DRK seems to suffer in it. And a week in, a lot of jobs barely meet the 25 people to fill out the table.

    Still looks really limited.
