Is Baldesian Arsenal discord a mistake?

[Xellos2099]

I do have discord, i am just point out the problem that discord group monopolize the instance. Last night i join a group that spend 2-03 hours and can;t even go in once since another group was laying claim to the instance and refuse to leave

Imagine if it would've been more like: "First in, first serve" and people simply jumped in, grouped up in the voice after that and went from there. Sure, you might not get to play with your best buddy every time but we'd most likely have a lot more clears on a larger scale (something I kinda expect is going to happen over on the JP servers). They've got a much friendlier community in JP; people are less inclined to getting carried and try to pull their own weight and they're generally more humble. I firmly believe that the reason they clear stuff on a much broader scale than both EU and NA is because of their social culture and not actual skill level in terms of gameplay. Over here, we've got the every-man-for-himself mentality (which actually pmuch didn't exist until modern age MMORPGs) and it's a real shame.

Another solution would be to TALK to people upon joining the duty and make plans. If you want to make an effort to go in, make it known before the portals spawn and maybe you could sort things out quick and smoothly by either merging or splitting groups.

It would solve a lot of issue with the first room is a safe room where you can change class.

If they're a huge raid premade and politely ask people to leave portals for them and you snipe it. You're just being a jerk.

How about when a group has 4-5 groups already and are actively recruiting from inside the instance like it was intended and the big group that comes in see's that you are recruiting and says since you are not a full 56-man group you have to wait for us to finish. No telling how long that is. I've seen groups go in back to back leaving other out in the wind to do their support NM with little to no reward or chance to have a shot to even learn.

The "method" of access Baldesion Arsenal is a horrible mistake.

Just spent a hour in a party that constantly had to dip in and out of Hydatos hoping and praying for a clean instance, but nope, different groups were already in each one.

Future "public dungeons" like this need to be done via DF. End of discussion.

Eh, there have been instances on JP servers of players sniping the portals to BA, and one where an entire instance collectively refused to kill the outside NM to allow further progression inside BA (not Ovni but the other one that spawns where you need Feint L and Dispel L).

On Aether, when I've tried to do it there's been less players sniping portals and more instances just not being interested in going in. I did get in once last night, but only made it to the East/West boss rooms (and the other side failed to kill their add, causing us to wipe but it was still fun).
