    It would be cool to have group content for less than 4 people

    After doing some older duties unsynced with just two people that still require doing some of the mechanics, it made me wish there was more content targeted towards pairs of people or something similar.

    There's been seasonal events, like that one Valentione's Day thing, but there hasn't been any actual combat duties like that.

    Having just two people to do the fight makes for a different dynamic, and really alters how responsibility is placed on each person.

    I know it could be difficult to balance because there would only be two people while there's three different roles, but I feel like it would make for some interesting side content.

    I'd be into this. Going through HoH as a duo while chatting on discord is like the one way I've been able to stomach it.

    I think it could make for some cool sort of puzzle situations too like "do we need a tank or healer" or "which jobs are best suited to whatever instance"

    2 friends and I were doing coil stuff a while back, that was also cool. 3manning the fight for the Domitrix title was interesting, lots of trial and error.

    100% got my support for the idea. There's lots of couples in the game who'd probably enjoy just doing something on their own without worrying about other people in a group.

    Actually farmed up most of my BLU spells as a duo. Taking in turns as the BLU when it required unsyncing as a level 70/80.

    If they could implement interesting content for duos, I'd be down for that.

    I play with my daughter sometimes and I would love it if we could do a trust dungeon together and fill the 2 remaining slots with the npcs.

    I would love this. I recall WoW did something like this (I cannot remember what it was called). Dungeon groups there are 5 man, and there was for a time special dungeons that were only 3 man. I actually enjoyed these quite a lot and I was disappointed when Blizzard decided to discontinue this sort of content. Perhaps they have since done more with it, I don't know. But point being it was something I liked, and I would love if SE introduced something similar to the game for smaller groups.

    Trusts should be updated to accommodate 2-3 players party (2 players + 2 trusts, or 3 players + 1 trust). It's possible in FFXI.

    I'd prefer if they implemented content-scaling with amount of players attending.

    It's what I dislike about the raid-statics. If - say - a friend joined your fc but you can't invite him to your static, because it's already full, you then have to either exclude him or join another static . It'd be another thing if there wasn't a penalty for joining a raid, when you've completed it already this week... Although being in two statics could be much.
    That's what I liked about the WoW-raids. Got a friend? Great, let him join! Member doesn't have time this week? No problem, since it scales you don't need to find randoms.
    Yes, this example was about the raid with much more players than the thread is about. But I needed an example.

    The point is: I'd much more prefer that the content would scale with the number of players participating, than it being fixed for a specific amount of players.
