    I find it funny you think I am implying I don't want social interactions or even want to attempt that content solo. That isn't the case. I'm forced to do it solo because no 'casual' buddies of mine will stick through two bad sessions. After 15hrs invested, and little reward and still two floor sets away from the prize really demotivates quite a few people, sadly. The issue isn't about the social aspect, it's finding others dedicated enough to actually tackle the challenge floors and 'progress' through them, which means you might not clear it the first few times, so buckle up and get ready to spend 30hra of your life learning floor 181-200 of potd since one wipe means restarting from the start (or 51 if you choose to skip 5 of the 20 duties this challenge has)

    Imagine a savage raid, but you 'need' to stick with the same people the whole time to keep your prog points, replace one person is a huge liability in the higher floors if the new recruit isn't in sync with your group or didn't study that cone of the mammoth isn't a cone but a 180 cleave and wipes your party.

    No worries, it's content most don't touch, and the' story' floors are mainly what most of the player base actually does. It's quite difficult to find people who understand the lethality of the higher floors who actually will do them with you, for the points I have said in this thread.

    Not many 'casuals' will have the dedication to learning those higher floors, even some raiders in my FC won't touch DDs because of how easy the first 60% of the floors are. You don't even need a tank (or kite if a DPS running solo) until floor 151 (potd) or floor 61 (HoH/EO), so quite a few players feel the rest of the floors are as easy as the story floors, or just slightly harder. So, when your party wipes on a mob that starts two shotting your DPS and healer, the group falls apart because they were led to believe this content was 'easy' only to get smacked around on the final two floor sets because everybody underestimates 'challenge floors.'
