The new an improved caravan.

[Zezil]

can... change it to group of mob pop in far place and run to attack caravarn same time then random pop near chocobo?... make something for DD to do it.. plz not blm only so ppl must make plan and split up to do his job not wait near chocobo and burn his mana with some leecher DD.. who can hit only2 hit and mob dead...

so all ppl must co-op for win if someone don't invite and leave some other mob group may free and chocobo will get hit lol and reward not luck like mob pop on.. chocobo instnat hit .. but come from ppl team up clear mob that will come from wide area.. that ppl must go to defeat it before it reach chocobo... not random on chocobo..

Caravan rules are dumb! It should be open to everyone(whether or not in party). Join in or wait for next one with less people. Problem with this system is, its over-run by mages. If your not in their party, you don't get exp on kills.

[kazaran]

thats thinking on a small scale. it still leaves people out, its a caravan there should be no party its should be server wide as long as your in proximity of it and killing still or helping the chocobo's get back to the caravan.

if you ever played FFXI think of a world party like campaign no one is left out as long as you sign up. dont say it gonna be laggy this aint 2004 anymore other games can do mass scale stuff why cant the biggest RPG company on there second mmo do it?

You just repeated everythign I said LOL.

RIft uses world server wide campaigns. Event going on you appraoch and can just join in, noone got left out, most of the times you needed at least 40 people coming along.

OR the sign in and as peoele sign in you group and go automatically.


Yes I played XI almsot 10 years. It was very limited on world event other then WOTG stuff that lasted so long till Abysea took over.

However with caravan you can't have that vast side. No need for 20 peopel for such an easy task unless they created caravans much longer with mobs great then level 55 with higher stats.

They jsut need to allow more caravans at once. Or do a totally different event that is meant for larger groups. Such as attackign or defending outposts (withotu the need to telport or use a maw to go back in time).

Get rid of caravans altogether.

They aren't fun. Period.

But they give the best rewards!

That they do, and the best rewards should be given for fun, challenging, real content. People praise Yoshi all the time, but often forget he was the one who designed systems like this, boring faceroll grindfests with no matchmaking utilities whatsoever to only cause grief. He's had his shortcomings, and people need to give some constructive criticism instead of praising him all the time.

Grindy content is fine. But I want to have fun doing the grind.

Yes, I realize the sarcasm in your post XD

I think Yoshi hates the current system, but we need SOMETHING to nourish us till 2.0

How to fix this:

Behests/Caravans/etc -- To benefit you must sign up, once signed up at the NPC you are all placed into a group (no limit on size). Then do whatever you gotta do.

K done.

It works in GW 2..

This shows how broken the caravans are, i hope that in the next version if you go there and talk to an npc you instantly are grouped automatically and if the party is full you make an alliance, mobs should be more when an alliance is formed and so the points you should receive, and of course make the mob spawns more random. So after you finish the alliance is disolved.
