Toxic endgame community...

[Sotek]

Story dungeons should be seperate from farming dungeons.

They went with this design for a reason; so that people who need the dungeon clear for their first time always have other people to group with. That is why it is this way, and that is why it will likely stay this way for a very long time...

I made a rant on the Derpy Finder in another thread earlier, but it seriously is the main reason there are so many issues with this games community... I also mentioned how the server boards they're meant to be adding in 2.1 would be a much better alternative to the Derpy Finder, and a far better use of something like MVP... Here is an idea; if someone puts up a posting for a piece of content on the server board and it is their first time, then people who help (providing they've cleared it already) get additional rewards. MVP is the obvious one, but that is just for fluff items... Lets say they take tomestones from CM/Prae and make is solely a story dungeon, instead if you use the server board to help someone with it you get a significant reward in tomestones, as well as MVP. Then they can pretty much always rely on player to help out others, because there is a significant reward for doing so, they don't need to instead make the content frustratingly annoying for everyone...

I really cannot believe they decided to make the Derpy Finder the backbone of this games leveling process... It is terrible in every possible sense... Speed of finding groups was a nice idea on paper I guess, but we all know how that turned out... Instead, people can now go through 1-50 without talking to a single soul on their own server... They now need to waste time adjusting Crystal Tower for the Derpy Finder, as well as making adjustments for the community like MVP and a kick feature... I'd rather shout; you can kick people from shout groups, people are rarely ass-hats when you're on the same server as them, you can organize the run properly (speed run/first time/cutscenes/drops/etc.), you can make groups that aren't stuck to some meaningless default set up (who honestly needs 2 tanks at Titan?), you can meet people on your server and actually have a reasonable chance at forming groups in the future. With the server board you should get all that without the need to shout... The only difference to the Derpy Finder is you'd have to put braincells to work typing a message instead of ticking a box... If the developers some how fuck up this feature I'll be amazed, it could easily out right replace the Derpy Finder if done right...
