    Behest Issues After April Update

    I have some members of my linkshell encountering behests that they can not participate in because the party fills up too fast. I would like to recommend the ability to form alliance's for behests or if anyone has any other idea to remedy the situation I would appreciate your thoughts.

    I would like to see behest being able to accommodate more than one group, so that when one group fills up, another one is able to start too, up to a maximum of perhaps 3 groups. These groups will then have their behest targets in different areas of the map so it wont be so crowded. This would probably mean adding an extra two behest NPCs per location.

    I don't see them raising the behest cap now that behests is once every 30 minutes. Yeah LS's used to do prepatch behesting will have to adjust, but in my experience behest are better now with only 8 people. Before when doing behests i noticed on several occasions people that were just auto-following other people without contributing to the fight, but still gaining SP. More control and less zerg fest now in my experience.
    If they were to allow several groups to form alliances for behest it kind of defeats the purpose of them at all, since they are quick 20 min "go there kill these NOW" type missions. Not difficult, strategic, organized party content.

    I guess when dungeons comes behest will only be for random grouping anyway.

    I hate to say it, but your best solution is as follows and its something that was bound to happen anyway

    Go to another camp thats not as populated!

    Right now most of my linkshell members are in the 20 - 30 range and are trying to use the Horizon Behests. They seem to be very populated.

    well i do behest on my own, im not trying to get in with other people
    also i NEVER miss a behest no matter how many people are trying(im just good at getting in that quickly)

    however if it were an issue id want to move too, especialy when you got a group you wanna do it with together it makes it even moreso an issue of moving to another camp

    gracious, your problem(looking at the post below evas) is that you are at Horizon, the most populated behest camp in the game regardless of range.
    Id suggest bloodshore, but even that can fill up, so your best bet may actualy be tranquil if you dont want to have any issues at all

    and when you finish those, you have many choices in 30 camps, since there are 6 of them

    The problem is, if you are running a lower end PC ( such as myself ), the Battlewarden takes a while to load in in populated camps, therefore the people with the best rigs will always get in.

    another reason to spread out
    there are alot of camps that people dont heavily live at
    alot of stubborness will prevent this for a bit, but people will eventualy get a clue and do it

    There are camps people go to, and then camps nobody goes to. There is really no middle ground with server populations and zero incentive to move around. I don't want to spend all 20 minutes soloing my behests for crap SP.
