24man group composition

[Terius]

1 PLD in each grp
1 WHM in each grp
1 SCH in each grp
1 MNK in each grp
4 BRDs in each grp.

"LF BARD!!!"

Has it been verified if a group of 24 (FC peeps) will be able to run it all together? It seems like that would be nonsense to not be able to run it as a full FC... even more so because it would be a learning ground for new members you are gearing up

Every other Dungeon Finder instance can be done with a group comprised of people from the same server, so I would be stunned if the Crystal Tower forced people to grab randoms in order to enter it.

I'm under the impression that the 24 mans will be a lot like LFR in WoW, which in case you are not familiar with it, involves people randomly queuing up, mashing buttons for an hour, and then receiving loot; in short don't over think it.

Like CM basically? XD


A part from jokes, I hope there will be some nice mechanics that have you to split up during dungeons (not necessarily 3 full parties, but also a group with physical attackers, one group with magics, or something like that) in order to unlock gates and advance.

Something like 1.0 CC when you had to syncro-kill the right mob for the party to move on.

Though as another poster said above - Yoshi has stated they've deliberately tuned the fights waaaaay down so that it's doable via dungeon finder. So it's not going to be all that complex.

How i understand it they only tuned it down from "1 person do an error = party wipe" to "1 person do an error = no party wipe"
