Main story dungeons- solo modes

[Onyxys]

Greetings. In different MMORPG main story dungeons have, with party mode, solo mode to complete dungeon and go forth to next story quest. So, two dungeons modes- party and solo for completing main story quests. Has SE any plans to make such mode in FF 14 for story dungeons from @Sastasha@ till @Proetorium@? Thank you

Probably not because this is a MMORPG. If you want to play a solo Final Fantasy game there are a lot of great ones to choose from!

I would actually like an option to go through a dungeon solo as a challenge. Maybe something you could so weekly. All the NPCs credit you with surviving them on your own as if the other players weren't there anyway.

I doubt it's going to happen, but would love to see it. Perhaps you get an allowance every week to challenge a few dungeons in solo hard mode without a level cap.

I really like this idea, except that it would be very difficult to balance it in such a way that it would be accessible to all jobs/classes.

And in order to balance against the obvious problem of it doing harm to the economy, it could be a challenge feature with unique, probably purely aesthetic rewards, similar to WoW's epic transmog rewards for golding the challenge mode dungeons.

Nope. All it does is promoting people to overgear the contents then run solo dungeon for the same rewards as finding people to play with. This ends up killing the community.

No no. Solo mode will give less reward, because less danger

So you want them to spend time trying balance every single dungeon over again just because some people want to be anti social? Sounds like a great idea, why work on new things when they could work on the old and bleed even more because that minority just has to be able to solo dungeons meant for a group.

don't even have to balance it that much, sync it based on the level of the dungeon (for instance, satasha would sync from 25, any duneons over cutters cry wouldn't sync.) and buff all of the enemies up to the original sync level of the dungeon.

As I know there are many different teams in SE working on different parts of the content of this game. Why not to make one more team for designing solo modes?

Usually solo mode is reserved for when you can play the dungeon through because you outgear and outlevel it. Not that the content is reduced so you can do solo play 1-50
