This could be pretty tough, because SE have to keep the balance between causal and hardcore players. It's going to become even tougher if you factor in random strangers from DF as well. However, if they can add in as a small bonus on top of what we have now if we successfully pull said party combo off, it might actually work for the best of both world. So static skilled players can benefit and causal players wouldn't get their head bitten off for falling behind.
