Idea: Gathering multiplayer instances

[AmnesiaHaze]

gathering can be a very lonely activity to do , many people dont even bother because they prefer multiplayer in a mmo understandably , i had a idea how to make gathering for fun

4-8 player gathering instances in duty finder
- concept would be pretty much the same as gathering leves , just with more people
- people could team up in world or duty find (or a combination of both) similar leveled gatherers of they same type
- the duty would take place in a closed area , a mine for mining , a small forest for botany , a lake for fishing
- each duty would have a competition like gather most total items or most HQ etc. , everyone would be a winner (of xp) , but the best player would get a nice gil bonus on top or seals
- rare unique gather equipment treasure drops could be implemented as well
- maybe a boss rock , boss tree , boss fish at end of instance where all would have to log at the same time quicky within a certain time or , cast line as simultaneos as possible to pull the big boss fish out together , those rare items could be tied to this aspect
- the sense of competition would be motivating for people to spend time levelling and gearing up gather classes

let me know what you think (p.s. i had this idea while grinding gather lonely while others have fun in dungeons together )
