Problem with DF

[MortalWare]

I would like to see scalable dungeons so they can be done solo if needed but offering lesser rewards.

If not, then I do think the requirement to do them in order to unlock things like Retainers or more of the storyline should be removed entirely.

SWtoR came up with something of a solution to this problem when they introduced 'Tactical Flashpoints'. Basically dungeons which can be done with any combination of classes, even with all DPS in the party. Healing stations are located at boss fights and the content scales in difficulty depending on the group make up. I doubt such an overhaul could be done to FFXIV but I'm not a developer.

Yes, everyone CAN get the adventurer in need bonus, but because tanks are in high demand, they get the bonus far more that everyone else. But I digress.


Rewards alone isn't going to convince people to play the role of a tank. Tanking has a certain appeal where you either like it or you don't. I prefer to keep tanks as they are now rather than Square trying to meddle with the make up of a tank to get everyone to play as one and devaule the role as a result.

I think the bigger issue here is not being able to get into the dungeons required to complete the story rather than EXP in general. The only thing I can really say to this is.. it's an MMO, they're made to be played with friends so your best bet is trying to make a few tank / healer buddies.

The gil reward for in need tanks and healers should be linked to how many people are queued up for dps. Say if the wait is like 3 hours for dps the game should offer like 50k for a tank until the time is at an acceptable wait.
