I don't mind PL parties, they are great if your time is limited. However, soloing absolutelly sucks at this moment.

That pretty much forces people to party and let me tell you, would you rather spend 10 hrs to gain 10 levels or 4 hrs? I think that's a pretty easy answer.

If they fix soloing again the way it used to be before 1.18 i bet people will solo more often and this whole PL discussion would fade away.
