Colliseum/Solo Instances

[SerLuke]

There's also a level 50 side quest that uses the Coliseum but yeah its always bothered me there's not much we can actually do there I thought they would have added more content for it.

Anyways I agree I would love to see more challenging solo content.

The level 60-70 PLD Job quests also feature solo instanced battles in the Ul'dah Colosseum as part of the quests (as the OP noted), as did the old version 1.0 GLA class quests (fittingly, as the Colosseum is part of the GLA's Guild). The reason though why we don't have more content using it (such as PvP) is SE are mindful about how players would tend to idle around there between matches and thus, given how players idling broke Ul'dah in 1.0, they clearly want to avoid a repeat of that happening again.

Personally though, the OP's idea of a solo-orientated battle arena is still something I would love to see, and Gold Saucer would be perfect for it instead of Ul'dah, given the original Gold Saucer in FFVII had something similar there. I disagree about using it for group content though, as there is already plenty of team-based PvP and PvE in the game anyway.

That makes sense, I wasn't around for 1.0.
