You can end up in an ARR zone and /shout all you want, not a single level 70'll come and kill that A rank sitting on top of your quest marker just because they've nothing to do in that area. In comparison, the chances of you getting enough level 50+ players to help get rid of the annoyance should suffice.
    Which is why I'm all in favor of a FATE-like system. It might mean I won't be able to solo them anymore, but you're not gating characters from content they were once able to run. So if I have a level 50 chara, they'll need to get a party together but they still have the potential to take down Nandi. Not so much if it's scaled up.

    Heck, in my experience you can often /shout all you want about ARR and even HW rank A spawns, and nobody will show up to help. If you are lucky 2-3 other people may show up.
