Take what you can get for now, the current server structure as it stands now cannot support that kind of Non-Instanced content. In 2.0, it would seem the server structure will be a lot better and we will have those Non-Instanced Areas in which we can have a lot of people fighting against a certain threat.

Yeppers, in which ALOT of people will be tracking him down, in which alot of people will surely be in that area trying to take him down =). So with that example alone, It def. feels like the Non-instanced part of the Future FFXIV is going to be awesome! .

If it's just 8 people....meh....

Considering the limitations they have on displaying characters and npc's with the current engine the discussion is some what understandable.

I am half and half about the decision my self. On one hand i look forward to a smooth hamlet fight. the other half is sort of going to be missing the feeling of the recent garlian invasions.

As it stands, with only 8 slots to mix the four disciplines into, I still think we're going to end up with a very heavy DoW/DoM build.

6 DoW/DoM and 2 DoL/DoH sounds like it would be the average, in which case the craft and gather guys are getting the shaft.

You guys are forgetting something... It will not matter much what classes make up your party.
Your party will be fighting alongside at least 10 militia NPCs.

Also, looks like you get less result points for equipping job stones and more points for everyone being the same DoW/DoM/DoH/DoL.
