I'd love to see a Brawlers Guild in FF14

[Klaleara]

Brawlers Guild is...alas...from WoW. As someone who quit several years, and made the full jump to FF14 (Been on and off since ARR), I fully believe a form of Brawlers Guild would make a fantastic edition to FF14.

To summarize, Brawlers Guild is a single player arena. There are stands for people to watch your fight, and players queue up for fights. Each fight is essentially a solo boss fight, with the more you beat, the harder they get. If you beat them all, you get VIP access in a special area.

The whole thing is very simple, and maybe a bit niche, but it is content that is extremely fun to those people who find it enjoyable. A difficult challenge, along with watching others take it on. And a lot of times, players helping players figure out the fights, or how to improve their rotation/gear when needed.

It's a great community get together, past time, and enjoyable system. I've made friends in the Brawlers Guild that I still talk to this day. And I'd love to see something like Uldah's coliseum be turned into something similar.

We got something like this in Bozja but you couldn't queue up for them whenever and it's tied to very specific content. Something similar but elsewhere in the game that can be accessed with ease like WoW's Brawler's Guild could be fun.

Yeeh, while bozja does have something like it, it is too infrequent, grindy and you have to compete with other players to get access.

Exactly that. I was very sad when I found out how rare the Bozja event was, with a bumrush of players trying to get to it first. I still haven't done it haha.

Blue Mage has something close to it in the form of specialist arena based solo content, though sadly with no player audience to speak of.

Brawlers guild and Mage tower like content would be pretty cool. Torghast is just PoTD/HoH with more effort put into it so I hope SE revisits the idea at some point as well.

Made a big long thread explaining this, but clicked the wrong button and lost it all. TLDR, FF14 doesn't have anything in the game (That I'm aware of) that changes your abilities like WoW does with items/set bonuses. And I prefer this way to be honest. I would very much welcome the exception for something like POTD to have it so you unlock ability changing things though, that would be far more fun than the current.

YES, that and Challenge Runs would be great for just fun with friends. They could add so many cool rewards to, and just have spawn every other month or so.

Yeah it would have to be changed quite a bit to fit over here. As much as I like talent rows and set bonuses being able to change up your kit it would be kind of jarring to just stick it all on FF after so long of having none of it. One of the reasons I really like Torghast was because you could duo it and the stuff you got would change up how moves worked and such. Used fire blast as a frost mage in torghast more than I ever have outside it for that reason. I just hope they make a deep dungeon that has some more to it tbh. Kinda sad ShB just didnt have one.

I'd love something similar to keystones as well. As long as they continue being FF14, and the rewards for keystones being completely separate from the rest of the game. Certainly don't need them to be a job again, sucked all the fun out of keystones.
