"Duty assist" is "MSQ dungeons only," right?

[Omedon]

I'm pretty sure I caught it this way, that duty assist (the new "scenario mode") was only going to cover dungeons tied to the MSQ, but then my first alt tripped over the fact that dusk vigil is needed for flight, and is part of an admittedly "blue" side quest.

I wonder where this will fall on the "duty assist or no" line. I imagine it won't be supported, and I mean, that's not the end of the world, but as someone who blatantly hopes to use duty assist repetition to level alt jobs... I wouldn't complain about a 51 dungeon to break what looks like a monotonous repetition of the stone vigil from 41-53! I mean, I know, "flight is optional," but is it... really?

Honestly they just need to give actual XP values to "capstone" dungeons and this is a really good alternate leveling path for alt jobs!

And before anyone rudely says any version of "blah blah it's an MMORPG, you should need me/us to run dungeons so I/we can filter you" etcetera, kindly see exhibit A: that duty assist is coming for a reason.

Either way dusk vigil being a heavensward dungeon it wouldnt be for quite some time because duty assist in 6.1 is only about 2.0 MSQ dungeons, not even 2.x MSQ dungeons.

It's not MSQ so they probably won't, but wouldn't cry if they added duty assist to that one. I completely forgot it was tied to flying until I went back through the HW aether points to clear make sure I got them all and saw that one.

This is a good point. If it's not supported, the options would be to just not unlock flying in that area or to do it with the Unrestricted setting upon reaching level 90.

It's so weird that Dusk Vigil isn't technically required for the story.
I think it's the only post-ARR dungeon that's not at a level-cap like that?

Honestly, you wouldnt need to wait until nearly 90 to do that. With the right skills you can solo the dungeon on-level as BLU. Beyond that, id be shocked if there werent more then a few classes that could easily accomplish a Dusk Solo at 60. So even if you dont do it on level, by the time you clear 3.0 and the quests eventually send you back to Falcons Nest you could very well be strong enough to manage on your own. Or of course, find a single friend to unsync it for/with you to get the bonus.

I'd like to one day see all of them assisted.

But for now, by the time solo players get to the point it's unlockable they are pretty much out and into the Chocobo Forest anyway. So it's a bit moot until side quests bring them back later.

Should SE not do it when it comes time for HW, then the solo player coming back will have more levels under their belt, and much better gear.

The more Duty Options the better. The Mechanics whiners who used to vote to kick people in the MSQ because they were watching the story now its forced that you cannot skip the cut scenes. Now we have an option to not play with the mechanics whiners at all. I hope they do this for raids and such nothing ruins a run then a Bard (Typically these people are all bards) who sit there typing bossing everyone around instead of playing the game.
