Anti-Exploit Measures for Caravan (Can I have it?)

[Molly_Millions]

You don't need to form a party beforehand. the party forms as people sign up for the quest. Again, that is by design. I don't know why you can't understand that. It forces people to take turns instead of hogging the escort mission.

If you want content you can do with a pre-determined group there is plenty of that in the game, but the escort missions are not it. If they were, they would either be instanced, or multiple parties could take part simultaneously.

There could always be a "Join as a Party" or "Join Solo" option.
-The Party (if full) auto spawns the event and gets their run.
-The Party (if missing some) is filled in by Solo's If requested by Party Leader.
-The Solos are then Banded together and must make due with a pug.

Just an idea. They are already considering a LFG system.

Patch 1.22c just made this a million times worse... 25,000 seals just for the new company promotion.

Everyone's going to be rushing to do escorts now, I don't even want to think about the impending drama.

we have a system for looking for groups, nobody uses it.

I agree with molly it should be pick up and play like behest

Agree they should allow this to be instanced content IMO, I know people will say bleh more instanced, but it makes sense that a LS/friends wants to do it on their own without worrying about other people ruining it for them.

They should at least have something in place to measure a players activity and if its under a certain threshold they get reduced seals or something.

They should just make it an open world instance like leves are and let multiple ppl do it at the same time.

It's not instanced because it's a sort of 'solo' content, you show up solo and get a group of other people together who have done the same thing, ie shown up solo or with one or two other people. Caravan escorts are meant to be solo friendly, and casual friendly content.

I'm hopeing in 2.0 everything gets the player limit taken off of it and these things play out like XI - Campaign

The counter point to this is that if they did, people could not show up solo and take part in it.
