Will we ever get any solo ultimates?

[pennyblack]

ultimate bosses are the endgame bosses for ffxiv, but those are strictly locked behind parties and statics. Having content such as criterion dungeons are kind of the start to true solo content wrt to patch and ilvl, so when do we get savage solo bosses and ultimate fights that we can solo?

ps: im not talking about unsynched or soloing past content, i mean actual solo bosses or ex trials that are doable with synched ilvl, with any class.

A equivalent to the Mage Tower in WoW would be nice. But will never happen. Put some nice Glam behind it and people will mald cause they cant pay to get carried.

We had this in Bozja. But it was locked behind other bosses and only one person could enter. So it was kind of meh.

I would be up for that. I don't raid really these days but something like this would good if it had some nice rewards.

Bozja/Zadnor duels and deep dungeons.

Are they actually capable of creating challenging solo fights? I mean we have the crit/var dungeons but that's not really even ex level, and the savage version of those needs 4 players(good luck getting 3 others by the way).

Bozja's Duels also had cheese mechanics discovered later on that trivialized them. Once the cheese was discovered, that's all anyone did.

Next blue carnival stage, lets go.

Try out solo Orthos, it's much easier than solo potd/solo hoh, and if you raid you might enjoy it. Bozja duels are not bad and are actually more exciting than raiding because the pressure is all on you. Blue mage is kinda boring.

Lost Ark also copied the idea and has Fatespire. Honestly some of the most fun content in that game if you do it on min ilvl. FF14 would benefit from Mage Tower/Fatespire equivalent but devs are too lazy.

In an ideal world though we'll have like 50 floors of encounters, some puzzles, some bosses, with a bit of story and lore thrown in, and the highest floors would be around 50% harder than Bozja duels. That would honestly be dope. But yeah, I doubt this will ever happen.

Would be nice if we got more Deep Dungeons but more styled for pure solo rogue play, and have them essentially be shorter in time too, then they can also make them far more brutal early on, without feeling like tedious time wasters. Nothing worse than timing out on floor 99 twice because you got an abnormal amount of treasure rooms between you and the exit in a row, or dc'ing because using doga demiclone on a goobue's pull in can dc you, if you're outside a certain range, where the rubber banding simply cuts you off the server, when the goobue then tries to pull you in after its petrify's over.

They've got the framework from other content, Eureka, Bozja, Variant, Deep Dungeons, to easily copy pasta something together. But they simply never do.
On another point, whichever mmorpg can implement Honkai Star Rail's Simulated Universe system into their game, would have a very easy path for replayable content. And FFxiv already got the ingredients present, from past exploration/deep dungeons, the devs just keep sleeping on them.
