    I'm all for more content that you can do without having a full party. This whole "you MUST have 8 people or else you can't do it all" BS is extremely inconvenient and unflexible; it often results in not being able to do the content at all, or leaving people out if you have too many, or having to party up with random people you don't know or can't coordinate on the same level with.

    Why can't people do primal fights, hamlet defense, etc. with less than 8 people if they so desire, and just have the difficulty scale appropriately?

    I think there should be fights that actually do require a lot of players too, alongside with fights that are designed for small parties.

    I also think that while the rewards from lowman content should be really good if the fight is hard, the focus of such gear could be different from the gear you get from larger battles. For example, if one fight where you have to use 8 people or you'll have gruesome and horrifying wipe gives you some of the best pure dps weapons/gear, they could also add a 2-4 players fight that are nearly as hard, but for this fight could give other rewards such as for example a 50 Evasion earring that lost its potency the more party members you have with you, making it awesome when you have 1-2 people with you, but not all that good in a full party of 8.

    Example:
    Assassin's earring
    50 Evasion, 20 Magic Evasion
    Latent effect: -5 evasion, -2 Magic Evasion per party member.

    In my opinion, such an item evokes the image of a lone assassin or small, efficient covert operations unit, as a contrast to a large force of people using their sheer number as their strength.

    It's a bummer to rely on 8 people to do every single end game content on this game.
    You guys are ridiculous! It's like a damsel in distress chanting for her 'prince charming' to come save her~ (looool)

    Personaly I find it easy to duo or trio with /random or LS members at any situation or event (just not end-game events because it's new and it would defeat the purpose of exclusivity).








    Oh yeah!:

    100% yes.
    I know people that won't get off FFXI because there's no solo challenge in FFXIV. Add duo/trio content, and you get challenging solo material.

    If you actually read anything in this thread, you'd realize how silly your post is.

    Bring on the duo/trio stuff, it'll be fun, awesome and a mix of both. Funsome?

    Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of another, always at the same time as an end and never simply as a means
