Why make trials so integral to the completion of the MSQ

[DiaDeem]

I'm not trying to be snarky but... it's an MMO. Just go around and ask for help.

A yearish ago, my brother in law got to Endsinger at like 1am EST. Needless to say, queues weren't great, but I anticipated this, and I prepared a little message somewhere along the lines of... "Hey! My friend is about to complete EW MSQ and we need people for Endsinger. If you'd like to help, just queue up and help us fill the queue!" Then I went to the three ARR major cities, Kugane, Eulmore, Crystarium, Thanvair and Sharlayan, and pasted the message in Shout. A single time in each city.

Our queue filled up within the minute. No PF, no premades, just a couple of shouts asking for help.

Is TRUE! Mao got lots trials done this way. Mao asked for helps and lots nice peoples came to help Mao. Is plenty nice peoples in game (is one of the few things Mao will miss now that Mao left FFXIV).

What a lot of people said on this forum is how it goes 99% of the time if you put first bonus in PF it will fill up qucik. Ofcourse time of day does factor in, but usually the PF should fill up quickly, or even asking in cities for help or shouting. Most of the time you will get nice people who won't get angry at you for watching a cutscene and such for a first time. Hell i even put on cutscene for endsinger and Mother crystal to enjoy
