Behest every hour

[Jinko]

If they go back to 1 hour they need to allow 2 or more groups to participate at once, ie instanced behest.

Because behest is basically a leve which is actived directly by talking to an NPC, it wouldn't be hard to change this, in fact you could have the battle warden at the camp 24/7 and have each player capable of entering behest once every hour, once the party has 8 members the behest begins.

Im fine with 30 minute-behests.
Though there could be a re-enter timer for an hour, so ppl who didn't made it in the full hour behest, could get in the half o clock-behests.
The re-enter timer could restrict only this camp, so if ya done Broken water @ fullhour-behest ya just go to Halatali Behest @ half-hour behest.

hurr~!

Maximum number of mobs is also lowered (didn't really notice their change in strength), so it really comes down to same, 2x behest per hour with 8 ppl and 20 mobs each behest...or one behest in an hour with 15ppl and 40 mobs, you pretty much get same SP in one hour either way.

I think they should have them keep going every half an hour, but maybe make it so you can only take part in 1 behest per hour.

I know I'm not the only person to think of this. Maybe give players a counter similar to the ones for anima that lets them know when they will be allowed to participate in another behest.

I really like how after behest I can go read the forums or craft for 15 minutes then behest again. I really don't like how if I'm a minute late clicking into the client my spot will probably be taken.

I've had some people telling me to go to another camp.. I did and I was lonely..
Basically then.. either you stay at a populated camp and get into behest on a luck basis.. or you go to another camp and enjoy a lonely behest in which you get less than half the sp you get during a full party behest..

People will stay at one camp because they want to do behest with others.. knowing that other camps will be empty they won't go there.. thus leaving them always empty.. that's how we get camp overcrowding..

Agreed. Now is mostly luck to take a spot in behests. Let alone usually I was fast enough to spam target battlewarden and spam enter, I will usually end up with "Unable to load" after clicking "yes" to participate in the event. This is very, very frustrating. It was much, much easier for me to join 1 hr behests. And for me, 1 hr behests gives me more time and flexability to do stuff around in the game or in real life than say 30 min behests where I only have 15 min before I miss my spot.

players stay in one camp because they are stupid lemmings. I usually play in limsa's camps and I can find people but still do whatever I want whenever I want.

I want them to make behest more like campaign (the one casual thing in xi), but with the addition of public companies I feel like a campaign type system woudl be linked to that.

[Jinko]

Yea campaign was cool and behest would work much better like that I think as well.
