Devs Want Behest Feedback

[Betelgeuzah]

Implement a 30min cooldown for joining another Behest, making it so 16 different people (8 + 8) can attempt a run in a span of an hour. Right now you may have the same 8 people participating every 30 mins, effectively shutting many people out of the system.

This can be prevented too just by making behest harder: if it takes more than 30 minutes to finish a behest, the ame people can't do it two times in a row.

I agree but the system we have now still offers alot.

My suggestion is go to another behest area right now people refuse to go anywhere but horizon >> nophica wells >> broken water.

Drives me nuts 8 people just stand there like i cant get in, theres like 3 level 20 behests (idealy 15-20 for best sp) horizon, bloodshore, tranquil.

then there is 6 level 30 camps (25-30), Cassie, Cedar, Nophica, Nanawa, Muntuy cellars, Humblehearth,

not at 35+ yet so havent explored the 40 behests.

Today I had my first 8ppl behest, it was sooo disappointing -.-' I read here people saying it's much better then before... to me it seemed the usual spam fest... I'm not one of those that spam normal attacks, I always try to use my whole arsenal of skills, but during behest it's impossible, the mobs are just too easy! I can't even select my skill and they're already dead. Make those f***ing mobs harder, increase their rank, make we suffer when trying to kill them. >.<

Also, about the last boss, it has to be something different, most of the times I don't even notice it popped. I guess it should be the main challenge of behest and it should drop something rewarding, it should be something like the latest NM they implemented. This way, just doing behest, we would be ranking up, dropping unique items and having fun... behest could be such an amazing content, it's a pity they worked so little on them.

I agree, but mainly the reason it is not hard at the minute is because people who are too high for the behest participate. if ur above 25 you should not be at horizon, likewise if ur above 35 you should not be at nophica.

Additionally Ive found that certain lvl 30 behests are harder than others mun tuy is quite hard for 30 levels with some of the mobs being as high as 45-48 in rank.

The reasons for this occurring is due to several factors that, when you think about it, have nothing to do with the behest system specifically. We are going to need to fix certain other things first to alleviate this problem.


No one bothers to go to Gridania and Limsa anymore, so it's natural that people would stick to the leves in the Uldah region more often.

No one bothers to go to those towns and only stay in Uldah because:

The story line naturally converges there.

Important guilds are there.

Most of the good leves are there.

Most people put their retainers in the Uldah marketwards

etc

All this creates a feedback cycle that keeps other people away from grid and limsa.

I do not agree.. we'd rather get back behest with 16 people every hour instead..
