I was thinking, how about something like this: In a party there is no extra exp rewarded and you only get exp aslong as you did some damage to mob, no leeching. Parties would then be encouraged to 'party' and actually work together. The group should kill faster than soloing and therefore you still get more exp over time + the extra loot. Add a level req to acts also, this isn't a fix but it would surely make life harder than just making a new account and standing in the corner of the map. What part of what I said doesn't make sense. Anyone I play with can kill these enemies in less than a couple seconds. There is absolutely no reason for us to stick together when farming. None. All I have to do is pop a diamond and they're done. It takes a lot of coordination to be able to move across the area, while split up, tp, stash and vendor, and restart instance. The moment anyone lags behind, they slow the entire process down. A lvl requirement for acts would also do nothing, and would defeat the entire purpose of races.	Posted by SL4Y3R#7487 on Oct 20, 2012, 10:52:09 AM Banned Quote this Post
I have always played solo. Why make players group to get the bonuses? Give me a solo option with increased mob life etc. Characters in this game are all self sustaining so grouping should not be required.	Posted by hzflank#7985 on Oct 20, 2012, 11:12:23 AM Quote this Post
What you first describe is a problem that you totally outlevel the content not that it takes teamwork. Teamwork & splitting up are contradictory. Moving across a map - teamwork? while split up - teamwork? tp - teamwork? stash & vendor - teamwork? restart instance - teamwork? All of these things require zero teamwork & are just playing the game in general, just things you have to do whether partying or playing solo. Do they really take "alot of coordination"? Really?

Yes. Because the moment someone takes too long. Everyone else suffers. EDIT: I out level the content no matter where I am, so that's irrelevant Last edited by SL4Y3R#7487 on Oct 20, 2012, 11:22:02 AM	Posted by SL4Y3R#7487 on Oct 20, 2012, 11:19:58 AM Banned Quote this Post
If by "alot of coordination" you mean typing "new instance" in party chat then I see your point, other than that I don't see what you would be doing to coordinate?	Posted by lethal_papercut#5270 on Oct 20, 2012, 11:27:44 AM Quote this Post
If anyone takes too long vendoring, killing, running around. It throws the entire team off. If they're within distance, than the loot timer can drop in their name, and we gotta wait. If any time is wasted due to the inability of one member to work quickly, it's a waste of time.	Posted by SL4Y3R#7487 on Oct 20, 2012, 1:05:11 PM Banned Quote this Post

Better hope you have bottles to piss in, a mini fridge at your knees, and for the love of Wraeclast do not even think about a phone call, knock at the door or giving attention to your spouse or child. We are not here for fun and play ladies and gents. This is Wraeclast. Any hope of having even just a moment to yourself went out the door when you were banished. Now, pull yourself up, throw away those petty concerns of real life or natural needs or common courtesy, grab a spork and go stab something in the eye...you have 30 seconds. ...narf	Posted by SqueakyToyOfTerror#0940 on Oct 20, 2012, 5:20:05 PM Quote this Post

Honesty, though. Playing to maximize efficiency is the way I and many others like to play. I am looking forward to seeing what they've come up with, but I hope it doesn't mess with the benefits of grouping too much. Otherwise, its just not worth it too group except for high lvl map exp runs.	Posted by SL4Y3R#7487 on Oct 20, 2012, 5:24:04 PM Banned Quote this Post
