Im a level 44 adventurer now, and I took a mission inAndromeda the onlywayfor me toget there was to swim across the river, impossible, you need a death wish to cross that river on foot, I think there should be a way to buy a fairie across?Originally posted by Loostik
It IS appreciated that actually some actions are undertaken to revive Outdoor hunting.
Nevertheless, Dijou is right, if nothing else is one, outdoor hunting will still remain either unfeasible ( solo) or not motivating enough to gather teams. Motivation for team outdoor hunting is currently only based on Unique items, which leads to a very predictable outcome : camping...
Solo mission in team is shockingly easy. With a team of 6 level 90 guild mates ( 2 docs) we actually finished a level 180 mission in BS, without the feel of a real danger.... How is that possible ? Of course this creates
1°) an incredible imbalance in the reward ( XP and loot) between missions and outdoor hunting, and that DOES minimize you chance to find a full team for Outdoor hunting
2°) a boredom feeling... If i can already do level 180 missions at level 90, what will be new and exciting for me in the coming months ?
Clearly, FC must find a way to nfluence the difficulty of a solo mission depending on the number of Key Holder for this mission
But the risk with "key count" is that you would soon see hords of Engineers getting solo mission for their team and warping them inside...
So maybe difficulty should be based on "Key count", AND the engineer warp should become outdoor only ( => Teammates can be warped at the entrance of the mission) ... < I can see major flaming coming >
Anyhow, lets keep on drawing funcom's attention on this issue. Solving that would make undoubtedly AO the most exciting MMORPG EVER ( i have played a few for the past 3 years...)
