Ok, yeah, I'll admit my original topic was not Rocket Surgery.

Unfortunately, my guild is going through a period where we have something like 19 really top quality raiders and a rotating handful of folks just useless enough to hold us back in our progression.

What I should have said was not *solo* quests, but simply quests, heroic quests would quite honestly be better for my intended purpose, which is to weed out lazy people, before they ever even cross my path.

im finally levelling up my bruiser alt from 70-80 and its ilke playing a different game since im levelling him alone as opposed to my main whom i levelled with my gf. i have to admit its pretty fun on a bruiser, but there's no accounting for taste and i see the OP's point to an extent, but by no means am i endorsing the idea as being anything like "optimal". i think it makes more sense than just slaughtering 10,000 mobs tbh, but a little of both would probably be better.

maybe they could institute a test for each class (in the same vein as when you started as a mage, passed a test to be a sorcerer, and the same for wizard/warlock). i think i would like something like that, only harder, and for every say 5 levels. won't happen, but seems like fun.

Here, let me fix it for you:

Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game.

That's what's left when you make it solo only. No role playing, since you are doing the same exact 400 quests as everyone else. Multiplayer is just scenery running by, stealing your mobs. Massively? Maybe ever since they threw a bone to everyone who got burned out on it.

If you want to play solo games and chat online, install an instant messenger program and run it alongside a SNES emulator. Strictly fun-wise, Castlevania games are more fun than solo questing in EQ2. ;)

The trials in the Isle of Mara (aka Village of Shin) were a good start.

Or they'll stick with tradition, nerf a bunch of stats or mechanics to half their power, and let you earn your way back to 3/4's via AA points.

I have done damn near every quest in RoK on more then one toon. I hated every minute of it. And the OP is right about one thing. The best guildies are those that get stuff done. Slackers and cry babies do not make good guildies.

Every expansion SoE tells us what we need to do and like good little lemmings we do it. Solo quests, heroic grinding, raiding Avatars, whatever. We do it because we want to progress our toons in the game we pay to play.

If SoE were to tell us that the only way to advance from level 80-90 is to eat shit then 50% of us will reach for a fork. We will hate it, it is shit after all, but we will do it. As for the 50% that dont want to eat the shit, fuck you. I ate the shit you can too. No, I will not help you eat the shit. In fact, I dont want you in my guild if all you are going to do is cry about eating the shit. If you spent half the time eating the shit as you do crying about the shit then the shit would be done already.

leave the level cap where it is.. bring in tons of raid/grp content and hopefully make the game fun again.. if we wanted to do a bunch of solo quests and play alone we wouldnt be playing mmo's.. let people get to know eachother and use teamwork to figure things out ! if this game doesnt start forming more of a community like it had in t5-6 then people are going to walk away..

I wish I hadnt read the OP's post - and I was going to say wow, what a crock of ...

However it wouldn't be very constructive - constructive is what Obsidian said Kill all that agree with this post
