Well, NGS will have gear score so that might be something.

If the triboost brings out that much ugliness in people then maybe it should just not exist.

Not just that but the whole party system could use an overhaul. The triboost was just a tool to push people to party up but they apparently failed to realize that there was never really a point in doing so. They should remove the triboost and adjust the rates accordingly. If they just wanted to create a situation where people get to play together then the matchmaking system is already sufficient. Parties are there to ensure that players who want to play together stay together but there is no need to incentivise that because the incentive is already there.

But even beyond that, they should have fixed the most common issues ("What to do when the leader wants to force a new quest / reset: A: go along or B: leave the party and stay behind." and "How "leaving a party" is handled: upon leaving a party A: abandon the quest or B: do not abandon the quest") a long time ago. There is really no excuse for their inaction here.

This is a good point. I do think they should improve on that. Usually you have to hope that the party leader is playing with good etiquette and not re-trying before you have a chance to loot. I do agree that the triboost is only a bandaid.

If a person starts early I will leave that MPA, bringing along my party. Simple as that.

I would like triggers to not have an acceptance window. I see no reason for that. It makes it feel like an 'urgent' quest you'd need to hop into in the beginning.

I enjoy armada greatly. I'd say more but don't feel so good at the moment.

Right, I forgot. My gunner has party toughness as well.

Usually this matters most to me when grinding levels. Any other time I'm not as caring about it. Especially if I am running Exp Boost, Tri-boost, and Tree Buff. I think it would be better if solo players could queue with each other and there be a setting for people that want to party. This would probably be better for all involved rather than forcing them together.

@Milk this happened a few hours ago lol

clearly I was not interested in joining and he got to the point of spamming invite and threatening to leave the mpa

some people really need to go get some air and calm down

I don't understand what joining a party does besides triboost. Does it increase damage for everyone in the party? Do you get quicker PP recovery when in a party? Do you get a team PA you can use when everyone is close enough?

Rare Boost, EXP Boost, Meseta Boost. It's multiplicative so it is a big boost for sure. It's party fomo, I probably wouldn't be as annoyed if it weren't multiplicative. I do agree they were harassing, but I think they are in their right to leave the MPA and go to a new room if they want another possible party member. They should simply have left quietly.

So.. it doesn't do anything beside triboost? Is that what you are saying?

Yup

What if i join a UQ but dont join a party? When I go into a UQ OR SOMETHING that you need 8-12 PEOPLE for. I'm playing for my time. I do not care about anyone else.

Then you are being a nuisance, and I'd rather not play in the same group and I would leave until I get someone in my party. If I could, I'd vote you out to find another MPA so I could find someone to join my party. Not entirely your fault, it is on Sega for forcing people willing to party and those wanting to solo content together. Still, it's annoying to have to be only three because of players that are un-willing to join parties when it boosts themselves and others.

What in the world? that triboost really do be hitting different huh? You are being a nuisance. You should make a party before going into a UQ so people who are solo don't feel harassed to have to join a party. See it works both ways.

I wouldn't be. Just be aware that at any point you or any other player wants to stay solo, a party will be without a fourth party member. (Since there usually are parties that are already full, so there is no opportunity to gain another member except by leaving and joining another MPA) Also note, I don't harass people to join my party. So no, it doesn't go both ways. Also yes, the tri-boost does hit different, it is multiplicative so it's quite a loss if you don't have a full party.
