There needs to be some way to make it easier to team up or be able to contact others on the same quest.
Notice board one can list with or?
Some of the fights are becoming almost impossible to do alone, and if they are done alone they take way too long to complete. Currently about the only option is to get henchmen which is expensive for the player plus they do not work well in some cheating boss fights. Yes I do recognize the need for it to be challenging.
Perhaps solo fights could be given a stat boost like increased resistance for some fights, which is cancelled out if there is a team.
Another problem is the length of time for some dungeons, they are too long. A lot of us cannot stay up to 4 hours playing at a time. Perhaps we could be able to leave the dungeon part way through and be able to come back to it without losing what we have gained. I have no doubt that a lot of hard core gamers will not agree with this but there could be some choices introduced.

At the moment your best bet is the new team up button the issue with it is that a lot of people either give up (especially in high levels) before reaching the dungeons people need help on or there are people who have completed the quest but it was such a nightmare that they will never look back at it (which is my feeling for all of azteca way too many fire enemies in there)

At the moment you can only stay out of the dungeon for about 5 minutes without loosing progress with the call back button though I wish there was a way to jump right back in just because a lot of times in long battles the internet goes out midway and i have to go out and find a new team all over again.

Dungeons do not reset after 5 minutes. The reset after 30 minutes, which is plenty of time to revitalize yourself and get back in. (I just did Big Ben again yesterday - this is confirmed)

Others have brought up the same thing about the solo player. A couple threads have been made including one I did recently.

Hopefully the links will work. If not they are on page 6 now..

If they did a solo, dual, trio, quad player option at the sigils. It would be great to have something where you could chose a higher number player then going in and what ever the extra slot won could be split among the players. A solo going in and choosing 2 would get double the drops, dual players choosing 3 split the extra, etc.
