Short comings in Faction Elite Missions
I have 6 characters through to the end of Cantha. ie. Killed Shiro 6 times and it was only after the 5th time I had killed Shiro did I find out about the Elite Missions. After hanging around in House zu Heltzer begging for a taxi for at least 3 hours in total did I get to Urgoz. What did I find there 1 or 2 other players. Why dont they just make Vash and his counterpart in Cavalon stand in the public area so that these mission become available when the missions that open these "Guild Halls" become available.
Three friends, myself and 2 others did Urgoz up to the third area where we got stuck without a teleport spell. We did take along 9 heroes and it was a lot of fun for not much reward as the drops are poor here. But heroes work in Urgoz they dont in the "Deep" the teleport does not allow them through, or at least I could not see how to get them thru the teleport. After this weekend of free access to Urgoz I saw the worst in elitism in this game. Also the worst of playing with strangers came out.
It is a little tough so players just leave the game. Heroes do not DC. Also when it seems we should reform players are not willing to resign and do this. Besides waiting in a group for the mythical Ranger with the highest possible EoE build as a Canthan Necro (who had not the ability to BiP (then)) and being spuriously kicked for being a Noob. Which I guess the majority of people hanging around were. We at least have some chars parked in Urgoz and as heroes work there we will play it to see if we can get through.
