    It is only a 10 member squad for the new area and its daily quest. You can have a ten man squad when ever you want but not for your BH/FB/TT/FCC

    no....bull****. I got my crew together to do a ten man run in fc? nothing. We had to have 4 sit it out....wtf is that ****? Why give us ten people squads, then not allow us to use them? Thats like giving someone a cookie and saying they cant eat it.
    I don't see people begging for Assassins to come save them.
    I don't see people spamming for BM or Archer buffs in Archosaur.
    I don't see people asking to be revived by Barbs, Seekers, or Psychics.
    You know what I do see?
    'OMG I NEED A CLERIC!'
    'Any clerics nearby that can buff me?'
    'Can you rez me? I need a rez.'

    I'm still curious if anyone has tried to take the 10 person squad into a nine trial since that is a somewhat "new" instance. It is even one that allows mounts, which sorta sets it apart in some ways from the rest of the instances...although is similair to tw.

    And again, it was upped to a ten person squad for the new Morai dailies.

    yet we ALL can make a ten person squad...why even set up the option outside the new map if they wont let anyone use it? I refer back to the cookie example. The devs give cookies to me and tell me I cant eat it, then give one to my friend in the new expansion, who begins chowing down. Then they both troll laugh at me. Not exactly a good way to bring in new players, OR keep older ones.

    Again should anything that PW does surprise you? Should it? Why they upped it to ten people I have no clue. Dropped the daily boss in a minute with the 10 people I had already today.

    This is true, but I still want them to either make it for everyone, or specific. Dont give me a sword I can only use in a certain dungeon, but am allowed to hold all the time. That makes no sense, they just need to take it out completely, or make it 10 man squad all the time, not some weird mix of both.

    Content aimed for a 6 person squad would be way too easy with 10 people. They have the choice to make current content harder (= QQ from many) or restrict the 10 person squads to more difficult new content.

    You have no idea why they upped it to ten?

    Well, I'm not positive either, but I have an idea.

    There are 10 different classes. If I remember right, the new instance gets a bonus of some sort if all 10 slots are unique (i.e. one of each class).

    So, 10 slots = one of every class = no class needs to be excluded = hopefully less QQ.

    But again, that's just my guess.b:shutup

    Yea I know about the bonus, but 10 people just tear through that daily boss like nothing. Its not a big jump in xp, about .02% but still.

    I hope they keep it this way. After a while PWI can get boring and having different size squads for different things keeps the boredom at bay just a tiny bit.

    What level is required to get to do the boss? If it's 95, then the boss might be tuned so that it can be killed by a squad of 10 decently geared level 95 characters, which would then of course make it super easy for people 100+.

    Why do I see so many people come to the forum QQing about "Noooo, we had a 10-man suqad rdy for [whatever "old" instance], but only 6 could get in", when on the same forum, there had been a thread talking about this BEFORE the patch...

    Sure, big bosses in open world will be easier, but heck, you could just get a few top level players to take it before 10-man, and I guess you wouldn't QQ about it going down too fast then.

    Stuff that are supposed to be done with a few people, will still be ment for few people. Stuff that require more people, will still be ment for more people. When you're doing normal "kill XX of these" quests, you can do it solo. Why not QQ about this going too fast because they allow it to be done with a squad? Just an exampleb:chuckle

    Not mocking any specific person, just amused by the ignorance of some people.

    Done in 10 minutes, and very little exp? In other words, no fun... People selling power leveling would get richer faster though.

    System
    Squad Changes
    The group limit has been increased to 10 players.
    New Morai dungeons may be attempted with 10 players.
    Current Perfect World instances are still capped at 6 players.
    @ OP b:sweat Patch notes, people, patch notes. Read please. They help you to QQ less about things that were intentional.

    @ Discussion At first I thought this was a rather silly thing, since there was no point unless you really wanted to chat with 4 people outside of your bh while staying in squad chat. Now that I think about it though, I don't want to have heal 10 people in BH69 or something equally crazy. So I'm fine with it the way it is. b:shocked
