Is it time to have a discussion about the ability to have multiple teams??

With the new Ordeal challenges, i’ve found myself not able to even think about other content. i don’t have the time (or the skill) to breeze through Everest content (like GG and Abyss next week) and still have time in the day to play EQ and SQ (i’m retired from AW, but i can only imagine active alliances are feeling the same gripe)

i think it would be beneficial to have a conversation about summoners being able to have multiple teams simultaneously being able to do different kinds of content. at times i only have 5-10 minutes to play MCOC, as it stands now i could play a BGs match, or go do a single fight in the Ordeal challenge (if that, maybe i screw up and die before even finishing a fight) i think it would be great if i could have the ability to take different champs and maybe crush out 3-5 fights in EQ without needing to worry about my progress in the Ordeal challenges.

just food for thought

Kabam, send this man the rewards for free. Why would we ever have to even play the game to get them? Right?

Cause somehow having multiple teams to do multiple areas gives you MORE TIME to do those things.

Had i known I would magically gain MORE TIME by having these changes I woild have advocated for it years ago!

Imagine being able to gain MORE TIME by having multiple teams to do multiple things

For those that failed to understand, OP means that if you're currently in some Everest content quest, but just want to lazily (actually, as we all do, just AUTO-PLAY) the Daily Quests when we got some energy, to knock out the DSE and simple Daily rewards).

You maybe don't have the “time” to commit to concentrating back on the Everest quest you're still in.

And even when you might have some time to devote, you don't want to feel like it HAS TO BE continuing the Everest quest, just because otherwise you're Energy-Locked at 70. Versus using the little concentrating time you have on a little bit of BG, or doing your AW fights, etc.

Just let us use out max'd energy for some other non-focused background quests. (while our position remains in the Everest quest too).

I’d say only 2 MAX quests, since otherwise you could have unfinished quests all over the place.

Actually, this is a suggestion that has come up repeatedly over the years. I myself have made it in the past, and I think it is something that makes sense for the long-form end game content specifically.

A lot of players don't want to engage with the long-form content because it locks them into it for potentially long periods of time when they can't do any other quest content. While some people might literally lack the time to do it, even more people theoretically have the time, but aren't able to focus on it consistently and knock it out all at once. It took me two days to get through the Gauntlet when it first came out, and four days to get through Necropolis, pacing myself through it. A lot of people probably could do that stuff but refuse to get stuck in it.

Some people might say that the length and need to focus on in continuously for extended periods of time is part of the challenge of it, but I would argue that there is no actual time limit for that content, the only limitation is locking players out of other quest content while it is being run. Whether that penalty makes sense in the modern game is something I think is questionable.

Different game modes have their own roster locks. You can do quests and AQ at the same time, because it would be an enormous penalty to force players to choose one or the other. I would place all of the long-form end game content into its own group that could be run independently of other content. You could only do one of them at a time, but you could do them while doing other things including normal quests. And this is not even a novel idea as this already exists: the Crucible already operates in this way. You can do Crucible at the same time as normal quest content. The question is only whether other content deserves similar treatment.

Sorry the game is designed with MSD in game

Lower skilled players like us just have to suck it up with the restrictions and limitations

Apparently I did fail to understand, since I'm the only one who commented before you posted this. 🤣

Now I get it though, and it sure as hell would make sense to have it so you can at least auto fight dailies if you don't have time for whatever quest you're currently in.

They have the tech to do this (as seen in crucible) but haven’t implemented it anywhere else. Of course it won’t be in Ordeal or Abyss as those are older, recycled content. But we can hope for the epoch gauntlet and future new content.

They won't do it because people will just hit RoL to farm revives and potions to get them through end game content instead of using units to buy them.
