you can't spell agnes tachyon without e

sounds like she's a real BIG SHOT

imo, I think osrs's biggest problem with group content is onboarding - you need to get people used to role based group content early. but not only does the content itself need to be easy, grouping itself needs to be easy. as the content gets harder, you can justify the grouping getting harder. 1/5

you'd have a smooth progression, and can justify making bosses like yama more role based. this isn't an easy fix for a lot of reasons (time to gear, no fixed progression, critical mass of group content). but i think it's something they need to be serious about if they truly want group content. 5/5

royal titans was a good idea but doesn't solve grouping. imagine if toa had do be done in a group - but entry mode had npc players that forced you to learn group mechanics (monkey room callouts, baba rock stacks, akkha white orbs). give normal mode matchmaking, expert and up a recruitment board. 4/

extreme is a noticable step up in difficulty - so you can justify making it a little harder to group up. xiv's party recruitment board is a bit more friction than the matchmaker - but that's fine. progress further into savage -> ultimate and you can justify harder grouping (e.g. a static) 3/5

compare to ffxiv - you get funnelled into low stakes dungeons from the start. you can even do those solo now - but importantly with NPCs who act like players. then the difficulty goes up a smidge with normal + alliance raids - but grouping is still easy with role based matchmaking. 2/5
