I just had a quick idea. Maybe its rubbish, but I am sure you guys will tell me, if its so.
I was thinking of a scout mode:
When not more than 4 other friendly players are withing a certain range, you would get a boon representing a scout mode, awarding you with some magic find bonus and such. That might create some incentive for roamers and such to do their work. Or maybe it simply works the other way around and you would have that boon by default. If you run with a zerg though, it would be removed.
What do you think?
