Magumma just opened open about 10 mins ago I think.
Regarding one-time events, I believe the rewards should be one time per account but the event itself, repeatable for those who missed it. I understand the concerns of people living in various parts of world and not being able to take place in them. Having the event run maybe 4 times a day would fix this problem and allow everyone a chance to participate. However, for receiving rewards, this should be constrained to one reward per account to avoid exploiting. I really enjoyed the rewards from Lost Shores even though I did not receive a legendary precursor as some of my friends did. I felt they were appropriate for the difficulty and length of the event; provided that you participated and did your fair share of killing karka. I hope to see more events like in the future that give similar rewards for completing epic events.
I’m 50/50 on this. In regards to Fractals, I would like to have an easier way to play the dungeon with people on the same difficulty level as I am on. It is tough to find people on my world/version of Lion’s Arch sometimes. In this special case, a better party search system or queue would be helpful. On the other hand, some sort of automatic queue or party maker seems unnatural. You could be forcibly paired up with incompetent people or have bad party profession compositions which would lead to much raging and quitting of parties. I think it would be best to leave it alone. I think it would be too difficult to get a balanced system set up. The quickest and easiest fix would be to improve party search across world.
I agree there should be some sort of soloable dungeon. I am a fan of playing alone sometimes and experiencing what my character can actually do without other people helping. Although one can already do this in general PvE, I would like to see some more difficult areas that require more finesse and skill to complete such as a single player dungeon. In normal PvE maps, other people can help you when you do not always want their help. Another fun possible idea would be a duo dungeon where two people go together and do not require a full group of five. This goes back to the idea of scaling based on group size.
