Blizz, please add weaker AI Bots to Dark Citadel so we can play it or have a solo window like helltide, because no one is

I don’t feel that getting gear solo is bad in an ARPG tbh. It is expected of you to be able to get that gear on your own. Are you allowed to trade with people for said items? Yeah, but so many items have been duped, so hard to know what you are getting for sure. But…if you are yet another proponent of RMT, please just see yourself out :grimacing:

It is an online co-op ARPG that has a live service… You literally aren’t running around and greeting everyone on one or even several large servers–there are literally server shards in this game that only hold 12 people per shard. MMOs have servers capable of holding many more people than that…the devs have stated over and over that it’s online co-op, not an MMO.

Now, if you were to say that D4 is like an MMO, then yes–I’d be inclined to agree. Here’s the literal definition of a raid, since you still seem to think that a raid is one small group of four people in an instanced dungeon…

a raid is a type of mission in [Massively multiplayer online role-playing games] where a much larger number than usual of people specifically gather in an attempt to defeat either: (a) another number of people at [player-vs-player] (PVP), (b) a series of computer-controlled enemies (non-player characters; NPCs) in a [player-vs-environment] (PvE) or (c) [a very powerful boss] (superboss). This type of objective usually occurs within an [instance dungeon], a separate server instance from the other players in the game. A raid may be highly planned and coordinated or arise nearly spontaneously through word of mouth communications in- and out-of game.

I would not consider 2-4 people a “large group”. Is it larger than just a single person? Yes, but it isn’t several groups of those 2-4 players is my point.

Edit: I apologize if my definition of a raid felt like it was insulting your intelligence somehow–I could see how that would be a thing tbh. Just posted it to provide some clarification.

Double-decker Edit: Here’s the conversation with someone I had in a post I created. Just in case you are wanting some sort of verification about server shards and their capacity being a thing:
