So…it’s obvious the vault of loom or malphas is designed to be done in a group, 4 keys, 4 seperate rooms to get the keys yet there is no way in the game to create groups, no group finder, trade/local chat is rarely used, have to use a discord server to find groups and even that is daunting at times. Why make content like this if there isn’t going to be any type of group finder in the game? Too hard for the poor devs to make? Probably. It’d probably make their little midget brains overheat.

ITs quite apparent they took many shortcuts in making the game and socials was on the chopping block. We dont even have D3 functionality here.

Gojira I’m gonna need you to retard that anger before you go destroying Tokyo again. It’s a game, let it go my friend, it’s not worth fighting Mothra over again.

I think years ago, when they were dreaming this up, that the core game would have a group finder.

join an active clan? i usually just do full clan runs when i am going to do anything
It’s a time sink for all - less so if you’re in a group - and it’s so dull!
Why fight through lvl100 trash to farm 4 ‘keys’ from 4 mini dungeons after I have already had to farm 3 separate items to even access the boss - all to get an item with a 3% drop chance that will be lost to me in 2 months - drop chance needs buffing, bad luck protection to stop you getting the same stone twice needs adding and let’s just go straight to the boss without these mini-dungeons.

750 runs to get a stone to drop chance on 0,075% not 100% chance

I’ve done over 300 runs, seen many fresh 100s join the group get genesis & ebonnight within a few runs on their characters and they’re done.
I on the other hand who levelled all my stuff to lvl 10 straight away still haven’t got a single one. What a fun game, I had over 500 cores to begin with, now down to 50, when it runs out I’m done with this buggy spaghetti code season.

you are able to use the forums. why not ask for a group here? i mean, dont get me wrong, more social options are cool, but there are ways to find groups here, and in game already.
locking seasonal content behind rng is dumb, unique stone should be craft able once you get the pet stone’s to level 10
To be honest, after i get the Stones from Malphas i am done.
Grind the hot Pots to get Mats to Grind the “Trip to the Moon”.
If it was a Dungeon like Duriel i would give it a shot once in a while, but something that takes “30 minutes” is just…
I try many times to get a Group for Malphas, either nothing or Lvl “70” want to Leech but can’t finish Part of the Dungeon, so you end up doing the Dungeon yourself.
Why even bother?
Agree, adding a “group-friendly” activity was actually a great idea, but without any actuals means to get said group, it sux
It’s fair to say the game is not “booming” with players and excitement.
From a personal pov : my clan is dead (2-3 people online), my friend list was kindof full in S2 and is not also dead/offline/playing another Bliz game, and trade chan is silent 
Been trying to run Malph since 2 days now, only to get once in a group that dissolved after 2 runs because one of the guys was just there to leech. Yesterday evening, i spend 2,5 hours in game, trying to build a group (while doing other things obviously, not standing in town). After these 2 hours there were 15 messages in the trade chan : 13 were from me and 2 from random dudes looking to buy Duriel runs - sad
Thank you, yes one of my biggest gripes with this game. It is so lonely and feels 100% singleplayer. It would make it soo much better if we had group finders, global chats/lfg/trade channels etc.
Forget social features. They clearly have no clear vision about what the game is suppoused to be. Trade was stripped, group play efficiency is 4x compared to solo play, there is so much damage in the game that group content can’t even scale to last more than few seconds, you have an always online game for the sole purpose of monetization, and your only social feature (clans ) is barely functional and useless.
It feels like they tried to make an MMO and then scrapped it half way through but kept the most annoying parts of the genre. Now they are stuck having to balance both multi and single player without knowing what the idea is.

To me this is the huge problem with the game design in general. I’m fine with seasons, I like them cause I enjoy the climb of a new char. But it’s like they think they’ll be around forever or something. It’s okay for people to get a few hundred runs at a boss with minimal friction to get their chase item because they only have 3 months to do this in.
Making me run around helltides for mats, to fight a boss for mats, to fight the boss I want to fight doesn’t make me want to do the grind - it makes me want to just stop playing cause i’m wasting my time.

Making group content that wants you to not play together is idiotic.

Yes. Yes and Yes to all of this. I have no idea why they make you do an annoying 4 lane dungeon after you already farmed the mats. Couldn’t agree more.
This is the whole point of clans and discord and the friend list, there is no need for a group finder when we already have it.
