you cant bring NEED into an arguement about video games. nobody NEEDS anything from a game its about what you would like... i can turn it around .. why do you care if anyone else is max light regardless if they raid or not. how does it affect you ?

I don’t. I’m just trying to understand what you want. If I’m avoiding the word “need” then doing the raid is the only thing that [i]requires[/i] max light. So if you’re solo and you’re not doing raids, then you don’t [i]require[/i] max light. So why would you [i]require[/i] activities or avenues to get max light as a solo player?

I agree for the most part about the max light in correlation to raids, but the reason behind wanting ML as a solo player is simple--progress. It gives you something to do, something to build your play choices around, something to work for (aka the simplistic beauty of "the grind").

I hear what you’re saying; but achieving max light is a useless grind if you’re not gonna use it. I guess saying it gives you something to do is fair. But you’re still totally capable of getting it WITHOUT matchmaking. You can use the forums/LFG. Which I highly recommend. I met all of my best online friends there

I feel ya. One thing you have to keep in mind though is "useless" is a very relative adjective. It may seem useless, but sometimes ownership is the only use it has--and that's ok. I may never race on a rally course, but having a fully built STI equipped and ready to do so at any moment is a fun progression. The time and energy put into the build is a reward in its own.
