Multi-player PQ or Boss

Hi, I'd like to suggest another thing regarding PQ's and bossing.

Well, the thing is. The game sometimes feels like a SoloStory, instead of MapleStory. A lot of times, you go to a boss and solo it, you almost never take a party of 6 or something. In rare cases where you cant defeat the boss alone, you take perhaps another person with you - but even that, is very rare.

So, why not make certain changes that would encourage partying? That includes PQ's, too. Where in most PQ's today, either they are not being done at all, or people solo them with party mules.

Thanks

    This is mostly a problem with the meta of the game, rather than the game design itself. (at least imo)
    Bosses are a lot lower level than people actually go into them at for the most part.
    The only way I can see bosses working more as intended would be to put a curve on how much damage you can deal to a boss.
    If you don't artificially limit the stronger players, power creep will always allow them to overlevel a boss into oblivion.

    The majority of the endgame content is all party based. The earlier portion of the game is mostly a party or solo option though

    Commerci Party Quest, Ursus, Princess No, Cross World Party. Lucid + Will runs. There's a lot of stuff people partying for.
