Either they come up with good group ideas but the restrict them behind a weekly. Or behind horrible rewards pool... Oooor... they come up with horrible group content and then proceed to punish players who go there with horrible rewards pool.

dontbe silly expecting mmo content in mmo game.

I'm on and off in my enjoyment of BDO group content.  My main gripe is the party finder. The party finder is being permanently camped by under-geared players scamming others into power leveling them. This is because the party finder does not allow even the bare minimum of gear requirements for higher level zones. You see this all time at upper gyfin with players posting groups with high requirements and then you see those same players getting spiked down by mobs during the run or constantly standing away from the group to avoid the rest of the group seeing them getting spiked down. Implement at least a bare-minimum gear check optional function into the party finder...that even applies to the poster...even after mid-party character swaps. 

I haven't tried the schultz area, but like others have said, no real reason to go there...at least not as a vet player.  I did waragons on one season alt, but that wasn't really worth it either.  Miru, Turos, Gyfin upper, and Oluns would be the only worthwhile group grind spots.  Of those 4, Turos and Gyfin upper are plagued by under-geared leeches in disguise unless you form your party outside of the finder.  All 4 of those areas are great in terms of mechanics, content, and silver/loot (ignoring the apparent recent stealth nerf on belt drops at Gyfin Upper). 

I'm a player that plays whenever I have free time and not necessarily on the same schedule as my guild.  That makes the party finder a necessary tool for me unless I solo grind.  It would be great if there could be some minimal controls/assurances included in the tool to at least insure functional/worthwhile groups as an option. 

Also please make changing party loot type be an option that the entire party..or at least the majority of the party has to approve...not just the party leader.

Most of MMO games are mostly focused around solo content, because coop content in long term fail exams and players demand more n more solo content. Waiting for others giving up because party member must end and situation where in this scenario u cant play where you want is annoying. Same story with raids they are fun, but in the end we have toxicity or noobs who dont care, dont know mechanics, destroying your experiance and fun .. 

I agree.
More party spots are needed. 

The party spots should grant some more benefits compared to solo spots only because there is more effort put into gathering the party members synchronizing etc.

Currently, only Gyfin Upper is a viable spot to grind in the party for the majority of the playerbase. The only other party spot worth time spending on is Oluns, but not many people can afford it. The others are not worth the time.

It is totally fine to have the majority of the spots solo in this game, but we need at least 2-3 party spots viable to grind for some diversity, not just one spot. 2-3 more party spots that can compete the solo spots would be great.

Maybe some special scaling based on the number of party members participating could be applied to some spots (just an idea).

Hopefully, the new region brings some fresh party content to the game.

Absolutely. I cannot agree more.  And I'm glad to see your post is receiving so many upvotes. 
Just on Elvia zones; I don't think it's too much to hope for just one duo, one trio, and one full group area per region. There are ample grinding zones to accommodate this. Make their mechanics fun with a little variety, give them good rewards, and see them become (and remain) very popular. 

And please PA, perhaps think about returning the group content you've removed from the game over the years.

I feel like each region including Elvia, and hopefully an "Elvia" version of each region, should have a upper gyfin/trees level party spot to make profit and play with guildies or friends or meet new players. I randomly wanted to do Basi and Wargon and this random player joined me and we had a blast. Cool people like that is what I play MMOs for.

If I had to suggest:

The West part of the map has 2 on each so they are golden

Drieghan maybe turn Necro nights into a party spot or add new area. Maybe even use Garmoth's nest until it appears

Calpheon has elvia but could add a really tough party spot for those "I have too much AP" people

Serendia maybe a low level on at mudster area for early early group play.

Mediah could just rework Shultz to drop more silver or maybe some artifacts relating to HP and Melee that aren't immediately alched or something new. rn there's barely any reason to go there over anywhere else.

Balenos easily make cron castle, some island, or add a little more incentive to padix.

Valencia has sooo much potential in adding another party spot or rework Wargon maybe add the meat or blood to something new so the items dropped are desired more. Ez day

This reminds me of Sausan's / Pirate's when everyone was in Grunil gear and gunning for Liverto weapons.  Groups would grind these spots' main rotations while smaller, side rotations, would see solo players or duos.  What I personally loved about this is that real-time party finding was a thing....I remember tons of times when I was grouped in Pirate's main where random players would approach and ask to join.  And times where I'd go up to groups and ask myself...I even remember waiting, or others waiting, on that tall stack of boxes for a spot to free up to join if a party was full at the time.

This was really great and something that is amiss in today's game.  I miss the real-time player interactions like that.  It was so organic.  And also, you can't speak of BDO without mentioning some of the organic "drama" that could occur as well, because these spots were highly sought after.  These were the two most profitable spots and gave the most EXP, so there were times where other groups would try to overtake a spot by force.  I know many people in these forums loathe PvP (for whatever reason), but man -- to me, these were the glory days of BDO.  The feeling of triumph when successfully defending the spot.  The feeling of motivation to get stronger when losing.  A lot of that, least to me, is amiss in today's game.  Which is almost like everyone is just grinding solo like zombies.  Or going into the party finder menu instead of actively seeking out others in the open world.  While the menu is good for convenience, what the game lost was organic, real-time, group seeking - in grind zones - that Pirate's and Sausan's once had back in the day.

Would be great to relive some of those memories with a solo'able + group'able grind zone that is highly sought after.
