    Why oh why? I like doing the chests looting and I like to run them alone. Now I have to find someone to fake team with me. Silly Devs!

    Yep, look at how few people run beacons on caly because of the same stupid rule for teams.

    No, Golden Key Door has had no change.
    The reason to that is there is no solo version of the Golden Key, so if you would like to run it alone you are free to do so just as before

    Seriously? I also liked the chests....and I made a shit ton of ark 1 keys to run since I looted a golden key bp....well, anyone want a bulk discount I guess? If I can't get golden parts from keys (and I've never heard of anyone getting golden key parts from the solo instances) then I have absolutely no reason to run Aakas....

    So u can still run the team instances alone. It's just a pain to work around.
    Find someone to team with you. Enter the instance on your own. Dissolve the team. (or leave it in place just make sure the team loot settings don't screw you our of loot).

    I still think it was a not so good move for the Devs but we can deal with it.

    I mean yes, it can be dealt with, but at best it's not going to change anything and say worst it's going to discourage people from doing aakas - so at best it was a waste of the developers time and at worst it's going to potentially cost them money. So really either way it costs them money. It's not like the people who wanted to actually team for Aakas couldn't already do so.

    I'd much rather the developers time be wasted instead by pestering MA to get the gold rush results...

    You can loot golden key parts and other rare items if you run it solo , if you want to loot chests just get someone in a team and u can enter , i dont think this is a big issue.

    You can loot golden key parts but very rarely and even running a couple dozen key 10 solos the best I've had are a few gears.

    When you do solo you loot a bunch of garbage loot like oils. Chests almost never have that. And to this date I've never looted key parts in solo.
