efficiency of builds and legend extension are probably big parts of it, yeah, but...again, there's time consumption as i've stated before. sometimes, you just don't have the time to boogie down a big ass two hour dungeon on your own, if you're not online during the rush hour when people are clearing out those fat loot holes.

sometimes you just need a quick alternative to keep convenience at an all-time high. not to mention how monsters have been slowly getting rebalanced to provide a challenge all their own, which results in an even lengthier leveling period. i know the monster armor was nerfed pretty significantly recently, but that stuff can still destroy a pure magic, or even pure melee, PVE build and result in a pretty harrowing experience.

it's a matter of keeping your players motivated towards actually completing their own builds, and, once they're done, having leftover motivation after the hell that is grinding to stay active and relevant in the RP community.

but yes, as pantherprincess suggests, you could even incorporate it as an actual feature and save a lot of people their funny little grievances.
