Instance Dungeons should be a thing

So for those who have never played any big MMORPG ill briefly explain what instance dungeons are

Basically its any form of dungeon I.e Blackrock Spire from WoW
But the special thing about instance dungeons is they can be immensely large or complex
but have little to no effect on the server.

The idea is offline in a folder you've got a separate world save which would contain said dungeon.
And whenever players approach the entrance to the dungeon in the live world, they are added to a queue and then eventually teleported to a freshly generated version
of the dungeon that is only open while a party of people is inside.

Adding Instance dungeons say instead of regular dungeons is that they greatly reduce the resources necessary.
And add a great deal of expand-ability when it comes to custom items.
Give players a reason to complete these dungeons! I.e

Boss Exclusive Drops
Exp and monetary reward
More server depth
And adds room for more lore to the world so that it is more immersive \
Also allows for multiple parties to be in the "same" dungeon at the same time, just in different instances of it.
And lastly would encourage players to go out and explore, or to conquer new territory

Hopefully I described my idea well enough!
Thanks!

We've nearly done this a handful of times; unfortunately the sheer amount of work it takes to not only to create and develop the feature, but the inevitable constant demand for new content requires incredible resources (which we truly don't really have at this time). This combined with the fact that Loka's main focus is Conquest and not really PvE Dungeon crawling is the reason we've never released any stuff like this.

That said, always love new ideas, so keep em comin!

I would love this to be a thing but sadly like Cryptite said it's just not possible with our current staff. Maybe one day in the future when we have a bigger team, one can dream :)
