Nope, I'd suggest the opposite. Allow new characters to disable that shit and even better, allow players to choose the maximum amount of monsters they want to encounter in solo (would not affect ep's)
This can also be applied, I use to do my own solo catacombs when there wan't a limit on how many monsters spawned. Note: only did this with +max life gear and on Softcore because death means nothing.

ANyhow, idk why anyone would only want to find max 1 ep?
If you solo you either do it for prof or thinking that you can find better items solo.
So why only 1 ep? I would want a minimum of 2 eps if I solo..
I think that solo needs a buf so more ppl find it more rewarding doing solo
Also alot of ppl are sick of waiting for groups so they just start solo and pick up randoms along the way, if you had only options to go as solo or group it kinda fucks up the whole purpose imo. Sure I do understand what you want with this, but I dont understand why ppl would want the "newbie-system" when they solo instead of something harder / more rewarding.
I thought of this because of Heal Mastery nerf and Monster Abilities update, especially Slugslider when he can spawn more, there are also times when he is teamed up with those that immobilise your actions including to leave the catacombs. It becomes a nuisance, especially when I tried to well a level 55 item and a Slugslider spawned and my gear was insufficient to kill all 9 in time to reap any reward, thus having to leave game.

I do want things to buff up solo'ing, it takes me around 11 hours to go from 1-71 with semi reasonable gear and knowledge of the game itself, so when people that have no items, currency or knowledge of the game, it could be useful. Note: useful.
As for all other comments made, all good.
The simplified idea I suppose can be implemented in the game settings to either turn it on if wanted. If people want to solo and get in fillers, then they don't need to turn it on. Simple.
