Yes, we were one of the first groups to kill Twintania (i.e. we weren't stacked with i90 gear), and we would kill one snake asap, then hold the second snake and kill it during dive bombs to extend...

An an experiment, I've put almost 13 hours into trying to kill Garuda EX on my tank alt over the past two weeks. One almost kill and no success.
All of the groups were party finders and required...

I don't really understand the logic behind allowing this.

I just joined a fresh CT with four people who were queued together. After King Behemoth, I said 'I just got my Black Mage to rank 10 in...

Good idea, let's just remove gear from the game because it's not an important aspect. We can just normalize everyone's stats.
If gear isn't an achievement, it has no reason to exist. I honestly...

They're talking about Turn 2 ADS, not Turn 1.

Making ADS not move is an acquired skill for tanks. They have to 'predict' when the AoE is going to go off and move back in to range as soon as...

Like I suggested, I think just not offering a full higher ilevel set from tomes is an acceptable fix. Instead, only allow a few of the slots to be bought with tomes.
It will give players who just...

There's a difference. I don't mind helping people learn the encounter if it's a party/duty finder, but if they die to the same thing five consecutive times without improvement and show that they have...

Even though it's not optimal, it's enough that you can out-gear most of BC and get the rest of the pieces, if you're so inclined.
This might be better in 2.2, but every mechanic in Turn 1 to 4 is...

Everyone has to work for their gear, but the problem I'm pointing to is that they don't have to improve to get better gear. They just have to go through the motions of running Wanderer's Palace or...

Accuracy cap isn't important. Take it from me.

We use four DPS and four stack fireballs, because everyone in our group actually knows how to play their job.

You're all missing the point, which is that giving out free loot to bad players makes it impossible to identify skilled players, as you can in other games.

Guess how hard it is to replace someone...

I've been running this for a total of ~14 hours this week.
I've managed to kill it five times.
I regularly go for 10-12 seconds without a single heal.

The problem is that the healers are tunnel...

There's nothing wrong with pointing out a wide problem. Most of you cannot DPS correctly, period.
Do you expect nobody to call you out when you do something wrong for months at a time in the real...

If you need to feed slimes after the split, you're in full i55 gear or playing with bad players (which is likely, because 99% of you can't even DPS correctly).

We were one of the first groups to...

Except this makes zero sense.
A better analogy would be you bench one ton and get a trophy for it, and then someone uses a crane to lift it and gets the same trophy.
The fact that the person with...

Gear should be available from myth, but not an entire set of the highest level gear. Maybe half of the pieces?
There needs to be some sort of reward for skilled players, and some sort of goal for...

I'm certain we could sell Twintania if we were so inclined. Before we stopped raiding last month, we had a minute to spare in a regular 2/2/4 group. Dropping one tank for a random would have been...

A prime example.

I just attempted to kill Ultima on my tank.
An i88 tank said 'first time here, what do i have to do,' to which I responded 'Just taunt off me at 3 stacks and move out of things....

There's basically none. If they continue with their mediocrity (really, sub-mediocrity in most cases), they'll eventually be handed the gear they couldn't normally attain, without making an effort to...

I had a five-person group in my party. I was pulling each pack of trash ten seconds after every alliance member was in the area.

They said 'Stop pulling, the other groups aren't ready.' The other...

Can we have this?

I just queued into an in progress CT where a group of 5 people kept pulling the boss out of the area, then having one person stay inside so it resets, but the gate doesn't come...

It spawned at exactly 30 minutes, which still seems a bit long.

Is there any chance of having the respawn rate of the CT FATEs increased, regardless of how many people are around?

Currently, I've been sitting here for almost 30 minutes, waiting for the...
