Take for example, parties for NNI, they use CORs for their 2hour via either shouts or DDs changing jobs, if thats not available, they use MMM or Revits from Besieged or Abyssea. People in Dyna doing ADL use CORs, people in Prov use CORs in the event of a wipe. These are things people do to avoid that problem and circumvent it.
    Instead of derailing, stay on topic. The reason i stated i prefered two hour abilities to one hour is exactly that. A two hour ability is better, the reason for the embrava nerf and perfect defense nerfs, are because they are already powerful two hour abilities and when the DEV decidied to change all two hours to one hour recast they said those two abilites will have to be nerfed because they would be even more overpowered as 1 hour abilites. Conclusion, if the recast time for an ability were longer than the ability itself can be greater, I.E. balance.

    Instead, you chose to lecture about obvious stuff, like cor in adl fights, lmao, no shit.

It encourages you to explore the whole breadth of content rather than asking you to bumrush and bypass all the old content just so you can grind the newer content. This is a model used by other MMOs such as WoW, and while I don't have anything against people that enjoy this model, if I wanted to play an MMO with that model there are many, many games vast superior to XI in terms of mechanics and especially customer service that offer such a model.
