    Not to be a jerk but can't you see why some people have an issue with this? Assuming all content is made to be accessed by all players, why create a situation wherein you're falling back on CoP original strategies? My gripe with CoP was if you didn't have the relevant jobs you couldn't go. And as always, woe betide you if you're hoping people who already have their rings are going to come back and do something that's actually challenging again. It's why I was so happy when they originally dropped the caps on CoP, content that was fun to do and I could do it on my own time.

    With this cap, I can't help but feel up against the clock. Look back through this thread and you'll see all kinds of posts saying you can do it with anything but you'll find a great number more that say you're best shot is to use xyz jobs. The longer it takes for me to do this, the less people im going to be able to find to help. And frankly I don't feel like levelling xy or z to get through. If I'd wanted to do that job, I'd already be sitting at 99 laughing.

    Im not saying I hate difficult content. But when its something mandatory like a level cap, why should it be so tricky for players based on job choice?

    This can be applied to any major fight...CoP is just one that comes to mind first because it was the first one I started on that really gave me any trouble (for the most part, ZM was a joke with my LS at the time...I basically just tagged along on BLM to fill in specific roles they needed). Pick your most annoying boss fight....be that something in TAU, wotG, a certain BCNM, ENM....whatever the case may be, think about what you did to finally beat that @#$@#$.

    The point is, everyone needs to approach this fight just like every other pain in the @$$ fight we had in the past. It's like everyone has been spoiled by the easy button over the past year and has forgotten what it is like to actually play the game with any common sense.
