    You said that those using secret ninja magic were preventing SE from "making it easier". This is BS, SE won't be making it "easier", they don't want it "easier", they want you to still be working on your gear in 2014.

    "If those cheaters didn't get their reward, then SE would reevaluate the situation and give us non-cheaters the reward instead" is what your argument boils down to. We know from the past that this is BS, SE won't make this "easier" until they have new content to attract you with. Looking at the stats of the gear involved, it's obvious that SE intended NNI gear to be super-restricted in availability.

    Doing damage is for WAR's, DRK is about soloing 75 content yo.....

I know I'm not imagining this because I scrolled up and saw it because my weaponskills weren't working.
    Not to bash you, but did you care to take screenshot?

    Let me rephrase what I think is being said. If you look at data currently, you will see alot of people win this event. If you look at data without cheaters, very few people are actually completeing the event. In other words SE can not get accurate data on success rates for this event due to cheaters so even if the need to make it easier is great enough they would do it they can not see it because they are blinded by the cheaters making the win rate 50 times higher than it should be.

    For example, if 1 in 100 runs are wins, and their goal is 1 in 10 runs, they are going to be bad, and SE would change it. But because of cheaters the win rate is at 1 in 20 so far as SE can see, and thats not to big of a jump in their eyes, so they don't mind, and leave it be. Now if they remove the cheaters or the ability to cheat then get accurate data based on the win rates without the tainted win/loss ratio they can assume if the event is working properly or not, and correct it accordingly.

    Really, isn't this what they kinda did with Walk of Echoes? Nobody doing the event, they kept making adjustments, and now more people do. If NIU was dead within the first week, I think more than just a stopper would have been implemented.

    Or they may do nothing at all considering how good the gear is and their normal mentality towards player acquisition, getting floor 100 was probably meant to be a 1/100 occurrence (or at least having enough time to win at floor 100) i still subscribe to the evil genie theory when it comes to anything FFXI related and SE.

    I only base that on how many other other things that need to be or very well ought to be adjusted and are still ignored in favor of balance or w/e made up limitations they choose for excuses, example macros: why? because thats why. my least favorite answer of any reasoning... because...? because F U thats why.

    Are you sure one of them wasn't a pathos wearing off from the previous floor?

    You pretty much only gleened what applied to your reasoning from what I said. The fact of the matter doesn't change when you have cheaters supplying inaccurate data about success rate compared to projected success rates or intended success rates. They have made adjustments after the fact on several events and are still making adjustments (this update for example altered difficulty of legion by restricting roam area of mobs creating a safe zone and the ability to re-enter zone if ejected fo all members ko). Thus I do not buy your powdered reasoning as fact given the actual fact so many have only completed their gear through illegitimate means. I can attest to the fact that reaching floor 80 is far more likely and a more timely path to the gear, but reaching 100 is still possible giving you instantly a gear of choice and up to 3 random gears when won.

    I forsee the "you're profile says lvl 1, why should I believe you" card coming up, and also I'll tell you now that arguing with saveal is like telling a brick wall it is actually drywall. By this I mean it is rather pointless to prove your view as his is set in stone and immovable no matter the reasoning provided. Not saying I disagree with what you say, just letting you know that Saveal is more a waste of effort to argue with than it is worth.
