You may have suggested something like these things, but I'll bet damn near anything you use all of these things whenever you do these events.

Again, FFXI isn't hard, and anyone that has the gear earned it. It didn't magically show up in their DB's one day, barring bonanza winners.
The fact that you don't understand why doing abyssea without cruor buffs or NNI without embrava says a lot. You could do VW without atmacites but it would just prolong the inevitable which is you will either proc proc proc fanatics fanatics fanatics until its dead or run out of fanatics and die from being one shotted. Why is it wrong to want an event that requires 18 people who actually know how to play their jobs instead of an event which requires PD/Embrava/zergs. Besides I'm asking for 3 modes so gimps can still be gimps, average players can be average but also a system where you can do things like lock out 2 hours/temps and such for a chance to get slightly better rewards.
