Have you considered this option: live without the item you want? I know that nowadays the sense of entitlement is pretty strong. "Shiny thing exists. I want shiny thing. Give me shiny thing! It is my right!", but SE gave these fights tiered difficulty for a reason.

Is there any MMORPG anywhere that just lets you have all the best stuff without effort? Or should you maybe play a linear solo offline game?
What you saying they should keep it like that while players are declining, With out players it become a solo play just like any other mmo out there.
