The problem with allowing Turn 2 Rage strat

Oh please there are plenty of crazy fights in this game that will push everyone (Ultima and Titan HM come to mind). To have one fight where the healers can just stand there and spam Medica or whatever, who cares, its one fight.

The only people upset about this are the selfish elitists that want good gear for themselves. Look, T2 is extremely easy, not hard at all. If people that are lesser geared want to do this for some loot that you possibly have and think you busted your ass for(which you haven't cuz nothing in this game requires busting ass).

This game is easy, none of your achievements make you look cool or superior. None. All ilvl90 even means is that you play more often and got to rack up more myth tomes/do more coils. Get over yourselves, kindly stfu and let people play however the hell they want as long as they're not breaking the ToA.

You're making a lot of assumptions.

I'd say people are a little thrown off base by the fact that "Enrage" doesn't mean "auto death" like it usually does.

I'm fine with it not meaning auto death. I just kind of wish it kept using its abilities, because its the only enrage I've heard of where the boss literally stops using other abilities.

So the people since launch who struggled to figure out mechanics don't deserve some sort of reward, but rather are just met with under-geared, under-skilled players who because they lack the skill weasel around mechanics? You fail to see the bigger picture here and it's quite funny that you throw around the label of "elitist". That term is becoming more of a fail safe for mad kids who are met with a little opposition. And if T2 is extremely easy to do, please explain to me why the majority of people who do T1-T2 each week run enrage method and a good chunk of those people have never actually seen, dealt or succeeded in killing ADS w/ mechanics? Poor play breeds your so called "elitist" and allowing such an easy method of killing end-game content promotes poor play. GF :3.

Outside of personal satisfaction? No, no they don't.

I dunno how on earth you can think that just because X group beat a fight first they get to demand everyone fight that boss their way.

Why are people still beating a dead horse lol

Because they want to be right, no matter the cost.
That said, there isn't any horse left to beat.

Which dawns the question again: Why are there mechanics to T2 at all? Individual node mechanics, sure, but don't make them effect the mechanics of the boss. I'm done with worrying about the enrage method, it's been said time and time again that it isn't going to change, so now I'm just playing devil's advocate. But the fact that the majority of the opposition to the original post completely dismisses the effort put into the fight by those before them and in most cases helped those too who have done it correctly (non-enrage method) learn the fight, screaming your way or the highway is silly. Also, I said nothing about any demands. Different strategies to the mechanics, sure. Taking them out completely is what is in question.

Not sure about you, but I quit for at least 3 weeks after launch. I then came back and learned mechanics of fights by watching a youtube video. If by "struggle" you mean not taking advantage of guides, then sure yeah lots of people "struggled".
