It's very unfair for this game to use visuals on a monitor for a complete game experience, this is not catering to the blind population making the game mostly unplayable by them. This is not OK Squeenix.

seriously don't bother explaining the mechanic to me, its sometimes like you're speaking another language to me when talking about math, i simply don't get it, at all... for those saying to write down the answers or such, it would still take me longer then 10 seconds to refer to the sheet and then do the thing in game, like this sorta mechanic i could understand being in savage but not in a 24 player raid
seriously try living in the shoes of someone with a learning disability, try it, try sacraficing you normally would use to play the game, like one of your hands or get reshade and play with dof always on, try avoid using number keys entirely and just use your mouse clicker for casting and such, this is basically the difficulty of having a learning disability, it makes simple things like multiplications and division difficult
like i don't think you guys get it, its not simple for me and those who have trouble with math in general or remembering numbers... if the mechanic doesn't change in some way or isn't removed i simply will ignore the mechanic and not care and i am sure i'm not the only one who will have that mentallity.. if this game gets more mechanics like in the future i will just stop playing all together

I can understand that it would be disheartening for a few because they would find the mechanic stressful. Inevitably, though it is simple math, everyone thinks differently and some take longer to calculate these sorts of things. However, the truth of the matter is that a majority are able and this is completely optional content. Nothing is really necessary from this raid; it's side content for people who may enjoy it or are too impatient to grind for mendacity tomes, as I understand. If you aren't a fan of it, then you don't have to run it. I personally love the mechanic; I think its a fun to have to pause and quickly think out a small problem in the middle of the fight.
Other solution: Learn when the best time to accept a raise is. I suggest accepting a raise after the boss casts Incinerate. (This is also the ideal time to use Healer LB3.)
then just get ready to die and carry one, after the two computations there is still things to do after that and since it's not something you can't anything about, just carry on and get ready for the next mechanics. Don't take things for everyone else if it's not something you can't do, after all there are others thing you can, right?
for "its optional" yes, playing the game itself is optional, but if i do want to play it and i do want the upgrade tokens, i have to do this
for "its not something you can do anything about" (i rephrased this because it didn't look right to me) yeah there is, i can bring notice about it on the forums and maybe grab SE's attention to a potential problem for future content, you have to speak up if you want change and thats what i am doing, and don't americans say i have the freedom of speech? let me speak
for "tell the party you have a disability and you might need shielding for the mechanic" thats probably the best idea i've seen yet, i'll do that but i best make a macro so i don't have to type it everytime, thanks for a solid suggestion, but i'm still going to carry on on the forums for days, this really needs to be brought to SE's attention so they don't turn their game into a educational game
