Endsinger Battle Might Need ilvl Sync

Absolutely agree. Yes, casual content is supposed to be easy, but I played this trial within preorder week and even as a filthy casual myself I say it was aligning with other MSQ content you don't do at level cap. It's a shame new people don't get the same experience I did, the fight is amazing and new people deserve to experience it to the fullest.

Would also be in favour for doing this with all end of expansion trials, like asked for in this thread: https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...o-older-trials.
(Especially with Thordan, but this battle deserves a rework in general, but that's a different can of worms.)

Even if the max ilvl is lowered it wont make it into some long and arduous experience. It will maybe add 2 or 3 minutes on to the fight. If you are there for the rewards alone then that's really not much, but it can absolutely make the difference between a good experience and a bad one for new players.

Where am I wrong? As I said in the quote, if there are new players, sync it. otherwise why sync it? If you've seen it before, no need to add more time to the fight. your argument is for new players, cool, I agree with that. my argument is if there are no new players in the party, no need to sync it. rewards are reduced if there are no new players, so it should be faster.

This was going to be my fanfest question for YoshiP. I was even sitting in the front row to ask it, but sadly there was no time at the end of the live letter.

"

Due to the stronger gear available as new content is released, The endsinger can currently be brought to 1-5%hp in the duty finder before the final phase even begins, often dying within the first 10 seconds of the final crescendo, instead of the 3 minutes the phase took during 6.0.

Many first time players are missing all the prayers of the scions, and the epic finale of the first 10 years of final fantasy 14.

Is it possible that endsinger be synced to the same ilvl as the level 90 artifact gear, so that players clearing the content for the first time today with friends can experience the content as it was intended on release?"

It is an absolute tragedy that players completing the fight after 6.2 via duty finder are robbed of the story's final climax. This must be an oversight. I really hope the dev team can look at this and fix it. It's not the same with trusts and is benefitting essentially nobody by the instance being 3 minutes shorter. Even as a player who runs trials roulette daily, I would want to experience this moment again, especially with how long the instance is already.

Big agree here, I'm a relatively new player and thankfully when i first experienced this fight, I was able to see absolutely everything. Knowing that some players are missing out on the full fight sucks, i feel like every Endwalker trial should have some sort of IL restriction or sync people down enough so you can get all the way through every voice line and mechanic without making the fight last too long. I hope they do something about this asap!

Nothing to add! Just posting to add my agreement and support! I really do hope them implement some max ilvl sync. As someone who has played most MSQ content on launch, it’s always sad when I see sprouts trying to enjoy the story and the finale gets ruined by us overgeared vets ; ;

Would be good, in addition to the other final bosses of each expac. It's definitely a shame to skip.

This shouldn't be limited just to some trials, most, if not all content should have reasonable ilvl sync, ideally ilvl of BiS when it was current. I've just got p1n in roulette and poor guy died in less than 4 minutes and we barely charged 1.5 LB. If this is intentional design, then it needs some serious rethinking.

Agree - all the respective trials that are finales for part of their story need this. Sprouts miss out on seeing the full fight and everybody else gets a fight thats way too easy.
Playing Endsinger launch month vs now is wildly different.

Just posting to agree and show support for this. Most of the trials and older raids in the game could do with being looked at and fine-tuned in terms of synced ilvl, difficulty and intended experience.
