"So, with the last patch, we didn't really increase the NM spawn rate"

The problem is the ffxiv combat system isn't made to do hours of grinding. It's to rigid for that and to slow.
For this combat system to shine you need to be dodging mechanics while doing rotations.
Content like anemos or pagos will never be really good content because of this. If this was a hack and slash game i would have no issue grinding in there for hours. But it's not. You just end up standing there and either aoe or do a simple rotation on a mob that doesn't do anything to you.

Reminder that Eureka was one of the main selling points of Stormblood back in the first reveal at fan fest. Lol
