You're right, but it's awesome for watching Black Mirror episodes.

the only reason you even could get started raiding was the constant easing of difficulty that ended in Creator. You talk this stuff about things being hard, well if it had been hard when you did it, you wouldn't even be here raiding; you wouldn't have been able to find a static to start. No one would have taken a chance on you then, just like it happened with gordias and midas. But there's always the tendency for people to pull up the ladders behind them.
There's nothing they can do to make them harder that you don't see in ex primals or savage; ignoring boss mechanics would one shot you or set you up for a quick one shot, and there'd be a hard enrage. Otherwise its still just as semi-afkable.Quote:
Why do people always jump to “Savage-level difficulty dungeons” whenever anyone suggests to make them slightly harder? No one has ever suggested dungeons be on a Savage-level. They just want them to not be something you can semi-AFK in the middle of and still clear.
I spilled some water during a dungeon run recently so I had to drop everything mid fight to go clean it up. By the time I got back I expected my character to be dead - but that wasn't the case. Literally every mechanic on the last boss of Skalla hit my character and the healer simply powered through. I apologised for it though they actually thanked me by saying it was the first exciting thing they'd seen in a roulette all week. :p
Glad he confirmed they will not be doing SCH fairy glamours, so people can now stop from making threads about it on a weekly basis.
Buying just any old PC and complaining you cannot game well or at all on it is like buying a toaster and complaining you cannot bake a pizza in it.
My only argument was that PC are not technically limited. If you buy one that is that does not mean that the PC are limited, its just that you made a bad purchase. Buy something made for what you intend to use it for. And a gaming PC, or even a PC capable of decent gaming, is not necessarily as expensive as that meme wants you to believe. Also, very few PC have soldered in components outside Apple products since PC are made to be upgradable or at least to allow replacement parts.
No matter what excuses you want to make, there is absolutely no way of getting around console limitations, no matter your argument. You literally just hit a wall with no way to get around it.
I'm curious how the new housing will work.
I'm not trying to deny console limitations. I know they exist. And most all-in-ones I've seen are soldered in components whether from Apple or otherwise. I don't think the Mac Pros (the tower units) are though. I'm saying low-end PCs which a lot of people have are ALSO limitations. And consumers will complain (general consumers). I'm fine, I'm upgrading my 760 (which isn't holding me back in any way as far as FFXIV goes) to a 1080 later on in the year, and looking at getting a new laptop with an i7, 8GB+ RAM, and a GTX 1060. But your general consumer? They will complain, they don't know. And no amount of educating seems to work. So it's not technically limited, but business-wise it's limited. As far as SE are concerned, they're one of the same.
That is absolute nonsense. Stop speaking for me. You are not me nor do you have any idea of what I may or may not have done. Plenty of raid groups came together during Midas and Gordias just like upstart ones happened with Ultimate. If you believe everyone progging Ultimate now has full oranges, you have no idea what you're talking. Although, that much is already evident. What caused struggles with statics more than anything was the necessity of being on the same server—something only rectified when Creator released. Had cross-world PF be a thing earlier, Gilgamesh never would have become the raid server.
Weeping City, Pharos Sirius, The Vault, Dun Scaith, Final Steps of Faith, Titan Hard, Ifrit Hard and Chrysalis would all like a word with you. None of them were Savage levels yet didn't allow you to sem-afk. In fact, I had the most fun healing Kugane Castle the other week when our tank decided to purposely DC and my friend, on Bard, tanked Yojimbo. For once, I actually had to weave between healing and DPSing since she just didn't have the HP or CDs to where I could put Regen on her and spam Stone IV. Actually having to heal a dungeon boss. What a novel concept.Quote:

What I find particularly ironic is how adamant you were Ultimate shouldn't exist and made every effort to complain about it yet now you're chastising raiders for complaining. Pot meet kettle much?
The devs admitted one reason they've dropped a second dungeon from odd numbered patches is due to lackluster interest. Maybe, just maybe. That lack of interest stems from the fact dungeons scarcely require a pulse and have followed the precise same formula for four years.
