Legacy Markets: Total Disaster Area- Call FEMA

[KyahAlmasy]

Care to elaborate? I'm interested in your thoughts on this.

You're wrong because what is and isn't considered "difficult" is subjective. You might have had an easy time fighting Chimera, others are have spent about 2 weeks trying to down it. You might have downed Garuda(Hard) in a couple hours, some are still trying to defeat her. You're wrong because you're generalizing an entire community based solely off your own perspective.

I'm sure there will be elitists who will scoff and say "Pfft, that was easy!" but in all honesty I did have trouble with Hydra, Garuda, and even Titan. It took some concentration, and a considerable amount of devoted time to beat them all. (Especially Titan.) So really, in the end you can't use the hardcore gamer progression as evidence to the ease of a game.

Thanks for elaborating, the original post just wasn't enough to invite further discussion in my opinion.

However the fighting difficulty aside, I do agree with his opinion that gear is easy to obtain; they're handed to you along the way of the story and I've already read a couple of posts about how you don't even have to necessary be decently geared to fate grind to 50 at which point all the money you save along the way is simply funneled into level 50ish equipment. What happens to the market for items level 1-49 then? If there's only a market for high level equipment and there are many high level crafters it's no wonder prices will drop and people will panic about the market. I don't see any foreseeable solution and I share the opinion with some of the other posters here that unless things are changed DoL/DoH are irrelevant to the game. Any changes requiring DoW/M to contribute to the solution though will probably result in some form of massive outcry.
