    Oh wait... children don't do that. Needing "material" incentive to play a game... pfft.

    MMORPG players these days
    Serious question here... have you been in coil? Hard to tell, but im gonna guess not.

    I'm all for the journey, and for playing to have fun. I participate in a lot of activities in MMOs and really enjoy myself. However, i'm not going to adhere to a somewhat strict 3-4 night per week raid schedule with FC mates to go kill the same bosses over and over for absolutely no reason or reward. All that would be doing is wasting my time.

    Killing a raid boss for the first time is a reward in itself, 100% agree. Clearing a raid boss 25+ times purely for the 'reward of having done it'? Nope sorry, there are other things I would rather do with my time. You can talk all you want with that smug sense of self-entitlement, but MMOs in general are about watching as your character and your guild grows and you take on bigger and badder challenges. The progression is the appeal to most gamers, take that away and really... whats left? A subpar single player game that has other people running around in it.

    I dunno, maybe this game doesn't require a strict 3-4 day raid schedule since you can split your gearing up between raiding and casual content if you so choose?

    Or once you're geared out, get gear for an alt class. You definitely don't have enough myth to go around to be gearing multiple classes in any sort of semi-reasonable time frame. If you don't want to do that, help your FC mates get gear for their main or alt classes. If neither of that appeals to you then perhaps you shouldn't be in an FC with a strict 3-4 day raid schedule since you're just gonna race to the end and get bored.

    I would LOVE to play an alt class. Too bad coil lockouts make it to where I can never play a second class with another group. I find it hard to want to level up and gear up a second class only to never be able to use it for any relevant content. I blame poor game design for that :/

    You should probably level one of those classes to the point of being able to enter Coils in the first place before crying about being restricted.
