We had a conversation about this just the other day... You are not the only one who has noticed or been bothered by it. The fan base in 1.0 were the true FF gamers/fans and I will even go as far to say we are the true hard core players. With the release of 2.0 we picked up an overwhelming number of WoW players as well as recreational players, with that and the game going from more of a hard core state to the "lets make everything easy so those who can't hang can now keep up". If the game was harder like FFXI then it would not be an issue. Bring back the days of running dungeons for 2 weeks just to get one RARE drop and the player base would change drastically.
