    You're joking, right? There is absolutely nothing positive about that post at all. It's bitter, negative, and completely delivered through clenched teeth.

    When I checked your character, there are no signs of you doing Coil, hence your comment. My point was: are the nerfs necessary when Coil is being nerfed already due to people being close to full i90 gear (myth gear). It could still be impossible because MMO's have lots of people who can't communicate or aren't the perseverance type, so I do understand SE's point of view <---. I'm all for the two modes: normal and hard or w/e it has to be called.
    Well I did start this game 3 months after you Game Winner, so yeah I only did Turn 1 and Turn 2 last night after finding a guild I meshed with. I have no idea why you'd try to progression shame someone you have a 3 month lead on but whatever.

    Look I don't agree completely with the nerf, but I disagree with people who are mad about the nerf because they feel their work is being invalidated. If the only thing that gives raiding value to you is doing something other people can't do and getting trinkets, then yeah you're probably doing it for the wrong reasons. Splitting it into two modes is just pointless, they did that in World of Warcraft and it has all the same negative impacts of nerfing content, you've got less people who need to go through guilds to raid.

    There definitely is a negative impact to nerfing content and not leaving a tiered system in place, but everyone knew this was coming. To see all this screaming about how 'my shinies lost their luster' is just disheartening. I'm willing to wait until we see the nerf, for all we know it could be a very small nerf since the content doesn't seem wildly overtuned or anything like that. Maybe the soft nerf of ilvl 100 gear would have been enough on it's own maybe it wouldn't, but I'm sure not going to scream bloody murder over a nerf that not only was obvious but is basically the industry standard.

    No, I'm not. You just jumped straight to negative conclusions when the term "handicapped" was mentioned. Now please stop QQing without justifiable foundation.
