Is anyone else really disappointed with the nerfs coming in 2.2?

So I'm glad they are easing XIV content in a timely and thought out manner.

EX primals have barely been out 3 months, at this point they might as well just release leviathan x with the buff too, wtf is the point in releasing in unbuffed at all? f**k it, echo buffs should just be on all content the moment its released, if people dont like it they can just click it off. seems legit

The EX primals themselves don't even give gear that is best in slot. You need to kill all 3 per week to get a better version of the zenith weapon which only applies to some weapons. So I don't get the sarcasm.

its not about the loot, its about the experience. if people have a hard time clearing titan x they have no business moving on to harder tiered content. how does this not make sense??? personally, i dont want to raid levi x and coil 6-9 with people that could barely get thru titan hm and coil 1-5

You are talking as if you would go Titan EX with DF... I doubt so!
I guess you have your static, so stay there, nothing changes for you...

Depending on the piece a LOT of primal gear IS BIS. Caster earrings for example. Not going to go through all of them.

Who gives a flying squirrel's ass about gear?! This is about enjoying a challenge. That's the whole damn point! The reason we have this mess is because of all you people going "wah wah it's too haaard I want my geeeear and I want it nooooow!"

Sadly most of the newer generation of MMO players are not concerned about enjoying a challenge. They want gear in the fastest, most efficient way they can possibly get it. It's all about the numbers and nothing else. I don't raid (never really been big on it in any MMO I've played) but I do like a good challenge myself, even if it leaves me wanting to bang my head off a wall lol That said, I also don't mind them nerfing "old" content as it will allow me to enjoy some of it without as much hassle. I do understand why some people are unhappy with this change, though.

EX Primals are going to be as hard next week as they are today. The echo buff won't even exist until mid april, and then it'll be a measly +5% for Extremes. Maybe in a few months, with the full 25% echo buff, the fights might actually be easier for people who are having a hard time now. But don't act like they are being trivialized 3 months after they came out, because they aren't.

if they will be so inconsequential then why add them at all? why not just let people get better over time, if it takes a person 3 months to clear something then they should be a better player at the end of it right? we should encourage people to become players, at this rate there is no motivation for a person to really buckle down and learn mechanics, they can just wait it out

maybe im just oldschool, but i would rather see players get better and help themselves through content that is hard, rather than get buffs scripted into the fight to make it easier for them

you're wrong on this. Only Coil will have a timed buff. Primals will have a "live 3 mins then wipe to get" buff stackable up to 5 times (even Ex)
