This game is far to difficult.

I actually do not mind the challenging content, I respect and admire our developers. What ruins it (and this is mostly beyond SE's control) are the players who behave so ridiculously to it, Ragequit, insult you, call you names.

I've even heard talk of some servers having blacklist websites or things in social media to post your name if you mess up. TBH, SE should keep the challenging content, but triple the penalties for duty abandonment and make said penalties apply to Party Finder formed PT's.

In other words, raqequit and you get a 48 hr Debuff barring you from a dungeon.

I strongly agree that they need to cater to casual players more. They did mention of easing instant kill mechanics, but well, not fast enough! While it's okay to expect healthy 10 and 20 year olds to learn fight mechanics down to pixels and milliseconds. It's not so much when talking about older, very young or ill individuals who still want to enjoy the game. Seriously, if they can pull off catering to these people, they'll gain quite some fame.

Anyway, they should have an easy mode of all trial and raid dungeons. The reward should be just tomestones of mythology and soldiery. Furthermore, they should be released the same time as new releases to allow participation by everyone. If they really want to help the casual playerbase, just make the easy trials/ raids use the exact movepool and the exact rhythm as their regular counterparts but all the mechanics deal a fraction of the damage. This can serve as a practice encounter for those wanting to beat the regular versions. Otherwise, it's for the casual player to enjoy the scenery and story; instead of, you know, through a random group's clear on youtube.

Taking T5 for example:
Fireball - 16000 > 6000
Twisters - infinity > 3000
Caber toss - infinity > 3000 and select new target
Divebomb - 3000 + 25y knockback > 1500 + 6y knockback

As a casual I can honestly say they cater to that crowd more than enough. But anyway, an "LFR" style similar to WoW minus the loot wouldn't be a bad idea, if this is what you're getting at. On the other hand, people can always wait till they nerf it a bit more or just keep trying.

Why can we not have two tiers of raids like WoW? Instead of making an even harder mode of Coil that nobody will be able to do, when its already extremely challenging, make an easy mode. There are people just looking to clear the content who don't care about loot. Remove the high end rewards for easy and let players choose which raiding style is better for them. Only catering to hardcore players is only going to hurt the game in the end.

And if theirs people who can't clear the easy version? Should their be an even easier versio added then. and a further version where the mobs commit suicide when you eanter the dungeon because someone can't clear the previous easy version either?

When would it stop?

Instead of "joining countless parties" Why not make your own and filter out the bad players until you have a kill team. Stop trying to get SE to "fix" things you can do yourself

Almost there..... almost there...

What? Did I read that right? No...(/schocked)

Serious? Too difficult? LoL even Super Mario Bros. Is harder than FF14ARR.

I'm not an hardcore gamer, nor am I an elitist but making the game easier is a no go for me.
It's good as it is atm, you can have your share of the fun either the hard or easy way.

So let's leave it at that please.

There's only one C in shocked XD

But I get what you mean far to difficult XD Not far too difficult....

Also use of should of instead of should have. Ur. U. *shudders* But meh! I don't always edit and correct typos either :P

That's how shocked he was :O

[Jon_00]

In my honest opinion, I don't think this game is too difficult. Most of the encounters in this game require two things: The first being communication, and the second being the guarantee everyone knows what particular role they should be fulfilling during any boss fight.

Both of these can be solved by being in a static. You really need a static in MMOs, without the prior organisation you're bound to find it difficult.

I'm still stuck on Garuda EX but It can take mechanics and a good group, you just have to find a group that knows what they are doing. It's not that hard its doable
