Things that need to change for the better

I don't get it then. You say you wanted challenging content, why are you complaining. The dungeons are hard, but not impossible, not a by a long shot. The final boss was defeated in under 48 hours by a number of linkshells. If anything, it's not hard enough.

not hard enough? Are you crazy? I mean, I get that you're an elitist and all, but come on. With the current system, the very basic and very gimped AA system, the horrible stat system and the lack of a decent ENM calculation system, this fight is not exactly a walk in the park and it shouldn't be, true, but it definitely shouldn't be harder than say...Kirin...or..hell, aside from PW and AV, I can't really think of a fight in FFXI that was harder than this crap...well maybe Archangels with a bunch of scrubs that didn't know how to kite...but seriously. How the hell do I avoid getting AoE spammed in the face? No where in that room is safe -.-

Is the "shouldn't" a typo or is that for real? You can call me elitist all you want, though I don't believe I am one. Only reason I'm getting upset is because you're asking SE to dumb down the first bit of REAL content we've gotten in 10 months since release. It's only been what, 3 days since 1.18 released? Don't expect everyone to beat all the content already, it's supposed to last us till 1.19 after all.

the "didn't" is for real, read it again. And I know, not everyone is supposed to have beaten it already, but I honestly can't see how you can prevent the abuse of AoEs every 5 seconds or at least stay alive. Ok, Ogre starts his AoE BS...I move out of range. I begin casting cure 3 on the tank, it goes off. Ogre turns to me and AoEs. I die. Take 2, same thing, only I let the THM use Sac 2 while I nuke. THM gets one shotted. Suddenly, I die from a ghost AoE. wtf?
