So Second Coil has been destroyed

[Remilia_Nightfall]

That would be a great way to annihilate a playerbase I guess. Hell, people would still be stuck in the first coil, not because it wasn't nerfed, but rather because no one does it anymore.

Hardly. As others have stated, T5 is still a problem for many. This means that there are a lot of people interested in clearing it. And in theory, if you want the playerbase to progress, all you need to do is nerf the final turn of each Coil, NOT all the other turns. Clearing T6-T8 is meaningless, in terms of progression.

''To bad players as well'' insinuating that they are bad. I could reach the final coil if I wanted. If I wanted to spend 15 hours a week learning the fights up to t9, with a static that raids during the night three times a week. Yuk, got the wrong priorities over there.

I am not insinuating that. I am outright stating that. Yours is a typical assumption of someone who needs a reality check, sorry. Our static has been raiding only two days a week, 3 hours at a time. That is 6 hours weekly, which is a pretty "casual" amount if you ask me. Yet we were able to clear all content when it was relevant, even accounting for many nights where our raiders put real life before raiding (and rightly so). Clearing content in FFXIV it's really not a matter of being hardcore. It's just a matter of being willing to put a bit of effort into it.

But really now, people are challenging SE's philisophy that they have put forth since the beginning? All they are doing is giving a steady push to both players that are ahead and those that are behind. The positions are the same, and those who are complaining right now are compaining over nothing.

What can I say. I would just like to think that players would WANT to challenge themselves, in order to become better and better. Being happy for easy stuff is not something that I can even remotely comprehend. That's all.

It's not even about the loot.
It's just about the "***k yeah guys, we did it."
That's not what you say or think when ST is over; you think "Finally this boring stuff is done."
