Really hope they don't nerf Steps too hard. They really need to put their foot down sooner or later and make the Duty Finder dependent masses fly the nest. Really they should just remove it from the Duty Finder and force players on the same server to interact; Duty Finder is the subtle teat that many players need to be weaned off, seeing as they're at 50 but still absolutely terrible at the game...
Yes. Genius. Put there foot down and drive away players. That's going to be good for the game. (Note: I'm being sarcastic)

I think a better idea would be to start introducing mechanic changes like we see in Steps of Faith more slowly. Steps of Faith is a rather large departure from what people are used to. I think they should have introduced environmental mechanics incrementally over a longer time before making a fight so environmental mechanic intensive.

Even if they don't nerf it, in 3.0 you'll see the mechanics become sidelined anyway cause as 50+ characters reach higher gear levels the dps requirements will reach the point where the cannons and Dragonslayers won't be needed to dps him down in time.
