Take it easy on the Nerfing :/

Sadly, nerfs are inevitable with the game model that SE have chosen. The entire treadmill is one of planned obsolesce, and until SE can break that cycle we'll continue to see older content nerfed heavily and made irrelevant. The sad part is that this is not something that can be maintained, and if SE don't find a way off that treadmill they could ultimately make the entire game obsolete.

It is funny you refer to Steps of Faith as "older content" ^^

Be serious guy´s, get your Copy of any Single Player Game ever, say DMC... you fight 20+ Hours mastering each and every button, Head up to the Last Bossfight, and that guy falls apart with a combo counter not even reached a 10 Hits....

My quoted post wasn't solely about Steps of Faith, more that the nerf which hit the fight is a result of their current game model. With old content becoming obsolete rather quickly, the emphasis seems to be on getting all players to the same level. That means making the story content as streamlined as possible as well, so that when Heavensward is released people can access the expansion quickly.

When everything becomes a fast-track to the endgame, it's not hard to see why even recent content is being hit by the nerf bat to keep players from being to far behind.
