    I think Alex is very stress-less now that 4 items drop per floor and is a nice way to boost your Eso.

    This week I was 1: 1/1 2: 1/1 3: 1/2 4: 1/1 when the previous week i think i was 1/7 just on floor 4!

    Also it's easy to gear my retainers to thier teeth once I replace this gear with Eso gear

    There is so much other stuff to do in the game that I don't feel burned out at all . I do the roulette to increase my esoterics for the week, work on Alexander, work on gathering and gathering quests and work on crafting. I've also wanted to get some levelling done on my lowbies too.

    There is a lot to do in the game to take a break from esoterics. I am not burned out at all.

    I've burnt out too. Don't want to grind 2 dungeons just to cap esoterics. Tried Alex on the first week I was able to get i170. Competing against 7 others for a token killed my desire to go in for repeat runs, especially if I have to do this weekly.

    Try doing what I'm aiming for now being to get all DoW and DoM Jobs to lvl 60 which requires farming Fates, Dungeons, and Roulette everyday for the EXP required to reach lvl 60. That something that will burn anyone out.

    I've only kept my self from burning out due to switching between the three and taking 1 to 3 hour breaks and also personal life priority keeps me from playing too much.

    Regardless if Alex gives more drops or not the loot from Alex is not better than the i200 stuff. Having something to do is not gearing all your jobs to i190 from alex and then having them useless by the time you acheive your goal. Thats also one of the reasons for burned out. I barely got to enjoy my law gear that i grinded for 3 jobs then Alex came within like 3 weeks and made all of that very useless. So I have to do the same dungeons again to farm up my weekly currency to do the exact same thing again?
    This is not a double post because its targetting a different topic. It clearly shows I'm not the only one getting burned out with the feeling of repeating a grind that has no variation. Feels like Yoshi Ps dev team release 1 dungeon and think they did everyone a favour we all know that whatever new dungeon they release its gonna get extremly boring after one week. They should have really put out atleast 6-8 EX dungeons to make the ex roulette interesting atleast.

    I was excited for the bigger maps, but they just feel empty. I was hoping for that to give me other things to do outside of dungeons.

    No dungeon caves or dungeon mazes.
    No "Notorious Monsters"(Not meaning Hunts) that give decent and rare loot from that are actually good and unique. (Like Notorius Monsters from FFXI)
    No content for people to do out in the world except FATEs which are so bloody boring and repetitive. We have Treasure Hunts, but those are honestly just miniature FATEs.

    We need some real content out in this world to do outside of FATEs and we need other ways to obtain things outside of raiding and roulettes. This game right now has too much emphasis on queues and it needs more emphasis on the world.

    Whatever content SE rolls out, it will be probably just be more "grind" to you guys.

    You want them to roll out something new, something exciting and original every week. That's not reasonable. Even you know that.

    Even if they roll something like NM, and it rewards this something rare, it'll probably be called a grind by us anyways in the end because you have to camp them out and wait for them to spawn.

    Every new content will be called a "grind" in a week or so. If it's not, it'll probably be "too easy" or "too short" for us.

    We can just complain and complain without seeing the real work behind the scenes that needs time and weeks to be put in something small before they even consider rolling it out.
