Anima weapons - Last step

[Shurati]

If I understand that stuff right, there are 3 options:

1st, you are a raider. You will need a good weapon, but you also can get a weapon from a raid.

2nd, you want the Anima and have no problem with grinding for it.

3rd, you are a casual. You don't want to waste your time on the Anima weapon. Well, you don't have to, right? If you are a casual, a ilvl180 or ilvl190 weapon should be enough, if you ask me.

I'm not a hardcore raider, but I do raids with friends sometimes. Even that is possible with my ilvl 180.

Nobody forces you to get Anima.

The overall problem in the design as there is a HUGE difference between a fun somewhat grindy quest working towards an awesome goal, and an insane months upon months of grinding the same damn thing over and over and over again, only to see only the slightest margin of progress each day.

This. Plus honestly, that's the core design of the entire game.
