Why does S-E make it so hard for new players to clear old content the intended way?

[Zojha]

Do you think there will ever be steps taken to make old hardcore content relevant again synced?

No. And frankly, I feel that's a good thing, because if people "enjoyed" doing the content synced...they would do it synced.

It's why I did the dungeons for my Anima synced. It was more fun than going PF and doing it unsynced to me. Nothing is stopping people, except the reluctance of others.
