Just a small-ish..Thing..

What i don't understand is why people are hung up on "needing a static". This is what PUGs are for. Wanna know something? When I was in Tonberry, I cleared Final Coil in a PUG. My friend in DF. There was no need for a static. Just people that knew what they were doing and willing to stick it out. The problem is the community here is too impatient. Self-centered because of how the dev is very much treating us. Spoiled. This doesn't apply to -everyone-, but that's pretty much how things turning out for the most part.

Raiding requires motivation as you are aware. Challenge isn't enough. Especially when I can do something of lower quality and get the same reward. It's human nature. Why do the struggle for one thing when you can choose the path of least resistance and get the same thing? Story. Unique gear. These two things will literally help Savage and the Raid community do a lot better. People will complain. No doubt. But if they really want it. Really cared. They'll do what they can to get it themselves. Whether it is going in right away or waiting to out gear it and see the story later or gear for glamour purposes.

We'll get those Party Finders saying "You must have X gear or no join!"...? We get that already. So how is the getting gear out of raids going to change that save set a standard higher? Back to the first paragraph, the same concept applies...Just make your own party without such restrictions. I know it's a hard concept to get 7 other random people, but gosh...That is what the party finder is for.
