DPS obsession in farm groups

[Ghishlain]

On a side note-- I find it funny when ppl complain about encounters/raids being too easy but they are usually the first ones to try to find exploits or ways skip/cheese mechanics somehow to make another encounter easier.

I share a sentiment of laughter (though my reaction is more like *Rolls eyes*) when I hear things are too easy as well. I would like to know how many people that complain about things "being too easy" actually try to do anything to challenge themselves like low manning an EX Primal or running content with min ilvl sync on.

Challenge can be self-imposed. S-E doesn't need to do anything to make things challenging when there are perfectly good ways to challenge oneself or a group of players if they can. If you're looking for a reward for challenging content in a certain way - that reward is your accomplishment doing something most people aren't able to do.

[Edit] I'm not going to touch too much about "skiping" or "cheesing" mechanics this particular raid tier. It almost feels intentionally designed in some respects as a means of rewarding higher levels of thoughtful and optimizing play.

Though I personally dislike any mechanic that can be cheesed/skip by sacrificing a player to it *Glares at A4S and A8S*
