That's why i said the percent is inconsequential. The majority of players are casual and rarely raid.

The world has changed for mmorpgs. I love XI, but you don't see many of those old school type games being made anymore. If content is too long lived or too difficult the masses move on.

It's good Yoshi does give skilled raiders content. The other groups needs other content too, endgame dungeons, gentle mode, etc.
