Are you dragging Exfaust dead center for Black Holes? A lot of groups don't, but it makes things easier uptime wise. If your melee don't have Arm's Length as a role action, tell them to take it so they can cheese Vacuum Wave. Every little bit helps at those percentages.

I am a firm believer people suck at this game because it hand holds you endlessly. There is no incentive to improve. If we had a proper difficulty curve throughout all content, this wouldn't be nearly the same issue. Frankly speaking, normal mode shouldn't be an absolute joke. This way players who cannot commit or simply aren't interested in a harder challenge, still have something to work towards. Savage, meanwhile, shouldn't be entirely inaccessible. Gordias did no one any favours. Midas, on the other hand, was a solid tier that with some mild tweaks, particularly to A6, could have easily remained the de factor Savage.

All that being said, XIV needs more content in general. Everything being made easier only means we have far less to do long term. While I am not bored per se, it's more due to social interactions than content.
