And I take it you did all 200 floors then?

A full gearset is relatively easy to replace, the quicker turnover allows players to skip steps if they are behind, and the regular rewards keeps more people engaged.

As for PotD, what are you talking about?

I think that's part of the problem. No1 bothers to really do anything once the realization sets in that the next raid tier's normal mode will give higher lvl gear than this raid tier's savage mode. And why bother playing at all when you know you can come back in 6 months or whenever really and be given a full set of gear with little to no effort. It just makes the playerbase lethargic as hell, lots of people just start logging in less and less until they eventually just find another game that is more compelling to them.

PotD requires no skill or strategy until floor what? 150? To me that's the opposite of engaging content. There was little to no reason to even go past floor 100 because the weapons were gotten from beating floors 50-100 over and over. The dev team as a whole needs to re-evaluate what direction they want to take this game imo.

Depends on what you want from a mmo. Personally I find a lot of what I love about XIV is simply absent in WoW.

By the way having loads of raid difficulties makes content get old very fast. I got very sick of doing several incarnations of the same bosses. Two difficulties is enough.

I find two difficulties just fine too, even if one is just basically LFR difficulty, but then they really should have more raids also and they just don't. Less bosses too.

I'm still with FFXIV because i'm entirely burned out on WoW and imo there's a better community here, but the content train really needs to get going or people will just run out of things to keep them interested sooner or later.

Ultimate Bahamut will not fill that role due to the limited amount of people that will even get to fight him at all, and that's a big problem. Mark my words you will see threads about the lack of content soon once more people realize that

We already saw the pony tail hairstyle on a female Miqote, so I think both are uni-sex.

I cant stand when people go and dig up peoples lodestones like literally what does their achievements have to do with anything. If a person joined today and got to 70 , then what they have a few limited options, should they go curb stump some old ex primals just for the achivement, should they go do binding coil unsync just for the achivement. Like get out of here with that new patch eqauls all the other content is either not done , or is ran unsync which is a totally garbage way of doing content anyway. So I dont understand what you figured you where showing by posting his stuff. Doesnt change the fact that this patch is still pretty thin regardless of their old achievements.
