Confessions of a Toxic Elitist

[RiyahArp]

Are you so arrogant as to actually presume yourself the arbiter of how people enjoy content?

I think people who talk about improvement generally don't realize eventually you stop improving. You don't need to raid in this game to know this; just play any competitive game at all, and you find out you reach your skill relatively quickly. Then the desire to improve is a noose around your neck, especially when you have a nice orderly list of all the people that are better than you, and quite a few things you never will do because they aren't for you. And then it changes to status games, to exalting your own ranking, to complaining about the noobs and the weak link in your party when you realize they can't improve, and to your level either.

(i dont mean this for Kaiva, I mean in general.)

As for trying harder...you have the tools in game. you remove deaths, and you memorize the fight to the point where you aren't surprised by the content any more. I don't think in SB the DPS jobs are as opaque or as tightly bound by rotations as in HW, where you get disrupted by a combo, you don't just lose the potency from the third hit, you lose the DOT from it too. A lot of the need for stuff was due to HW, both in complexity of rotation and difficulty of bosses.
