    OP is asking for a QoL change. Should SE revert the hundreds if not thousands of meaningful QoL updates the game has received because things were one way at one time?

    Did what in A6S? The overall length of the floor was about the same as any other duty. If you wipe 9 minutes into a 10 minute EX or normal trial, you have to start from scratch just the same.

    There were two complaints about UCoB: Nael's lines and the fight being a bit lengthy. Ultima was made a few minutes shorter as a result.

    From some of the comments, you'd think it was a common thing to leave the instance and start over if you wiped on Neo or Godka. Like anyone looking to do higher floors would decline the option to start higher than 21 if the choice was given.

    Yo are people complaining about the core fundamentals of what makes a deep dungeon a deep dungeon. That's adorable.

    Punishing and challenging are not necessarily mutually exclusive. By allowing people to start at 61, you effectively turn the higher floors into a two hour challenge at most. Therefore, it becomes considerably less impactful if mistakes cause wipes. My group died earlier this week at floor 90. Had we been able to begin again at floor 61. I wouldn't have even cared since it takes no time whatsoever to climb back up and try again. Dropping down to floor 21, on the other hand, makes failure a far greater risk.

    Starting floors 61+ with zero pomenders wouldn't mean much since you could stock up on them between 61-80. Working on my third full clear; six attempt overall, I can attest you get pomenders in abundance. Half the time, we're speeding through and ignoring them since we stocked up earlier. What the OP's proposing isn't a QoL change but a straight nerf to arguably the only somewhat challenging four man content this game offers.

    Forced you to clear all four mini-bosses in a single, gauntlet style setup.

    And there were complaints regarding PotD which HoH addressed. Furthermore, Ultima may have a shorter length but the mechanics are significantly faster and arguably move involved. So it's a wash.

    Unfortunately, nothing can really be done to mitigate this. If they allowed you a way to recover your file, people would exploit if their run was about to go poorly in hopes of a do over. That being said, I feel a "second chance" system; essentially letting you die once, wouldn't ruin the challenge.

    I say add more floors past 100 and keep it as it is, theres my 2 cents.

    Oh and thank you for giving me more things to do socially in this game other than the norm

    Dunno if it has been mentioned, but it'd be nice if they made it so you cannot use another Intuition if one is already in use. When you are farming for an item it is frustrating when someone in group wastes them.

    No, its mostly just been people defending content with a 5+hr clear time.

    Haven't you been complaining how the game has no content yet now you want something that requires more than a lunch break's equivalent to take even less time.

    God forbid everything doesn't roll over in twenty minutes or less...

    The past months you've been lamenting the lack of long lasting content in the game, this feels a bit a contraddiction to me

    There is a difference between difficult content and excessively time consuming content. I've already cleared HoH twice.... it could use to be harder actually. My issue is the amount of time it takes to go from 21-71 (which is face roll easy) just to get to the enjoyable part. The (21-71) portion of each clear is mind numbly boring and needlessly time consuming. Unless you are running with a static (which is the very reason I don't do savage) you need to run 21-99 in one sitting. I didn't start this thread change anyone's mind.... it my feedback regarding content which is otherwise fun (from 71-99)
