    The zone seems a bit more lively due to the train making a slight comeback, but I imagine a lot of people are probably going to get bored again once they realize that the light grind is still ridiculous after AFKing their ways to 35.

    I did around 10 NMs in a single session and scarcely got a single bar from it.

    Meanwhile a single NM at 24 gets me 50-60% of a level bar.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    Honestly the leveling to 35 part is the annoying part to me. Mindlessly grinding mobs at level cap when you have more travel options, a mount, free reign to not get one shot by 90% of the mobs in there makes the experience less annoying.

    The light step has always been grindy though, granted there are barely any choices this time but a lot of people just spammed one thing repeatedly that might as well have been a hp sponge anyway. (like 500 Garuda HM for Zodiac, or facerolling A1S for anima).
