Thank you for increased difficulty

While I agree with your general opinion, overall with the posts you've made the last page or so, this is slightly discouraging because it's as if you're saying some of us aren't trying hard enough. Can only speak from personal experience at this point, but I myself am trying my damndest. While I know I am not one of those players with 3 casts per minute, sometimes I do have panic moments when something catches me off guard.

By your post, players like me should be kicked. While not exactly wrong, it's disheartening to say the least.

My issue is with people wanting to nerf a fight that might occasionally cause a wipe because that's icky and mean to the people that just want to play a visual novel. You, personally, don't seem to have this issue-- and instead, you've tried to go out of your way to improve (or you appear to; forum posting doesn't go very far). As I mentioned to you before, find someone that can help guide you out of the mistakes you're making, or toss me a tell if you ever find yourself on the best server (it's Goblin obv).

As for kicking? In extreme cases, if a single person is holding the rest of the party back? Absolutely boot. Boot boot boot.

At one point, I would have shared the same sentiments. Now? I dunno. I appreciate the difficulty increase, nonetheless lately. I don't feel that anything in SB should be nerfed (save for a needed QoL improvement that is Starboard/Larboard...but is that really a nerf?).
