Errrr tou realize people do limit them self in battle contents right?
solo healing, 7 member party, soloing old trial that stick extremely hard to solo, solo potd etc etc and most of them have no rewards...
the current savage is extremely dumped down thats actually not enough challenge in battle contents as it is...
why crafter blalantly refuse it is confusing me, if they really just want challenge... do they really just want challenge?

Solo healing is efficiency on easier fights to allow more dps. It has a purpose. Soloing difficult old trials lets you farm mounts without competition and requires you know your class very well. Solo PotD has a lot of recognition and a title attached.

What Mogbert is saying is more like "take half the abilities off your hotbar and see if you can run dungeons". This isn't challenging, because you're dumbing your class down to less buttons, it's restricting. The interesting part about crafting, like battle classes, is seeing what you can do and how far you can go with your toolkit. Only nothing requires your full toolkit.
