Ready for Nier Dark Apocalypse?

[ICountFrom0]

Given that right now it would be impossible to practice the Ivalace raids without brining your own group of 24 people together, I'd say no.

We are not ready.

With enough people stripping ilvl to end up in crystal tower, and leaving if it ends up at world of darkness, rather then learning any sort of mechanic, I'd say no.

We are not ready.

With the word "mechanic" treated as a curse word, we are nowhere NEIR ready.

Any word if we are getting the Nier outfits from the raid or mounts.

I'm sad to see so many people dissapointed in the raid, but you guys do you. I really hope they do keep adding permanent collab content, but I can understand not wanting it to be as major as the 24 man raid series of an expansion.

Personally I'm incredibly hyped. The Weight of the World - Prelude tune had me so excited and I love doing new 24s.

When people NEED to they will typically rise to the occasion in the name of progression. I've seen this time and time again. Weeping City's Ozma was a good example. Were there some wipes? You betcha. Are there still wipes? Also you betcha. But eventually the content does get cleared. It also happened with Orbonne and it will happen again with the new raid. It might be ugly for a time but people will manage somehow. They always do. Well, almost always.

"What happened with Orbonne" You mean people taking off items to avoid ending up in it ever? People using a mod to be able to see what they are qued for, so they don't end up there ever? People leaving as soon as they arrive, so they don't have to do it, ever?

People did Orbonne when it was current for gear and upgrade tokens. They'll do the same now. Just get in on Tuesday right after the weekly reset or your queue times are gonna suck.

There are mountains upon mountains of analytical data that proves this demonstrably false. More often than not, when an average player is presented with an obstacle they struggle with, they either a) hope others will carry them or b) give up entirely.

Why do you think, outside of Savage and Ultimate, this game is ridiculously easy?

I'm talking about when Orbonne was first released and the months that followed. I am NOT talking about Shadowbringers, which was when this became more of a thing.

Can I see your mountains upon mountains of analytical data? Because what I've seen is people clearing harder bosses in 24 man raids when they need to.
