Who Thought Adding Difficulty Levels To Instanced Quests Was A Good Idea?

[Berethos]

That has to be one of the dumbest ideas ever because it basically gives a free pass, especially for new players who were just given an excuse to not make an effort in playing the game. If someone from Square Enix came up with this idea, they need to be fired.

Would you like to know how the current system works?

Current system - if you fail a few times, it gives you the Echo buff. You don't have a choice and the game nerfs the fight for you automatically.

New system - if you fail, you can choose whether or not you get the easier version or continue to try and beat it at its intended difficulty.

You're literally whining over being given the choice of whether the instanced battle will be nerfed or not, when currently you are not given that choice.

I thought that this was just for NG+ and not for anything new/will be current. .

It will show up if you fail an instanced quest battle (until you log out, then it resets to default for the first attempt). It's basically the current system, but with the ability to dictate when and if the instanced battle gets made easier, whereas right now you don't really have control over that (I'm not actually sure if you can click off the buff it gives when you fail a fight a few times, in which case this new system is more about giving explicit control over when/if the Echo buff is given).
