Locking dyable artifact gear behind a extreme trial, good idea?

[Alleo]

This was a bit my point. SE clearly think it is, hence this content.

We dont know what SE thinks. It could also be that they have created that trial, had no time to create new gear or a mount for it and just thought: Well lets put artifact gear as dyeable behind it..the devs are not always making good choices. If they had wanted this to be the casual part why not give them an increase in ilvl?

You don't *need* a guide, nor do you need a preformed party. You just need time and a good attitude. You don't even need to be fantastic at your class most of the time. Observe what happens and either react to it or talk over what happened with your party members if you wipe/die. That's really all it takes to learn a fight. By level 80 you should have a grasp of the mechanics that fights throw at you. EX fights usually introduce maybe 1-2 things you've never seen before.

Basically, make/round up some friends who have good attitudes and go at it. Or join a learning party in PF, whatever, I'm not your mother. But acting like this is some Herculean task for the majority of players is silly. They just need to step up to the plate and give it a shot.

And if you dont have that round of friends? Go into a learning party and how often do they want you to have watched a guide? If most people in this game were good at it then normal fights would not need all the nerfs..I remember how nearly impossible steps of faith was because a lot of people had problems following instructions. I dont want to count the time with randoms in normal dungeons where they did not even know how to aoe..and the countless of wipes in normal trials because people at lvl 80 still dont understand easy mechanics like stacking. There is a reason why one of the biggest threads on this forum is about stories from the Duty finder.

And if its so easy and most can do it then why do we even have the relic weapon? Why give the casual players are more easy but grindy way to get a good weapon. Let just throw a few in extreme trials and since most can do it lets just do that right?
