Funny, that.

Also to those saying falling off of Titan or w/e "didn't let you learn anything"... you realize people could watch the fight while permadead, right? They could see mechanics going out, in what order, what they do, and generally get a sense of how to work through them by watching other players performing them. I'm not really bothered one way or another about that specifically, but they are effectively removing teaching tools for the sake of making ARR content even more boring and safe than it already was.
I wonder if they're ever going to change up CT, something tells me I doubt it or at least I doubt anytime soon. Anyway besides CT in the DF I hardly get ARR content lately, but I also don't really do leveling unless I'm leveling a baby job.. and even then I just potd or something. But yeah I'm in agreement I wish endgame content was more robust but clearly it hasn't been their focus for a long time.

Also it's probably not just me that tabs out/looks at my phone when permadeath is in play, right? I guarantee you most people likely mentally clock out once they realize they can't be revived lol. It's just not fun to sit there dead. A good way to learn mechanics is by.. doing them too. Which I'm sure the majority would rather do than just simply watch, but to each their own I guess
