4-man variants for endgame content going forward?

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

I'm glad someone else noticed this.

I can respect the idea and opinion that 4 man content won't be as difficult as 8 man content due to the fact that there's less people to coordinate with(tanks/healers for instance won't have to coordinate with a double at all). The other part of what that person is saying though is literally gatekeeping.

For reference:


Tell me how this isn't gatekeeping content behind the idea that it should be reserved for only those who are willing to invest even more time outside of the actual content?

Why can't we just learn the content, jump into a group and do our thing?

It's not gatekeeping. Complexity of fights inherintly drops the less people there are to do mechanics/meet dps checks.

You have 6,000 post count, have been playing since 2011 and you have no idea how to read. You have my sympathies :/


I already acknowledged that portion of what that person said. What you failed to notice is that they also made it clear that they felt that unless you were willing to commit to becoming a part of a roster and essentially spending excess time with that roster for the purpose of completing harder content then you have no business playing said content.

IDK why they were talking about respect, I was simply commenting on the other aspect of it. You wouldnt get the same rewards, nor should you, in a 4 man version of an EX or savage fight, because it would inherently be easier. With that being the case, the amount of dev time required to make it work for no real reward makes it kind of pointless. And PF exists for people who cant commit to specifc times.
