    Except as several others have pointed out, the process is so slow and restricted people aren't continuously logging in to help others. Some of us wait until we're actually close to bis before touching PF while others give up entirely because they're sick to death of capping each week for months on end just to gear a second job. Not to mention, the whole one person having previously cleared screwing up loot makes it difficult to even go into PF. On the whole, their system is failing its intended goal.

    Criterion dungeons may potentially make this worse as we're essentially forced to stay on the only role we've chosen to gear by the time of its release. Case in point, not everyone in my static cares about it yet those of us who do can't flex because we simply don't have the gear.

    This runs entirely counter to your previous argument for Savage. 25 runs is nothing. EXs would be basically abandoned within the same patch they release. Yet you'd prefer that but argue against making system lowing Savage and tome restrictions?

    That is a separate issue. They could make it so that if 7 people have cleared already, they automatically roll Need on the loot but it goes into a void if they win.

    Rather than it being my argument, it's an argument I remember being made by Yoshi-P in interviews, where I remember he said he could write a book about why things like the current tomestone caps are required.

    In other news, there is no technical debt from 1.0.
