The reason FFXIV is lacking content is because of casualization.

Yeah I mean I get they exist in general. But it's never been a real problem, even day of. We're designed to be able to basically brute force through everything with AoE and overheal. Unless of course your comp was SGE + GNB* day of, then FML. lol
(Again only strictly talking about Mobs/Trash)

It just doesn't compare to a lot of the decision making we need to do in other MMOs, or ARR-HW of course. And we can say that's good or bad depending on who wants that type of content. But ultimately it just is.

I don't deny we have to think in some content, mostly boss mechs. But I literally try not to do any content with trash anymore, because I fall asleep. :/

I almost wish we got rid of it altogether, or the trash phase in dungeons were shorter. Because they're not enjoyable. They did right by the trash adjustments in Alliance/Raid.

The tether in Amaurot was. Once we figured it out and that mob got focused down, groups didn't have issues. The boosted Dohn Mheg mob could also delete your tank's HPs. I mean, we know these examples because we learned to watch for them and react because they were impactful.
