Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
Why tho?
You can just do your frontline roullette once a day and you'll get there eventually before the new season comes out.
Did that during the last season as well as with the current one.
When it comes to a grind, I'm either fully committed, or I don't bother at all. CC series grinds I basically just go all in until it's done, provided I have the incentive. That's just how I operate. I've tried to take my time before, but my mind keeps telling me "DO IT. DO IT NOW!" lol I know it's healthier for my mental state to do it casually, but when I am focused on something, I literally can't do anything else.

Same, you feel a sense of relief and pride when you acquire the item you wanted and grinded for so long. Happened to me when I initially didn’t want to grind Eureka since no rewards interested me, then when I was looking to make a tank glam that would look close to a garlean highly ranked soldier, I just couldn’t help but dive in it until I’d get the chest piece.
I hated Pyros but the rest was ok. Was a more fun experience compared to Bozja.

It is so easy to get to rank 25 before you lose the ability to claim the reward, I would actually increase the level required to get it from 25. I would definitely also add some additional ways to cash in the crystals which would keep people interested in joining - given a fair number of people get to rank 25 in a short or extremely short period of time.
As others have already mentioned, there are multiple ways to rank up, no single mode is perfect, and I certainly agree that some improvements are overdue - however if someone really detests PVP, there are multiple other achievements to be had, I would really rather not have the PVP achievements made meaningless in the interests of "accessibility".
As a PvP Andy, I am loving these responses.
I love having armor nobody else has, or people like OP are too lazy or whiny to get.
I personally love how gated it is. Because then I won't see a bunch of "casuals" wearing it, which takes out the enjoyment of PVP-exclusive armor.
It's like how Corrupted Ashbringer stopped being cool once everybody got one in Legion.

I feel like people seem to forget that a reward is a lot more enjoyable and valued when you obtain it through your time and effort for it. I dont like how people's mentality is always about needing everything to be a given or everything needing to be as accessible as possible.As a PvP Andy, I am loving these responses.

Heck I think people confuse accessible with "participation". PvP is extremely accessible, even obtaining the series exp is not gated behind any actual effort to be victorious in matches. Its literally them wanting you participating in pvp matches to get the reward.
This is just reminding me that I never did finish getting the other two Garo mounts. I should go back to that at some point.

Same! I think the game should have way more exclusive stuff. Not only does it allow it to age faster, it will also undermine the whole "character expression" bs. There's nothing I hate more than this game and it's shitty playerbase!
