People Enjoy hard Games

That my friend is an opinion. The developers deemed it necessary so what makes you think they don't know their own game? Why do you want it changed back?

Like i keep saying it was never difficult to complete and its original difficulty wasn't that much harder then it currently is so why change it to become easier when it was always easy.

Plus they never “changed” it, ilvl creep ruined it, it’s the same thing as people now complaining that it ruins endsinger, there was no active change to the content itself

And in answer to your question, to give the sprouts an authentic experience of an actual raid, CT gives a terrible first experience of alliance raids

That is your opinion you cannot speak for others experience, you can only speak to your own , crystal tower is part of the main story quests and no matter how much you personally want it to change and be harder it won't be. I will say it again there are people with varying degrees of skill who play this game and the game is made for a wide variety of players especially the MSQ.

Why do you think there is a duty roulette? It's not there just to give you bonus stuff it's there so new players who join can do these dungeons, the bonus stuff is for you to participate. Here is a idea get a group of people and do the harder content with them, coordinate and plan your own group of that's right it will take work to do that. I don't know maybe I'm crazy but just a thought. If you are advocating for harder new content then I support you! But going back to old content that is tied to the story is not a winning strategy for the devs.

While were at it why dont we gut out every bosses mechanics in every mandatory story dungeon from arr-shb and have each boss auto attack only because we have to "think of the new players" because apparently every new player wants hack and slash black dessert online combat where bosses only auto attack.

idk why ilvl sync isn’t the default rather than the exception

So because you don't like what I said about story being king in this MMO you say this? Lol okay so glad the devs don't listen to this forum. Carry on with shouting at the clouds! Hyperbole it's a thing!

I don't have a problem with the story being a focus i just think something that is already extremely easy shouldn't be made even easier just because "it became mandatory." If something becoming mandatory is the only excuse for making something even easier then they should do it with mandatory dungeons as well. Before shadow bringers crystal tower didn't take any longer than it does now except maybe further power/potency creeps making it easier. There are times i think the only reason why people like the current crystal tower raids is because it takes less then 10 minutes and people can lazily spam it for moogle tome events and that's why they wouldn't want it changed back while also using the excuse of "but what about the new players".

For some reason they don’t synch the big X.0 fights. The final fight of the 6.0 endwalker MSQ isn’t synched and a couple of friends and I rolled it in roulettes and we had to sandbag pretty hard to not ruin a new players experience since we are about 100ilvl over the mark for where it’s balanced at.

I know it's taboo on this forum, but I don't find the game easy at all and despite how long I've been playing now (about 20 months) remain pretty terrible at it. Which isn't to say that I want anything to change - in fact, being rubbish at the game pushes me to keep trying to improve, even if I often fail to do so.
