The new 24 man alliance raids are a disappointment (mechanic wise)

i got a new pc so all my settings/keybinds got reset. I was in there relearning how to play and reconfiguring keybinds midfight and turning off the "everyone's skill effects are visible" settings midfight

As soon as you change stuff, always download it to the server. Before clicking on your character, right click your character's name and select 'Back Up Character Settings' - then on your new computer you can download them. This works to the PS5 as well. Always back up your character data so you never have to re-bind anything and everything setting, macro, or skill pallets again! This includes what your character was using (armor wise) as well on last download and upload. Save yourself stress in the future!

If you want harder content go play ultimate or unsub thats what the director said and the community agreed.

Can't tell if this is sarcasm or not, but it's sadly accurate.

Go back to Yoshi's comments on the current relics. It's clear they want to see content clear rates go up, and they're willing to do that by any means.

While it's true they stated that they had a newer team working on the EndWalker raids, they also mentioned a higher difficult for this release. That didn't happen, and it's clear that they had no intention of making it happen.

The sad part is that the community will be thrilled by it. They'll see this as SE being widely accepting of everyone, when the reality is SE just wants to increase the number of completions in order to make it seem like they're producing good content.

I also thought it would be a little bit harder. I was new today, it's day 1 and we were never even close to wipe. Shouldn't be like this at day 1.

Sadly the mentality of ''if want harder content go play ultimates'' is spreading, what is funny is that the same people telling this are the first to rant about ''too many resources goes into ultimates instead of more casual content''. I honestly have lost faith on any new dungeon or 24 man to not be braindead.
The only thing that still keeps my sub are the ultimates bcz even savage is suffering from this approach and the community is too much passive-aggresive about ''keeping the game casual friendly'' to discuss the matter.

All this complaining yet the same people will still continue to do it.....gotta love it.

I actually enjoyed the fights
Dosn't have to be hard to be fun ^^

Dungeons and normal raids are getting easier and easier while fights like Ultimates get harder and harder.
I don't know if I like how they are making the gap between casual and hardcore bigger and bigger.

That's the messed up part. I did exactly this before I swapped over to my new PC. When I redownloaded my settings, all it kept was that the BGM turned off, but everything else was gone. I had to redo every setting and lost all my macros, shit sucked.

Bad take, mate. The most I expect from 24man raids in terms of difficulty is Ivalice (not super hard, but also not snoozefest easy). EW 24man raids have just been glorified Light Party dungeons where every boss spends most of their time "teaching us" one mechanic at a time, rather than just... throwing us into the deep end.

Also not a single Ozma/Thunder God/Superior Flight Unit fight. What's up with that? Also every boss I feel does not have enough HP. Like it seems they set the boss HP to be AT the minimum ilevel, making it so that anyone who farmed the 6.4 raids, or always stayed up to date on their tome gear would be way to powerful for them.

Nobody enjoys wipping 10 times in the same boss on a 24 man raid , those in fact are for story - lore content. It's suppose to be easy and move on.
