Good. That's literally just good job design. It shouldn't be free and zero-thought.



So don't do that. It's that easy. Simply don't enter reawaken at a time that results in dropping something.

It's not free or zero thought? I think you vastly overestimate the average skill of the playerbase. A mistake the devs made with DT, EW, and HW. Having traps built into the class is something the devs have been trying to remove since HW taught them that trap class design is bad for the game.

The ability to make minor mistakes isnt a trap.

I don't. However, I am aware as to the fact that the average skill is as low as it is by choice, not because of how the game is designed. The vast majority of the playerbase does not wish to engage with the game on any meaningful level. There's a world of difference between not wanting to play the game and genuinely low skill.

Having traps built into the class

Not allowing you to make one of the stupidest possible rotational choices is not a "trap." I'm sorry, but if you think juggling a handful of buffs and debuffs is a "trap," then you probably shouldn't be playing or discussing this game as you are clearly unqualified. The sheer possibility of making even the smallest of mistakes is not a trap or a mistake on the part of the game. Please stop discussing things you know less than nothing about.

The vast majority of this playerbase doesn't actually want to engage with this game in any meaningful way.

Case in point:

You won't have to stare at boss debuffs, for one. That's a pretty big win

You unironically consider not engaging in a fundamental game mechanic as a win.
