Outside few reasons that others have laid out, another reason I'm not interested to raid---or rather, PF'ing EX/Savage---is because of the general PF mentality that I've noticed since Endwalker and onward: to treat one another like your pseudo trust NPCs. Idm filling, helping, or doing these fights with group of friends or fixed statics. But because I no longer have that, they're just unworthy of a mental investment.

I gave raiding plenty of chances though at this point. The most recent was the Cruiserweight but it only took 2 attempts to notice the same mentality has not only gone away but is actually way worse. So yeah, no. I'll stick to my RP/friends circles peacefully, thank you.
