Here we go again

Great news to all players struggling with MSQ dungeons: In the latest Live Letter LXXXIX, Mr Yoshida said: ...

I should buy a lottery ticket:

We already have the Willful buff in the 8-person trials. SE just needs to add it to the dungeons. It'd be a good balance between being allowed to make some fatal mistakes and still having to demonstrate that you can more or less get through the dungeon without being dragged along as a corpse the whole way.

It's a reasonable solution. The content remains a decent challenge for most but anyone who struggles can just brute force it with Trusts. Problem solved, everybody wins.

So Yoshi is making us have to suffer even more by making us die over and over and over to these impossible mechanics they put into Meso Terminal?
I mean honestly how do they expect me to dodge a big ball above my head!?
>:C

And it doesn't impact the difficulty of the content for those wanting the challenge? If so that's fantastic, because then everybody wins.

Nope, not at all. They're basically just giving stacks of the auto-rez buff that you get in the 8 man trials. Sounds like stacks go up if you die on the same boss. They reset after you beat the boss. This should make these fights much more accessible to those who struggle without changing anything about the fights themselves since it's basically just letting someone raise automatically after a fatal mistake.

You problem.

I'm almost 40 with a vision impairment and I don't struggle with Meso terminal.

A much better solution than making dungeon bosses less interesting again.

Oh they're doing that anyway, because Trusts can't handle anything more interesting than "dodge the orange danger zone".
See the upcoming changes to Aurum Vale and Dzemael Darkhold to make them more "NPC friendly", because not even optional dungeons are safe anymore.

Does anyone care about these 2 dungeons in the first place in 2025, tho? I've done it tons of times for mentor or high level rous and I'll heal everyone on auto-pilot too. If anything, I'm glad SE is streamlining old content for everyone who is going to be stuck by chance on ARR dungeons.

[Valence]

You call it streamlining, I call it homogenizing.
