Endgame Content To Easy

[BlossomRose]

I don't really understand the complaint you're having.

I find the content in this game to be disgustingly easy as it were, except for Twintania.

Primals? You just learn their move rotations and you're done, that's it. If they'd randomized the rotations, it might have been challenging.

Turn 1? It's tank and spank.

Turn 2? Yeah okay the Allagan Rot needs some coordination, and the tanks have to work together, but it's still pretty damn easy.

Turn 3? Oops, nothing.

Turn 4? ... wow look it's 7 minutes of fighting trash. And all of it is tank and spank.

The endgame dungeons otherwise? CM? Tank boss, tank adds, kill boss. Praetorium? Insanely cool music, but huh... the fights are pretty much a joke. AK? Again, a joke.

Sorry, but I don't buy that "content is fine where it is". Content is currently insanely easy by MMO standards, and the only actual difficulty isn't because of the fight mechanics but because of the lag/delay issues with AOE mechanics.

And let's be honest here, Twintania being undefeated doesn't mean a damn thing. Her twisters are bugged. GMs can answer they're not all they want but THEY ARE. I've seen the fight a hundred times using a hundred different tactics and it ALWAYS comes down to the twisters being impossible to get past, or bad RNG.

So really, the content isn't even hard, it's just bugged. You're "reveling" in the fact that you cleared trivially easy content that takes 40 minutes on a monday to plow through (Turn 1-4 is a 40 minutes job if you don't wipe), and "reveling" in the fact that a bugged fight is currently undefeatable.

No duh it's undefeatable, it's bugged.

for new player AK is not a joke, only when you are fully geared is AK a joke and even then I see a fair few fail still on demon wall

AK is a joke the moment you know the mechanics. Yeah sure if you head in blind without knowing anything and nobody explains the fight it's hard, but that makes ANYTHING hard. Point in case:

Assembling an IKEA bookshelf. Insanely easy with the manual. Possibly hard without the manual if you don't know how bookshelves fit together.

Either way, my point is that a dedicated end-game FC clears current content in 40 minutes, and every fight leading to the current content is a joke.

Twintania being bugged, she doesn't count.

If content can be cleared in 40 minutes WHILE MISSING A TIER OF GEAR (Crystal Tower will have level 80 gear and was supposed to be where you go BEFORE you do Coil), IT IS TOO EASY. Terribly sorry to point it out.

And terribly sorry to the OP who keeps bragging about finally getting fights done through HARD WORK AND GUTS!!! when current end-game opinion is that all of it is too easy, and too short.

OP is coming off pretty much entirely as a casual who finally got his group of casual friends to deal with Coil 1 and wanted to brag about it because it's ~so ~haaaaard and thus the game is ~perfect. Sorry man, but it's trivial. It's easy. It's a joke. And it will get even easier when people have level 80 gear from CT instead of just level 70 gear.

FFXI did have some real challenging moments, don't kid yourself. I doubt you went in there and 1 shot all Sky bosses or Kirin. Like most games you have to learn the 'dance', which can take up to many hours of wipes to figure out. Once you figure the boss 'dance' out, it's always easy after that.

Blossom, I didn't mean for them to make it like FFXI.. just make content harder. Fighting a boss for hours was just dumb. Sure it made for some epic stories, but to all of us who did it.. never again lol.
