<Final Fantasy> Downs Twintania! (No Exploits / Post-Nerf)

[carraway]

By the way Carraway we should probably start bugging SE about getting a PTR soon

Honestly, I wouldn't want to be able to raid all of a patch's new content on PTR then breeze through live encounters, but maybe just letting us fully test the first boss of any new content would be a good idea. With the rushed release, it's hard to tell exactly what kind of QA resources they have, but the more the better.

I'd honestly like to see the game evolve into an Ulduar HM style of raiding where there is an easy way to kill an encounter and then a harder way that is much more difficult but drops gear that is maybe half a tier above the ilvl of the normal kills drop.

If blizzard was actually good at balancing their game PTR would be used more for balancing classes, testing dps checks, and in SE's case (testing how latency affects certain mechanics due to their positional update on their servers). Even if SE only let us test early bosses it'd given them a good metric for where to set gear checks at from a DD standpoint.

The Uld HM mechanics would allow for them to spread out progression more so that we don't have literally everyone working on the same boss as well. Seems odd that almost every guild in the world is working on twintania.
