Who am I fooling? These posers wouldn't touch content like that if Yoshi paid them personally.

Pandemonium Warden was bugged. That wasn't difficulty; that was stupidity.

God that's all we need is people dying irl while fighting a boss for 12 hours. Isn't ffxiv's reputation messed up enough without adding something like that in?

Ifrit ex from 1.0 is so much harder than 2.0 Ifrit ex. >.>

Anything that was hard about ifrit ex from 1.0 was artificial. This being animation lock and lag. Mechanically and healing wise, 2.0 is a lot harder. I think the only thing that might be a bit harder in 1.0 is the dps check on the last set of nails.

And no I would never sit in front of my computer for hours on end fighting one boss. That's just foolish to think that time spent = difficulty.

You didn't fight AV if you thought it was a time spent = difficulty. PW only was because of the method people used to kill it. BLU zergs for the win I guess. I have to say I didn't envy their exp loss.

In battlecraft escort leves, emotes used to guide NPCs will now be effective from longer range. To preserve game balance in light of this, the difficulty of the following guildleves has been increased.

Both of these are good. Because the hardest part of those quests was putting up with spamming the call command. The actual enemies where minor distractions, even at the most 'difficult'.

- The population of beast tribe enemies has been increased.

Here's hoping this doesn't make that "pumpkin bomb" daily even more frustrating than it already was.

We are so screwed....Pumpkin Bomb is still ok.

The Water Bringer one, there is this spot where you need to steal water from this sylph is located at a narrow path, with a Aggor sylph near it. No way to avoid it.

I'm beyond pissed about the nerf on Thornmarch. I haven't even had a chance to TRY the thing yet. I mean COME ON! you release a patch. It's during the holidays some have time to play and there's nothing wrong with that. But me? I was visiting family for 2 weeks. Come back happy as a clam to try out this new patch... but... I'm already seeing this content getting nerfed? I might not have a ton of time on my hands but I'm not some g*d d*mn farmville convert. I LIKE challenges. I LIKE seeing the freakin' content I'm paying for before it gets nerfed to the freaking GROUND. I'm mean christ it's been only 4 weeks since 2.1 released and the content is already receiving nerfs? *flips monitor*

It takes about 1 hour to get to Thornmarch. You didn't have 1 hour of playtime in the last month?

Well I'm not psychic. I guess you are? I've been playing when I can and doing the content I felt like doing in the order I felt like doing it. Sorry for not realizing that thornmarch was the magical instance that would get the nerf hammer out of the tons of content that was released again only 4 weeks ago. I guess I should have known with all the talks of how incredibly hard it is.... oh wait.

Sorry for being snarky but I'm just so tired of this shit. Every mmo these days shuffles people along and if you don't play at their set paced you get screwed over. If you go too fast you get bored if you go too slow you get dumbed down snoresville content and get bored. I just want to see and attempt the content as the designers intended it. I don't see why I should be denied that.
