    Making Content Easier

    I don't mind them making content easier for the more casual players. I myself still need to down Twintania. Our static is about to start pushing progression this weekend. With that said, if we don't get it down, (confident we will) I still want to beat the fight the way it was meant to be played. I don't want our group getting lazy. Same reason I don't do turn 2 enrage, when its full FC. I would like the option. Sure make it easier and DF accessible, but make that version drop lower item lvl. Those that want to, should be able to complete old content the normal way and be rewarded for it. This may not be the best idea, but it was a thought I had and figured I would express it.

    I played AK the other day with a very high-iLevel party. We dominated that dungeon. Mobs were being torn apart left and right as we did incredible DPS. We made it to the final boss in record time and destroyed him. I was happy. I had a lot more fun being a badass in the dungeon than I ever did trying to survive my way around a difficult dungeon. This is one thing I loved about the other FF titles - being able to to away an level up and become awesome and then returning to the content that was difficult and kicking its butt. I would like to see some "easier" content like this at end game - I don't think everything has to be difficult to be enjoyed.

    You had six months to beat it, be rewarded for it and feel special.

    And you're doing the nerfed version already. You don't see anyone from BG wanting to make the weapons weaker for the people who beat it after them.

    I don't think they should give lower level rewards for content that was made easier. It kind of defeats the point of making it easier if the reward isn't as good. Although, that's what they did with AK isn't it? Made it easier and made it drop the same crap from WP instead?

    That is what SE do in some way. With 2.2 ilevel 90 gear is no longer the highest ilevel gear

    But isn't the appeal that you remember what AK once was? Yes to most level 50s now it's a joke, no one would have trouble on AK now. But people actually used to find it hard, there were people who couldn't even get past Demon Wall for a while.

    My point is that I have no problem with people over-gearing for Twintania and destroying her because they are stronger, it's the fact that they are making her weaker.
