It's too soon to nerf content!

A full year to get to the end game content? Honestly, if your taking one full year to get there.....even casuals will have passed you up. If you haven't seen or beaten Twintania yet its either because you waited to even start the end game or your probably not good enough to do it period.

6 months is a very large, generous window on content. Making sure newer players can beat it when "new" content comes out is important for the health of the game and to attract new player, as well as keep everyone on a similar level playing field.

If content stayed the way it was for a year, and they add new stuff every 3 months.....you do realize how much it would take if you needed to catch someone up for your static or raid group?

I 100% disagree. We are talking about coil here. Coil is supposed to be hardcore content. Players who don't have the skill level can play the main story, hard dungeons, crystal tower and maybe even extreme primal as they are added. Coil should be something to aspire to; not be handed. You make it seem like they will be missing out on all of this content because they are stuck when 90% of the game'a content is outside of coil.

Also, what's your definition of casual? Add up all the hours it takes to level from 1 to 50, complete all the main storyline and be a high enough item level o fight twintania. You think "casual" players will hit that within 6 months (and gain the experience to beat him)? Really? I see casual as being 4 to 5 hours a week tops.

I think it depends more on what type of player you are. If your someone who plays 5 hours a week and doesnt care sure it might not be 6 months to do it. Of course at that rate, even a year wont be enough time for them.

However, I know people who have a family/job/etc and play 30ish hours a month who are turn 5 and have been for a while. Heck I know someone who didnt even start till November who is "casual" and got to 50 over holidays.

That's impossible, people can't have a real life and play a game for any extended period of time.
