Crafting Needs a Place in Endgame Raiding

Yes and no. A lot of players refuse to spend hours upon hours practising and figuring out a mechanic if there is no reward worthwhile at the end of it. This is something I have experienced with many players. When Twin dropped ilvl90 the motivation was world first/server first. So you got very few group doing everything they could to secure it. After that the motivation died so twin got switched to drop ilvl95. As I explained before I have both witnessed and experienced this issue. I had to replace 3 tanks, 1 SMN, and 2 SCH because they did not even want to try Twin.

Progression is a big part of FFXIV, it is why players whom only log in once a week still plays this game, awaiting the next big challenge accompanied by equivalent reward.

P.S.

After the switch to ilvl95 , each player that I was forced to replace reached out to try to rejoin the group. Unfortunately for them, I was not about to replace a player who tried and killed her with us with someone who did not even want to try, regardless if they were better players or not.
