I have a bone to pick about echo

[Jakeson]

I've been trying Garuda Extreme for a few weeks. It's not easy, and you need to know the fight to be successful. Now that echo is out, you can get a little edge for groups that are less than perfect. That's pretty excellent, except I'm sick and tired of people finally getting to 20% or 25% echo and bailing. If people know the fight but make a mistake here or there, 20% echo is an amazing edge up to finally finish this fight.

If you're not willing to stick it out and finish with a group that knows the fight but isn't perfect, don't join.

I am not perfect, and I'm not expecting anyone to be perfect at a fight. If you join up with people, stick it out with this new echo feature and give it a shot. If it still isn't successful, don't worry you can move on and waste your time farming level 10 fates...

I was finally able to get my veil of wiyu today because of echo thank you SE for making it possible for working people to advance in content.

My only complaint is that people don't even try anymore.

"Don't use any skills, only auto-attack, drag out phase 1, wipe after 3 minutes."

I can understand giving an edge to those groups who need it, but really? It's so sad that players have no motivation to improve because SE will eventually spoonfeed them.

They might want to add in a system where the higher the echo the less chance of an item drop there is. That way people get the full experience they need to finish a fight but might not necessarily get an item from it.

Though I could see some people whining about it.
