Turn 9 downed in less than one month after release

Seems poorly tuned. Should have been better DPS and HP checks to make gearing up worthwhile. Kind of disappointed that this was finished with a group that couldn't have an average iLevel more than 95.

Regardless, congrats to BG as always.

There are ways to gear people up faster than other groups. Fill a group with half alt characters. Make it so those alts can't roll on gear over mains and then on progression nights have all mains.

That makes zero sense since unless you are part of that group or finished the content you have no right to say that kind of nonsense.

Do you not remember all the people who haven't cleared Twintania but were still complaining about the lack of things to do? I'll bet you my fat chocobo we'll be seeing bored threads before long.

Maybe it would've been best if SE went the "CT" route with previous turns in the new patches. Turn 1-5 set at a CT level while turn 6+ is still normal. New/unskilled players get to see the story and fight, older/skilled players have a new toy to play with, everyone wins.

Actually...I want flex raid.

That's what the echo is for.

^^ pretty much that.

It's not uncommon for the "best" few groups to clear content pretty quickly, that's just how it works. BG spents tons of money on crafting and overmelding gear, farming all the BIS they could, etc. They deserve their win.

You know, iL95 doesn't mean 'not good'. At iL95 you could be substantially optimized for specific stats, a Bard with just enough accuracy and near 600 crit for example. I've looked at the new equipment, some of it is actually pretty bad in regards to stat stacking. Going the full iLwhatever-number-is-max doesn't do you any favors, not that it did before 2.2.

I know, but going the CT route generally means the fights are tweaked dmg wise and some mechanics are even thrown out. Not saying SE should go this route, just saying its an option.

Mechanics did get thrown out/nerfed. Knights/soldiers (whichever reflect magic dmg) are hugely nerfed and ADS high voltage paralyze procs much less often.

if the fight is in any way similar to the 1.0 version, this is in no way suprising.
