Current State of End-Game Contents - A Blog Post from A Japanese Player

I have to say I agree with the OP about the instant death mechanics. There are just too many of them and they make the game boring honestly. As long as you have can learn the dance, you will always win. If one person can't, you will pretty much always lose.

It is so heavy in this game that it makes all other types of player skill irrelevant. Sure you can have a couple of instant death mechanics here and there but especially in primal fights, that's all there is to a battle. Being able to do your rotations and having good gear only matters in a handful of DPS checks scattered throughout the game.

It's not that I want them to do away with the dance. Not dancing is just as boring. But it would be nice if they could find a balance. Right now it is 100% team jump rope (lol) or die. And that's just lame.

The only part of the guys post i agree with, allagan rot and titan should have thier 1 hit kill moves because thats what makes the fight but we have way too many 1 hit kill moves

I agree. I only hate mechanic stuff cause if one person stinks it brings the party down. The good players can't do anything lol. I think I agree with what he said but the complete opposite spectrum

The "good players" should be picking up the slack like actual good players do, you are exaggerating way to much when you say 1 person (unless they are the only heal, srsly even a bad tank can be salvaged with a good enough heal) can screw up the dungeon/trial/raid entirely.

also you hate game mechanics?......................maybe its just because im taking a game design course right now but that was the dumbest thing i have seen on the thread
