Without some difficult content, this is a Final Fantasy-flavored Second Life. Nobody should want that.



Patch 2.3 is Casual Gamer Catering: The Patch. Are we playing the same game?
you are seriously messing around there... even for a good group that farm it, do T5, all the EX and T6-T9 will take more of 2 hours.


the trouble that you don't seems to understand is this: because they try to balance content for satisfy hardcore, they can't add content. because they need to balance the game to the point that even people with little play time can still beat the content (if they have 7 other people with them that know the fight)

more important, because hardcore don't want the other to have the same stuff... all the other challenge that was possible in the game was destroyed litterally. treasure hunt and the futur "hunt" system are made to not give more than i90 stuff... when we can get i110 stuff max. what the point? it means the team that do T6-T9 every week, will faceroll this sort of alternative content.
and what it worst... it's that the i110 stuff is not needed for finish T6-T9, some team have done it in i95-100. what the point? make it more easier to do? when any attack that will hit you will mostly kill you?
i don't see the point there.... instead to care for the hardcore that only a small part of the community... they must add content that have replayability and fun! challenge must'nt be like we have actually. it's not challenge... we are not playing... we are repeating like a machine the pattern that needed for beat the content. where are our capacity of player? we are machine! we are not playing!
at best we are dancing repeating the step of a dance with the hope that our 7 other partner will not miss a step and wipe us.

why people leave? because is not fun... is totally the inverse of fun. when you have beat this dance... it's over, you will beat it almost all the time with the same group. they are trying to make a game a la darksoul into mmorpg... it's silly, it's not epic, it's not what we ask... we ask to be forced to play our character to the most extend of our capacity and more important in team! not right next to the 7 other member of the team. they need to add more interaction between class that will affect the teamplay!
