Please re-evaluate the difficulty of previous endgame content on the DF

[Ryaan]

Yes, I totally agree. That isn't what I'm talking about though. I'm simply saying that those new players who were awesome enough to get a group for that content aren't going to be literate enough in the camera controls to deal with the mechanic as easily as they deal with allagan rot or the turn 4 dance. There needed to be some kind of fight earlier in the game that forced the players into learn about those controls in the same way they were forced to learn how to use the other UI elements. That wasn't done, so the fight had a higher attrition rate than it really needed to back when it was still current content.

I don't know why you keep mentioning they HAVE to learn camera control for divebombs. I have never moved my camera when divebombs are coming down. When I first went into the fight I read guides to help me know whats coming (there were a few by the time I got to T5) and I found a way to adjust without having to move the camera. As a lala if I got the marker I wouldn't see it over the taller races (have a few roegies in my group) so I turned up the volume for battle sounds, turned off the music and just listened. Everyone was stacked well enough and you move when ya hear it. If camera movements aren't your thing you find a way to adjust. I feel you don't think highly enough of the standard players capabilities.
