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

and static groups don't let people join if they are inexperienced.

It depends.

If you mean a static pugging a random one yeah. Considering the "jump the rope" mechanic FFXIV fights have, you really can't afford newbie. It just not possible if you want to beat a fight.

If you mean static having a new player in their ranks, then it's false. Based on my experience, most static are willing to teach their new members the fight because of course these members will stick with them and next week will know how to dance, Yoshi-scriped fights.

Is echo that much of a gain ? I personally dont believe so, it helps but is not that much of a guaranteed win just because you have a 25 % HP more in the end it is only around 10-15% real HP gain.

Make it easier no not all, just increase the reaction time slightly and it should fix most of the problems and I dont speak of 2sec just even if only by half a second.

Just me though

It's not just HP, but also dmg received and inflicted, as well healed. I remember using adlo and getting 1.6k HP of shield without crit. Also level 100 Gears + in a fight that some people finished in DL.
