Tiggy, what did we say about using logic and reason on the forums?

I know I keep forgetting.....

It really does seem like that's the #1 rule around here.

I have a feeling the big reveal will be the expansion and nothing else. I'm still hoping we'll get some nice surprises in 2.4, but I have a feeling they consider Rogue/Ninja to be the "new type of content" of this patch. I would love nothing else than to be proven wrong though! =)

that's exacly what i said... but well, good job, you seem very clever...

You assert that it's the worst patch yet it's the same as the ones that came before. Why is this one the worst in your view? I don't think you explained this.

Edit: You explained it. You went on a limb and assumed there would be nothing "new".

Festival is supposed to be Expansion focused...but given how Yoshi P says a lot of things..I wouldn't be surprised if it was purely about 2.4 instead.

Going to be optimistic and say Fenrir will probably be the toughest dungeon boss we have ever had. Just by the fact that ST will have no lockouts. Free sands anyone? Sol will be uncapped as well. Average ilvl will be 105

Im really hoping they bring back some difficulty to the game.

When 2.0 first went live, I remember wiping on Demon Wall for an hour - The fight wasn't particularly hard, it was just a dance but still it was pretty intense!! - Titan hard as well - Pretty difficult at the time... Now it just seems to be "Heres some new "hard" dungeons that aren't that hard at all...

Hopefully with the lockout being removed from ST, they up the difficulty with the new stuff.

Right now, for me personally, the hardest thing about the game is finding people to do coil 2 with. Everything else (inb4 zomg u don't raid = u don't know sh*t) is too easy. I know that not all people feel this way, and that for newer players there are a lot of things that can certainly be difficult still. Ramuh Ex is pretty difficult with a PUG but with a good group or with ur FC its just another boss.

I also understand that Yoshi cares a lot for the newer players and he is also satisfying the raiders with coil3, but what about the rest of us "middling" players? I find it insulting that ST is considered challenging content for tier 2 stuff (anything not coil and not a normal dungeon). Hullbreaker Isle, Tam Tara, and stone vigil are easily doable with 3 people. No challenge at all.

I love the game and still log in everyday because it is fun for me, but at the same time, if I die its usually just a derp and not because something challenign caused me to fail.
