This. My FC has several players who just hit 50 and are progressing through the 2.1-2.55 content right now. To them, it's fun and new and exciting because it's stuff they haven't done before. We've been doing a lot of HM Primals and First Coil runs for people lately, and while it may seem like old hat to those of us who have run them a million times, the friends we're taking for the first time are having a blast.
