Patch Notes are up!

I don't understand why people think:

"Main Story must remain face roll easy."

People were complaining about Steps of Faith like it was Turn 9 of Coil...it's no where close to that, hell its easier that the first binding coils of bahamut.

Its a shame that people were unable to get a clear, I agree that Vishap might've had a bit too much HP for an i90 requirement, but nerfing everything is a bit silly. The adds were already weak enough, now they are going to have less HP? Oh lawdie...I hope by this SE doesn't pre-nerf / scale down future Heavensward content.

Ha, remember back when people thought CM and Prae were too hard? SE never nerfed those, and now they're so massively easy due to the increased item levels that nobody would dare mention nerfs to them. SoF would have become the same way after Heavensward gets released, due to mobs being able to get burned down easier from the higher ilvls, allowing everybody to focus on Vishap and his mechanics.

Not trying to pick on you, your comment about "people complaining as if it was Turn 9" caught my eye. I think what a lot of people fail to realize is that there are hundreds of thousands of players in this game. That is a huge amount of people, and the skill level will range tremendously within it. Even with a ton of devoted time and practice, some people will just never be that good. It is what it is.

So because a fight is painfully easy for you, it doesn't mean it's going to be a cake walk for the next person. SE is concerned about making this game accessible to as many people as possible. I do think they laid on the tweaks a bit hard, but hey, if that will get more people through the story and ready for the x-pac, that's fine. I've never understood why people get so riled up when something like this gets nerfed. It's the main story line - not some end-game raid where they will actually be getting loot drops.
