Patch Notes are up!

People being unable to deal with basics in the game caused the trial to be a nightmare to go into, which had the result of people leaving the duty

Nope.

Queuing for something (trial roulette) they thought would take 2 minutes, and then having to spend 3 minutes explaining, 9 minutes failing, 9 minutes failing again, and then 9 minutes succeeding did that. Even the absolute best case scenario is using 1/3rd of your lock out time for leaving for no rewards except 15 soldiery and 7 poetics. A whole 3/2 more than Garuda HM, but with no chance at weapon (glamour or GC seals) or TT card, while taking 5 times as long. You could do literally anything else in that time and get better rewards. And that's best case. Average for ANY trial with a good portion of first timers is 2-3 wipes. That's over 30 minutes, longer than your lockout, to get. . . basically nothing.

It's how long the wipes took. Not that they happened. Chrysalis wiped constantly when it was new, too. On day 1 it took me about 3 or 4 DF groups to find one that could do it, running out the clock on the trial at least twice. No one seriously complained about it. It's still not nerfed.

Edit: I edit posts a lot within the first 10-30 seconds because of the 1000 character limit. Which is annoying/stupid.

I can see your point, but that would cause people to NOT sign up in my opinion, because if you were to sign up, get SoF and leave without even trying you then run the risk of getting SoF again on your next run, then you've just wasted an hour doing absolutely nothing at all because you have the penalty.

Look, I am not disagreeing with you on how people are abandoning it causing more problems. I'm just saying that the whole reason that trial is causing problems, is because the average skill level of the playerbase is pretty damn low and they find something like that too much to deal with in a PUG. So in essence, asking for ANY change to that fight, is asking for a nerf (aside from the idea that you could reset the fight rather than waiting 9 minutes for it to finish, that idea I actually absolutely agree with).
