Patch Notes are up!

The problem was the people who cleared day 1 and abandoned..

And also the people who don't communicate and listen to instructions. There were quite a number of players rerunning Steps of Faith on Cactuar on the first few days of release. No clue on other servers, but there were a crap ton of people willing to to SoF again on Cactuar. The problem was that when people realised how horrible some DF groups are with players not communicating, it isn't far fetched to see why players abandon the trial.

Sorry, forcing a low skilled player to redo a fight blocking progression will likely cause a rage-quit more than a sudden improvement in skill.

"Hey I'm impatient! Nerf the fight so I can get through!" - said low skilled player.
If they made the Heavensward content more difficult than what we have right now, I fear for the future of content.

Read and agree with whole post.

Ah, you're one of those guys.
