Patch Notes are up!

Read the quote I was replying to. Without any context as to what I said, you're creating an argument from nothing. Hint: I was addressing players who "Rage Quit".

Granted: But in the greater context of this thread people keep trying to blame 'casuals' for this nerf (like it even matters), but if you read any pre-nerf discussion about SoF with mostly people who haven't cleared: No one wanted a nerf. They just wanted players to not abandon immediately.

And this opinion is the reason so many people are raging against the raiding community.

They don't want to make their own way. They want a carry.

Can't even attempt to make your own way when 4/8 people immediately leave because they wanted 2-5 minute trial and got 15-80 minute trial with no rewards to speak of. Unfortunately, Vishap can't be 4 manned by the 3 DPS and 1 healer left over.

Im guilty of all your charges except the not doing trial. I still do it, i just do all the others to prevent having to deal with steps of fails.

And i will continue to do so. One (most likely) fail in there, hell, even a not fail taking 10-15 minutes, is taking two or three times as much as every other trial fight. I'll gladly take the 30 minutes and do other daily chores before reentering and getting something else. My time is spent much better when i don't deal with it. And that's where the problem ultimately lies. Add a mount to it, add a trial card, make it drop 200 soldier for new people or 10k gil if you got a newbie with you. Hell, the 10k (+4.5k roulette bonus) would make me stay if i got more then two-three hours on a workday to play. But as it is now, i don't even want to deal it on my free days where i can basically sit the whole day in front of the game, and not even then i want to add just any of my time in there.

Thank you. This is what I'm trying to get across. There's a good reason people do those things. That's what SE needs to fix. Are you going to go in there now and do 15 minutes for nothing? Especially with 1 wipe still being possible if not likely with enough new people learning mechanics (missing DKs, missing with canons, etc.) I think most people probably won't regardless of nerfs.
