    I don't get why people whine about something locked behind an expansion.

    I mean, it's a progression stuff. If you want to get something cool, you have to go through a couple of easier stuffs first.

    If you can't even tank Aurum Vale properly... I mean what does DRK has that will make you better?

    That dark, cool-looking greatsword? Or the fact that it looks way cooler than the other ones?

    Remember. The grass ALWAYS looks greener on the other side.

    But hey, it's your opinion. I'm supposed to respect that so carry on.

    There has already been entire topcis devoted to discussing this, so I'll give you the TL;DR:

    There are sides that want people to have access to the content that they paid for. A level 30 class, ideally, is unlocked at level 30 without having to complete the previous expansion to be able to enjoy it. The fact that the zones are 50+ is reasonable enough, and gives people things to do for their maxed out jobs, but the fact that this expansion offers nothing enticing to new players is a huge disadvantage for it.

    At the same time, many people prefer that the content be locked and do not feel it a problem. This side is also perfectly reasonable in its beliefs, as it is true that the jobs we are unlocking start off at level 30 (Which is the most compelling reason I have seen given for it.) There are also those who believe Lore is the major reason, however Lore is something that is created by the writers, not made in stone. SE could easily have given the new jobs -outside- of Ishgard if they wanted to, and still maintain continuity.

    In the end, calling people "Whiners" just feels disrespectful to me. People have valid concerns, wants, and desires. They come to the forums to share them. Share in the discussion. :3
