Actually, people will be low-manning that content now. Many were able to low man it before, just were forced into having full parties. Don't be surprised to see some groups in the PF looking for specific makeups because all ARR old content has been un-gated and we can go in as we like now - solo or in smaller groups.

It's not the end of the world like you are making it out to be, and frankly, this content couldn't stay relevant forever. It's time for new raids.

oh, and this is NOT FFXI.

That game was stagnant because things were relevant for TOO FREAKING LONG (I'm looking at you, okotes).

Don't even bring such things up to give SE any bright ideas.
