That's a good write up, sure, I'll admit, FFXI had a lot of range, FFXIV had a LOT of range, I was so incredibly unlucky with drops that I cleared two coils cycles, and while we farmed the subsequent weeks, I NEVER got to see what I wanted, I never got the Monk weapons EVER before the next raid dropped, Heavensward did improve on something, adding these tokens from Alex Savage, and actual good improvements, very good for them.

But you automatically dismiss all those events you listed in a sense that FFXIV should regress and not improve over those examples you listed, sure Kings where the true hardcore content as only super dedicated players did it, it doesn't mean that if they go back to Dynamis, they are gonna have the same Range, range is range, you could get all the drops you wanted on one night in dynamis, or you wouldn't at all, that's luck, but it absolutely doesn't mean the content was bad or was boring.
