It is not being gullable it is actually enjoying content that is not designed to be throw away or bash your head against the wall for 500hrs to clear it.

I do not understand how anyone can enjoy raiding (if you can even call it that) in XIV. Oh BOY I can't wait to get on to spend 4hrs tonight getting 1/2 more of a phase into the 9 phase boss.... WoW such fun........................

Oh and did I mention after the 300-500 hrs spent... your gear is worthless in probably 2-4 months after you get it. So enjoy wasting all your time on "Vanity gear" in the end. But do not worry in the next even patch you can bash your head against the wall all over for new gear... that is the same Garbage with a few more stats on it.

SUCH FUN!

Who are the gullible ones... The people who are trying to get gear that will permanently better your character. OR People who are getting gear that is vendored in 3 months while spending = amounts of time getting said gear.
+100. Well said Xatsh.

I, too, would much rather farm Sky or Sea than do Alexander Savage any day of the week. Easily.

I'd take the Multi-Objective, Multiple Side Paths / Side Bosses and layout of Dynamis-Xarcabard than any raid in FF XIV.

It's far more meaningful and encouraging if you know you're raiding week-in and week-out (like we are now anyways, like we did for months and months in Coil), if those drops will be useful for more than 2 - 4 months after you acquire them.

It's absolutely GARBAGE that players who dropped Millions of Gil and countless hours for the Relic in XIV has a weapon whose usefulness was about ~2 months every few patches, before being outdated.

It feels like crap that you finally get the BiS Coil Gear to drop, only to have it invalidated the next major patch (w/ Item Level increase).

"Congrats" on wasting months and months, to have gear that was best for... 2 - 4 months.

You're just on a hamster wheel, playing a Skinner box that Yoshi P is lazily copying from World of WarCraft:

I really hope we change the core end game in the near future for the betterment of Final Fantasy XIV.
