The vault isn't that hard. All it takes is to pay attention to the surroundings. There is not even one mechanics there that could one-shot anyone for being failed.
The Vault is getting nerfed because DPS players suck - which creates problems for the healers.
Assuming dps/tank don't get hit by mechanics it's just as faceroll as every dungeon, but the mechanics hurt pretty hard.
They did this crazy new thing on the last boss where sometime you have to dodge TWO things at once instead of the only acceptable limit of simultaneous mechanics (one) and since 99% of the playerbase can't just dodge north/south while the knights are charging it needs to be nerfed. Otherwise people wouldn't be able to fail every mechanic and still get their rewards (which would obviously be tragic).
The Vault will get nerfed and everybody will be happy.
On the other hand the prison in Aery... I am almost certain that it will eat 90% of your HP instead of one shotting you. Yet again we dodged the bullet when it comes to dealing with underperforming DPS and everybody will be happily free to yet again blame the healer, who gets out of it barely alive, for letting others die.
I have videos of me on pld, drk and war duoing the last boss in the vault because dps suck. That fight is very healing intensive if the dps are not following the mechanics. That is the only boss from 51 through all three 60 dungeons that hits tanks hard. Most of the time I am using tank cooldowns so I can dps more but on that boss I am using cooldowns so I don't go splat if the heals is not paying attention/trying to keep dps alive.
Garuda MSQ is much harder than HM version. After she jumps there is potential for one shot. If you don't kill plumes fast enough and/or to many aoes hit the stones she can one shot with her special. Then there is the jumps after her special where she is again able to one shot. Garuda HM is basically a zergfest where everyone ignores everything she is doing.
The way the MMO world works now is not about skill. I don't care anymore. I just go play other games if I am looking for a challenge because for me it is more fun to win or lose based on my own skill and not the collective skill of the group... or the group comp.
They better not nerf The Vault! Every time something not faceroll it gets nerfed then complaints about "every thing so easy hurr durr" come in.
I mean come on. THIS SHALL BE A MERCY!
On second thought, it would be hilarious if he said "GIT GUD" or "GET BETTER" right before he said "FILTHY RATS." They missed a hilarious troll opportunity there.
Haha that actually reminds me of a run where I was on sch and said out loud "why the f#*$ is every one taking so much dmg" lol but when sh!t hits the fan is when the adrenaline gets going and it gets fun...sometimes. Overall though vault runs have been fine in my anecdotes( yes I know anecdotal evidence is anecdotal).

The only thing that could be a fix for the vault is to make the chain have a bit of a different colour so it is easier to see. Maybe then the people that just stand around might finally notice it?
