Belial: True, point taken. Coming back from a long hiatus I've actually been rather surprised at how much there -is- to do, and I certainly haven't gotten bored yet, especially given their changes to DoL, which I've loved since initial release and has just gotten better.

Compared to other games, though (FFXI, in my experience), and especially at level cap, which the OP's friend's clearly are at if they're attempting the Ifrit fight, in terms of DoW/DoM content, there's not a -whole- lot to do that's not either too difficult for them to be comfortable (Hyper Ifrit, probably Dzemael) or too easy for them to not get bored, which is why I think downscale options for the difficulty might not necessarily be a bad idea. I was using 'content' to refer to a specific subset of content.

(Also, it wasn't a slam on the game, for what it's worth; it's just an observed fact that the game doesn't have -too- much content as it is, which the development team is working to remedy on a daily basis. Which is awesome. I'm planning on paying for the game and grinding classes to 50 on the promise of content to be added in the future. I'm quite patient ^^)
