The topic has morphed a bit from the original post, but the intent of the title of the thread was to illustrate how divisive an encounter with a single difficulty mode can be. If you take the entire thread conversation into a single frame, you can really see just how divided people have become regarding the various topics of discussion at play here.

And I don't see why you can't still celebrate fighting Ifrit on Hyper Mode when it's set to the highest difficulty, even if it has different difficulty modes. I have already specifically illustrated and addressed that point of contention already and you people keep missing it. The ability to beat ifrit on the highest difficulty mode is definitely something to celebrate.

Beating IFrit on two-star difficulty mode is not cause for celebration, apart from saying, "Okay, I think I can take on three-star Ifrit now!"
Congratulations! You just killed a nerfed ifrit that was 10k less hp and does 500 less damage on every attack! Now you can try to kill the 8k less hp ifrit that hits for 400 less damage on every attack!

Or you could just stop blaming everything but your own skill and kill ifrit at the difficulty the developers wanted and designed. Seriously, scaling fights would be a huge waste of time and effort for devs. I don't think any of them could read this topic and take anything said seriously.
