Variance in player skill is hurting FFXIV's itemization design.

[Kallera]

Zosia , Gordias savage came about because of the demands of the raiding tier. And in order to keep gordias its pie in the sky reward SE had to screw with other non raid content. The raiding scene was hurt the most, but they were the only ones affected by it.

As long as SE looks to favor raiding over everything else without other content on the wings, non raiding content can suffer because of it.
