Last Heavensward 3.0 Battle (no story spoilers)

[Vhailor]

I say this as a small plea for Stormblood - SE made a massive, spectacular mistake in not iLvl capping the final Heavensward 3.0 Trial.

What could have been an enduring, spectacular fight is reduced to an utter face-roll if more than a party member or two has current end-game gear (only to worsen upon the release of 4.0). It really marred the ending of an otherwise-wonderful storyline.

I can understand allowing for a bit of gear-padding so that everyone can get past, but this went way, way too far. Terrible decision. I sincerely hope that Stormblood's conclusion, whatever it may be, isn't also rendered obsolete by such short-sightedness.

Or you know you could get a group together in gear level appropriate and beat with minimum gear level if you want it that way. Don't force it on everyone else.

Are you talking about Zurvan?

Nope. Zurvan was a side quest of the warring triad, not part of the main story.

So OP is talking about Baelsar's Wall?

They mean the last trial of 3.0, no patches.

You must be bloody joking. It's an 8-person fight that's part of the storyline; every other storyline mission is (appropriately) iLevel capped; it's got a low-enough Tomestone total that nobody in their right mind would farm it. If you're seriously arguing that the final fight of an entire expansion should be so rendered so easy by over-gearing that two or three newcomers can literally /sit in the middle and win easily, then you really shouldn't be playing anything more advanced than a free game on a cell phone.

No; Singularity Reactor is the final Heavensward 3.0 fight.

The fight has always been faceroll. Though I do agree on syncing ilvl

Wait... are you posting from an alt? Because from the looks of it the character you're posting from doesn't have a single job at 60...

Also Idk if you tried the Minstrel's Ballad version of that fight when it was relevant, but it was HARD. Easily the hardest single trial in the game. (It was meant to bridge the difficulty gap between Gordias 2 and 3 Savage, which was massive.) The story is supposed to be accessible for everyone, which is why Singularity Reactor was so easy.

The only content that has ever had ilvl syncs has been dungeons. All of the 2.0 Trials, and the 2 8 man story dungeons were unsynced.
