Aren't trials a waste of resources?

I'd nominate the spectator mode for PvP >_>

Hey hey hey, 3 times every other year that feature is used, by thousands of people at once!.

At Fanfest.

And never at any other time.

I like trials so much, I run them just to run them and don't care about the rewards, and I bet I'm not the only one that does. EX trials are also very likely the closest I will get to doing anything endgame since I don't really raid. I was actually disappointed if not outright upset that Siren and Diabolos were put in dungeons.

Did that actually get added to game?

Ayep.
Truth be told, I'm not even sure it's used at Fanfest - I'd imagine people just stream it, since that'd be a lot easier for everyone involved.

It's part of the "E-Sports necessities." Yoshida talked about here:

There's a topic on the PvP forums on that, so I'll leave it at that. It'd just derail the thread >_>

Diabolos got promoted to a raid boss

With that mentality you might as well get rid of dungeons too. After all they're pretty much just glorified trash pulls.

Drops weapons in normal mode trials (low item level).

Drop accessories in extreme mode, and upgrade items for the weapons that make them glow effect and higher item level.

There, now both modes are worth spaming again.

Trials are some of my favourite content.
I think having 3 modes was a little wasteful but they stopped doing that a long time ago.

It'd be imposible to find something we could point at and directly call a waste team resources.
