B. Able " I Understand the importance of keybinding,macros and guides, but sometimes i still unable to remain calm during heavy movement and damage mechanic"

LOL WHAT?

What the he'll does keybinding macros and guides honestly have to do with being an able player?

I killed Sophia without a guide. I killed zurvan without a guide. Susan no guide. Laksmhi no guide. Orngoing the other way back in arr coils no guides. No special keybinds or macros for any of them. Unless you count /ac shirk <2> or something similar.

To be honest needing a guide or macro prompts suggests you are actually the opposite of able because you can't figure things out for yourself..

C. Hardcore. " Mastering what can be mastered,trying to group with like-minded people to beat hardest encounter, people sometime missunderstood me and yet it was people like me that create guide"

Again what?
I like to master my jobs and push the limits of there capabilities. I'd like to think I'm pretty good at the jobs I play. But I really don't care for the hardest encounters or content simply because what's hard today is face roll easy tomorrow. So there's no lasting sense of prestige (for want of a better word) in getting anything done. Way back in ARR for example the final witnes title was rare. And it had a sense of prestige when you set it. Now though can rofl stomp the whole thing and get that title with no difficulty at all.

So I just don't bother with the hardest stuff cos its not worth it. Yet in comparison on my ps4 there's games I've bust my ass off on just to get a trophy my friends haven't got. Because even years later if they want that trophy they'll have to do exactly the same challenge I did. And not just rofl stomp it.

If I had to describe myself as a gamer in FFXIV. I'd say I'm a highly skilled but highly unmotivated player. Today's challenge is tomorrow's cake walk and just not worth bothering with as a result.

I'm not hardcore I don't give a dam about melding or BIS. I really don't care if one 320 ring has slightly better secondaries than another. because there's no point i'll just use whatever has the highest I level. there no point in going after BIS or melding cos it'll be replaced in no time at all. oh hey the Lakshmi ring has better secondaries than the omega one. who cares i't'll be replaced by creation in a week or three.... why no melds? cos i'll be tossing the gear in less than a month why waste my money on something temporary. you wouldn't rent a house and pay for double glazing windows loft and wall insulation. and an extention knowing in 6 months you'll be moving out..... and get no return on your investment...

There's been discussions about players wanting the new super savage to be kept at it's level so you can never over gear or unsync it with the next expac. I genuinely hope they do this cos then finally something in the game will have a lasting sense of prestige. it will be the same difficulty in 4 years time as it is on day 1.
