I have already lost faith in the developers when PotD came out and you could beat it with 4 dps.

The only compelling content is raids and ex trials, which both only reward gear that will 100% be obsolete in 1 to 2 patches. The whole structure of endgame is just rotten at this point. Endgame gear needs to at least last the whole expansion, and nerfs need to stop happening, to get people motivated to start putting in effort again.

They designed PotD this way on purpose, so that even dps could level quickly. It's still much harder to do without a healer and tank though at higher levels. The endgame gear is "obsolete" in 3-4, roughly. 1-2 is a inaccurate. Never if you use them for glamour. The structure is that of a modern MMO, aka the gear treadmill. You get more powerful as the expansion progresses. No amount of nerfs will encourage people who don't want to raid or do Ex modes...to do raids or Ex modes. People usually wait for the next expansion to do that content if they aren't interested in it when it's current. No nerf required, they simply come back OP. Echo will help, but if there's mechanics that need to be done, no amount of echo will save a group who refuses to do them. It all comes down to what people prefer to do, or not do. Not everything has to be about gear either.
