You need to let go of your hate young kneebiter.
=] Honestly though, "I hate people who enjoy things differently than I do" isn't a healthy way to go through any of life.
I'll agree that people who brag about something being easy when they took the easy way grates a little, but watching them eat humble pie (and floor!) when they find out it isn't is a little satisfying.
WHERE IS THIS KETTLE EVERYONE KEEPS INTRODUCING ME TO?
Alright, lemme throw my experience with this here. When I first started in FFXIV, the group I went in with could not beat Garuda Normal. This was my first MMO ever, so I didn’t understand that I need both left and right side gear pieces…the only thing I really upgraded was my weapon and chest piece. I was a Monk.
This was March 2017, on Famfrit. Go figure…I’m the only sprout and we couldn’t beat Garuda. That group ended up abandoning after 5 or 6 tries. I don’t even know why because it’s a complete faceroll.
Somebody friendly took me in unsynced and taught me something – mechanics. In five minutes, I learned the whole fight, the importance of keeping my gear up to date, and most especially, how to fight trials. The point is, unsynced has good and bad. Yeah…I do feel like with 8-mans, players should clear it synced before they go after it unsynced, but for players like me, especially DPS who are gated by Titan and Garuda…unsynced can be a good thing if you’re willing to explain how FFXIV trials change after that point.
Regardless…I don’t exactly understand why OP has such a huge issue with it. Players are gonna do whatever they want to do.
Side note: the only other trial that I got the first kill on unsynced with was Mistrel's Ballad: Nidhogg's Rage a few months back...because nobody is doing this fight synced. Doesn't mean we didn't have mechanics - we still wiped once, and most of us were level 70.

Because some people want the challange. UCOB was created for this very purpose, because some people want to test themselves. Not everyone does it for the mounts or glamours. Some people, that's what they play the game for. You're judging the entire playerbase by your own standards and motivations, it's asking to be disappointed. Also, I personally wouldn't called several months to a year or so as being 'a little bit.

This thread is funny, sync and unsync are options that one can freely choose.
If you want to learn the run properly then do the sync run by simply queuing in DF or ask your FC mates to help you to do so!
The unsync version is aimed for those who want to farm for items.
If one made the choice to do unsync on the 1st run then it's their choice.
I don't see any point of having this thread???
No. No. No, and no.
Unsynced has ZERO to do with that. All of those things (skill and cries for nerfs) existed before unsynced was even thought of.
As nice as it would be if everyone could do old stuff synced first time... there just isn't the demand for it. It could take hours of PF or queuing up for it just to get in if you don't have a group ready to go. And if you queue, odds are you get a couple of mentors who promptly bail as soon as they see an extreme Primal.
Also, I just realized something...
Why did the OP feel the need to make a second topic about the exact same thing? Looking for attention? Hoping to gather more sympathetic ears since the first posting didn't work?
Probably both. This poster rings a bit on the "special snowflake" syndrome - doesn't enjoy the thought people can get what they did at all, and especially not if it's gained easier than it was when the content was new. I recall them arguing about the Maid/Butler sets and saying they shouldn't be in the Mog Station later just because "EU had their chance to get them". It's all quite silly.
Well. Then go with them sync and don't drop the party because they didn't kill it at the first try. The problem to do it Sync is the lack of people to do it. No one cares about other players. They don't joint for old trials or raid unless is unsync. Blame the people who don't help, not those who does it unsycn because they have no choice.
