Normal mode raid is a scam. I refused to grind it for Creator and Deltascape tiers, and will continue to refuse to run it now that we're on Sigmascape.

The gear is the same level as the crafted set, except worse because you can't overmeld it. In the time I spend waiting for queues and trying to out roll people - to say nothing of the weekly restriction - I could easily gather up and craft a couple of sets of gear.

I quit caring about the 24-man stuff too once they dumbed down secondaries/removed accuracy. No point bothering with it if you've been keeping up with Tomestones.

I don't have a problem with RNG, just with my perceived worthlessness of the gear in question.
