    I am not undergrared !!! Healers 370, casters 369, tanks/physical DPS 367 ... the fight doesn’t require any skill or knowledge about how to play properly your class, you just dodge dodge so that’s it. Ergo doesn’t look like a ffxiv content and It take ages to complete and hundred of wipes ...

    To be fair, expert dungeons don't require any skill and knowledge about how to play your job properly and people still fail even those. You just dodge things, AFK, and watch netflix and you can still get a pass somehow! Amazing!

    Remember the bees of Amdapor keep pre nerf? You had to beat the demon wall and the stinging bees before you died and he crushed your party at the starting gate. Good times.

    Yup.

    I still see people fail the first boss in Quarn normal. Seriously, there's just not enough things that teach players how to properly play their jobs and be actually skilled as well, and then when they get towards higher-end content, this kind of thread happens.

    As I said in an earlier post the design of the boss really appears to be intended to be done with a different set of mobility options than is offered to us in FFXIV. This does not make it impossible to do, but it does make it feel clunky. I feel this way about both normal and EX. The easier version of the encounter doesn't remove the feeling of clunkiness for me. I think the idea is cool but poorly executed.

    I honestly think giving players abilities that you'd typically find in a Monster Hunter game (and no a potion does not count, please...potions are hardly unique to that genre) would have done a lot to bridge the gap between the two games and make the encounter feel more like a marriage of the two games rather than something that feels like a poorly thought out copy paste of a boss.
