It's people leaving (especially tanks) that actually makes any of the raids harder than they need to be, not the raids themselves.
    That's why I asked for an exp buff for raids that usually take longer, over here http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...to-be-adjusted

    Right now it's a bit more efficient to leave orbonne, do fates / afk for 30 mins and ilvl cheesing Syrcus than to clear Orbonne.

    It takes 3x as long for the same rewards as Syrcus.

    And tbh, even if the run goes smooth as silk, it still takes way longer to complete than LotA/ST.
    Well, I'm sorry that happened to you and it's happened to me as well (though not often and not lately), but I take that as part of my enjoyment in playing the game. Sometimes, you just have to try again while trying to enjoy the ride in the meantime.

    I guess I don't usually think how long something will take unless I have an appointment to keep. I play the game to play the game, not to spend a certain amount of time to do something.
