Sure there's some like the strafing runs... but a lot of it isn't and if you're not geared almost everything will one shot kill you. Sure the Ivalice Raids had some pretty complicated Mechanics in places especially in Orbonne, but its nothing even close to Copied Factory.
Yesterday's run was pretty terrible. We had a lot of unexperienced players and newbies, and it was a real slaughter. We even wiped to Engel's adds.
It's really hard to see the mechanics when you have others spell effects on tho. But overall, I still think CF is easier than Orbonne. There's nothing as punitive as Cid for example.
Today, I think I'll work for a bit then do my roulettes. And since it's monday, I'll spend the rest of the day crafting. I'm 2 jobs away from omnicrafter ! Yay \o/
