    FFXIV Devs: Please STOP punishing normal players for others breaking the rules.

    In the recent live letter it was said that (regarding Waymarks- translated):

    Waymarkers:
    Players will have a total of 8 waymarkers
    Waymarkers can no longer be placed during combat for PVE
    You can save preset locations for waymarkers
    Presets can be copied from other players
    There are 5 presets available

    This has been a response in which certain players were using a 3rd party program to automatically place waymarkers in fights.

    So instead of going after the people abusing the system, SE decides that scorched earth is the better response and to completely change the system. This isn't the first time this has happened either.

    SE makes desynth easier! Bots abuse the system and get Fieldcraft Demi's really easy. SE's Solution: Time to nerf Demi Materia.

    Players were skillfully managing Eos/Selene and healing two players between their pets and their casted heals so SE decided to remove the ability of players to manage the pet casts.

    You're punishing 97% of the player base for something maybe 3% does.

    Solution I've seen and liked: Make this change only affect Savage and Ultimate since that's supposed to be the "hardest" content.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
