    I will tell you more, i was able to heal entire party in raid as a lonely healer in veteran rank raid in ESO, and used only 4 buttons because the healing in this game is/was so OP.
    Well, I am sorry that we all aren't as good as you! Even so, a player as bad as me still thinks this game is easy!

    ESO? I didn't know people actually played that game seriously! Only PvP is half decent in that cash sho.. game.

    You are ignoring the point i was trying to tell you, and it was not about me being good or anything like that.

    My point is, the game is as hard as your will to push the boundaries of the game as far as possible, all games are easy to play but a lot of them are hard to play them as decent level, league of legends is super easy game and its not at the same time.
    Its not easy to hit purple/orange performance in this game, as its not easy to speedrun supermario games or any other games. For instance BLM is easy to play, slow CPM but its pretty hard to pull out a decent percentile with him in raids.

    So, I fact checked you here, looked at my performance. Apparently, I pull purple pretty regularly. I am not sure if you are making a joke here! It is easy otherwise I couldn't!

    OF is a meme and it's too grey to be helped. So I'm not going to try anymore.

    Everything is easy if you do it for OVER 7 YEARS, lmao.
    Try out other games.

    Your strawman aside, it doesn't change the fact that anyone who puts forth effort can achieve purples, or higher, in all casual content and likely the first 2 turns of the current savage tier. Your statement that it is difficult is false for the reason I mentioned earlier: the vast majority of the player base doesn't care about their performance. Even just learning the basic fundamentals of this game is enough to get orange in casual content/extremes with little or no job knowledge.
    Thats very humble of you to assume everyone around you is stupid and cannot play the game right way.

    Your conceity walks before you, since you main 3 jobs for over 7 years, who would have thought that you may be able to get them to such high number with so much time of practice.
    Prove me wrong and play War and get orange because it sooo easy apparently not asking for too much war is the easiest tank to play. Since you are claiming that it only requires basic understanding of game mechanics and you dont need to know how jobs works.

    i was grey GNB 5 minutes ago and i am no longer one, guess what happened hehehe

    Can confirm, I am not that good at the game, even after 7 years, and I have quite a bit of ping, and even I managed to pull an orange deeps in casual content, which I don’t use food or pots for.

    I am kinda depressed that my only orange (I think) is on ingles, of all things, lol

    Yep, exactly! I use food if I have it in my inventory, I'll buy them for farming extremes, but regular content? NAAAAH.. I think most players are literally pretty much just autoattacking to do so bad.

    Worth reminding people, because it's easy to lose sight of in a thread discussing how easy everything is and how lots of people don't try, that even a blue log in casual content is more than fine and anything higher is good. It's much easier than Savage, but you still need to avoid mechanics and know your rotation properly to do well. If you do that, great job. And orange is better than the large majority of players at your content level.
    So you can give yourself a pat on the back if you do well, even on casual and if you die on Normal mode or struggle starting off, that's fine as long as you keep trying. We aren't machines, we all slip up and we all have to start somewhere. Take good runs as motivation to keep improving.

    I'd be very happy with a full group of low-green players in an EX trial, if they were friendly, trying their best, communicating and learning mechanics. I'd consider them all decent and could see them going on to do far better in the future.
    The issue is with players who don't want to try. Who can't even be bothered getting the 480 gear before they jump into endgame groups when it's practically handed to them. Who refuse to take advice on rotations. Who fail SSS once and decide it's stupid and overtuned and ignore it. Who don't meld or use food. Who refuse to dps on a healer because healers heal, and so on. Then content is continually made easier and easier to get that type of player through and they get lazier and lazier in response, creating a never ending cycle of increasing simplicity. Those are the bad players.
