    You have no Savage / Extreme / Ultimate content...

    ... so what do you do to fill the time?

    Assume for a moment that you do not have access to the higher end group content anymore. No particular reason why, we're just playing hypotheticals here.

    So what do you do in game to occupy your time?

    Basically you're asking what keeps 80% of the player base active?

    I never really did them much, so ehh.

    I try to get my weekly 450 tomes.

    I've been trying to max out all my jobs. Just got done with that.

    I've been working on finishing anima weapons. Just got done with that, so now I have all 2.x, 3.x, and 5.x (the only available state of them thus far, anyway) relics. Not fond of the prospect of doing 4.x relics; Pagos kind of killed it for me.

    Going to keep working on those 2k mentor roulettes.

    Want to finish Rathalos EX (which is made quite a bit more trivial now with level 80) so that I don't have to carry these damn scales anymore.

    Also, work on tank achievements.

    Craft, grind weapons, gather, roleplay, scream into the void and contemplate my existence. You know, the usual.

    Personally, I work on achievements, collecting stuff and spending hours taking screenshots. All of which are better with friends.

    You think 80% of the player base is in EX or higher content?

    . . .

    Yeah, no.

    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]

    Level up other classes, do relics, old beast tribes I missed back in ARR/HW, chat in LS, craft, gather, and failing all that leave the game until I feel like playing again to go play something else like i'm doing right now playing the Trials of Mana remake Square released.

    EDIT: Oh I also forgot to mention mount farming.

    I think they mean exactly the opposite
    80% ISN'T doing ex or higher hence the question being what those people spend their time on
    Idk if that's what the actual numbers look like but yeah
