    Bluntly, it pretty much is a revolution. MSQ was gatekept for a time with the Steps of Faith until people cried about not getting stepped on, or reading dialogue boxes in front of them so it got nerfed into the floor. Heavensward in particular was an exceedingly difficult to play expansion because the floor got raised about six levels from ARR. Was fun for some but not for a whole lot of people, including me and I raid regularly.

    The only thing I can think of is having the trust dungeon be the bare minimum line, with xyz boss having an enrage mechanic. Enrages do need to be a little less forgiving if you want that in dungeons, though enrage is honestly a boring mechanic for players in general. Even a stricter time limit on solo trials would be a decent upgrade to skill floor, though we will have to see. It is a difficult question because there has been nearly six years of coddling to even lower than bare minimum effort both by community and by the devs themselves.

    Note that I'm not saying all content should not have been nerfed. The apology raid in Heavensward was rightly there because the game was exceedingly difficult then with the new mechanics being introduced on top of difficulty with optimization.
