try making new character you outlevel everything by just doing MSQ!
And on top of that story i read and do i went to The Thousand Maws of Toto-Rak cutscene before final boss and while doing it rest of my group i am tank even btw somehow killed bosss and when cutscene ended duty completed ye ..
How can they even start while someone is watching ... /should have stop if not all skip to not be able to start it ..


Are you on one of the "preferred" servers where your exp is boosted? I made an alt character on my server which doesn't have the boost and didn't use any of the exp boost gear and I didn't out-level the MSQ much at all. I had some friends level up on my server and there were a few times the MSQ got ahead of them and needed to grind some dungeons or PotD for 1 level.try making new character you outlevel everything by just doing MSQ!

I tried an alt and I was almost 50 before hitting the end of ARR. After doing a few of the starting area quests I stopped at level 6 or 8. I was so far ahead I knew I would not need any other quest. So before 10 I had only done job quest and MSQ. I also skipped any fates. But I did not take off any xp increasing gear pre 30 and I did not take off aetheryte earring. No preferred world bonus.

I'm surprised that this isn't brought up, but what if you are put into a party without AoE buttons yet for their job whether a healer or DPS? That tank pulls, no one doing AOE as they don't have it yet and the tank gets upset that pulls are taking too long due to no aoe. Then the tank quits as they don't have aoe or if it is just one person without AoE they kick that person who needs the dungeon for MSQ. Is that what is wanted? I mean for the very first guildhest I think only archanist may have AoE for it other than the tank.
Another thing, any WHM below 66 doesn't have a shield for the tank. Do you kick that WHM?



(1) most ppl start the fight by mistake, since dropping off the edge causes a weird effect to suck u into the boss. even though ive played for years, i still occasionally do this by mistake myself, as do most ppl i know.
(2) why would it matter if ppl do the fight while ur in cutscene? youre going to end up doing this fight 9999 more times with your roulette, and its nothing special to see/do either. if a player doesnt know how to do their rotation, does that mean the rest of the PT isnt allowed to do their rotation? if you get carried, u get carried. the real question is why SE put a cutscene in a dungeon at all. it goes against the flow of the content.

Clearly quests and story lets you go on adventure to fight big badddies then you get to end and fighting big baddie which is long time dead before you even starting fight with him , yup makes so much sense.
And saying you can do it 2nd or 5000Th million time lol what a nonsense.
If i go 2nd time same happends will you go and tell me go it 3rd time LOL. if you think that makes any sense then you are lost and clearly have no clue how story flow works and how it makes sense.


There's this nifty little thing in settings that lets you skip previously played cutscenes. That way, you can be the one to jump right in the next time and ignore the others waiting on the CS!



As Jeeqbit mentioned, they can't scale the enemies up to your level because the other players in the group could all be different levels. Having your abilities taken away feels bad/awkward, but if they gave you a whole kit that the content wasn't designed to accommodate it would be even more of a faceroll than it already is. I do wish they would rebalance some of the encounters though, especially the bosses. It's like the mechanics just don't even matter anymore, and not only does that make it less fun but also gives new players a bad impression.
I agree, and thankfully they did this for the dungeons at the end of the ARR story. They should probably do it for some of the other dungeons with longer cutscenes too.
