    Why is all new content such a cakewalk?

    When i think back to stormblood and bosses like the mistdragon or the ivalice raids which had some challenging bosses (especially for uncoordinated alliances lol) i really can't help to feel like the content nowadays is just is just...way too easy.

    Just for context, i am by no means some elitist raider who wants every piece of content to be as hard as savage raids. But at least some midcore challenge would be really neat.

    I cleared the new dungeon now multiple times with random groups and we had no wipe at all. The new trial is hilariously easy, we got in fully blind and no wipe. Same with the normal pandemonium raids. And we don't even talk about the alliance raids who are difficulty wise just a huge disappointment, especially after we had the Nier raids.

    I don't really get what is going on with SE lately, feels like we have either just savage/ultimate difficulty or content that is so easy even a blind and drunk moogle could complete it.

    Your assessment proves this is easy content? I don't agree. Next!

    It's more about how i feel, if you feel different about it i am more than happy to hear (or well read in this case) your arguments! If you have some of your own, i mean you must have your own opinion, right?

    I was agreeing with your post till this point. Maybe is just me, but I still see plenty of deaths in those 2 alliance raids, granted I didnt do them very much but still, call them cakewalk I mean...

    The other DPS said they were in a car accident a few days before and I'm not sure why they were playing lol. The healer did the dungeon in a Trust before joining our group, but didn't learn where to stand without the NPCs telling him.

    One time all 4 of us stood in the ONLY spot that would result in a wipe for 3 or 4 AES overlap. If we were standing ANYWHERE ELSE, we would have lived. Got a good laugh out of it.
