As someone who also started in stormblood what I have to say is I’m sorry but the difficulty is just fine. As you play through the game the difficulty is supposed to get harder because you are supposed to improve that’s the point of battle content.
New telegraphs are very fresh and keep the game exciting and with the honey bee fight a little bit of chaos can be appreciated.
Is it casual content yes but it’s not braindead content it’s made for casual people to have something slightly more difficult to do that’s why it has always been Normal trials> alliance raids> normal raids> EX/Savage.
Coddling players isn’t the way to go the players need to learn dying is 100% okay getting a vuln is okay but learning for the next time it happens is what should be happening not complaining because you don’t like it or can’t react fast enough. Learn attack names and such I know plenty of people who are on the casual side who look up guides just because the wanna put in the effort and get better and I know people with mental and physical disabilities that play the game and do what they can for themselves to improve and make the game and content more enjoyable for themselves that is not on the devs.
