I do feel for the casual playerbase that feels very left out of this patch, and unfortunately its been this way every X.1 patch as long as the MMO has been around. Despite having this feedback every time about there being very little repeatable/grind content for the average player, they're still doing it all these years later.

I do hope SE eventually learns to move the release tables around to have something more mass-appealing in X.1 in the future, because the player's feelings about the casual content drought only gets worse as the time between patches gets longer.
