Nerf Chaotic

[sindriiisgaming]

gona be real this fight is ridiculous. please nerf some of the brutally punishing mechanics like no time to react on aeros/death or death debuff and also the absurd body checks

i cleared this fight with relative ease after only 3 hours, but im gona real. its a total mystery to me why this content passed the greenlit. its far to punishing for sprout raiders and damn near unclearable in pf. even farm parties cant do it.
it has also brought out the absolute worst in the pf. I actually got kicked for a From a "from start" pf for dying a few times to prog on p1. its absolutely crazy
I'm sick of hearing people say "oh well maybe next time they'll fix it" NO. Nerf it. its just out not even a week. it can still be changed.

Where do you get sprouts in lvl 100 content…

I thought it, you said it

The PF farm party thing he brings up is true though.

A character has new adventurer status until they reach the current expansion and have 300 hours of play time. 99.99% of sprouts in endgame content are story skipped alts.

Thats actually something which isnt hard, i saw many many sprouts in raiding content because not everyone cares about the 0 8 15 story final has and just want to skip to endgame

I mean there are returners and then there are people that level jump. The former aren't really sprouts but some people regard them as such.

On another note, I am kind of surprised they didn't nerf it as well. I wanted to go farm it for gear but finding groups is a pain.

Why should we nerf content that was confirmed to be Savage level by devs?

That doesn't make much sense.

it was only confirmed to be savage at the very last minute in a passing remark by mr ozma. it was never advertised as such on the keynotes. and the majority of the community agrees its a far to heavy ask of the party finder. i don't understand why everything needs to be baby's first dungeon or "ill give you special cells" what we wanted was BA level content. what we've got is another delubrum reginae savage

Actually if you look at this post:

Interview with Yoshi-P, Claims Savage difficulty:
https://www.pcgamesn.com/final-fanta...hida-interview

Official PLL Digest - Claims Savage difficulty
https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/512088

Unofficial Translation of PLL - Claims initial goal was Extreme, but it's tuned closer to Savage 1/2 when factoring in 24 people. Note: this is the only place that mentions Extreme. Not that I'm saying it wasn't said but even then there's acknowledgement that it was tuned higher.

It was mentioned 4 months ago to be Savage tier in an interview with Yoshi-P and as recent as Nov 11th PLL again to be Savage level. At least 1 month and 20 days before the content released in the most recent case. How is that last minute?

Locking it behind current Extreme will go against part of what they said they wanted to do, though. Ignoring how they fully intended this to be an Extreme level encounter.

Read above. This has already been debunked. The official digest on the forums states Savage level specifically. Even the post from 4months ago, states Savage level as well. The only time we hear about their intentions were "Extreme" was from the unofficial translation of the PLL, and even then it acknowledges that the content was confirmed to be savage level in the end.

Would make sense if you read beyond the word "nerf," considering op listed their reasoning.

- please nerf some of the brutally punishing mechanics like no time to react on aeros/death or death debuff and also the absurd body checks

- its far to punishing for sprout raiders and damn near unclearable in pf. even farm parties cant do it.

This is their reasoning. They are arguing for a savage tier fight to not have body checks, be less punishing for sprout raiders and make it more easily clearable in PF by nerfing aspects of the fight.
How does that make sense to do such for Savage-tier content when the devs already confirmed it would be of such difficulty?
