Here we go again

Being an older gamer, been playing since ff14 came out, Meso Terminal is unplayable for me on the 4 bosses that chain to you encounter due to the dodge mechanics firing to quickly.It would be nice to have a easier mode choice when doing it with the npc's to "progress thru the story" as I feel it's better to npc it first so people aren't upset if i die as a healer. I am not asking for an easier mode for que'ing just for doing it with npc's heck i don't need any loot in an easy mode option either but i do feel that we all should have content we can get thru if its mandatory for the story.

I can gather some of my buddies and help you get through it. Let me know if you're interested.

100% agree. The second boss marks my endpoint with FFXIV.

Some people are getting a nasty shock in 30 years time.

If you hop over to Primal I'd be happy to help and could probably get some others to as well.

That'd probably be better than having to jump to OCE for me to help them. Hope your schedules align!

I did that with trusts so it reset when I died, what happens with that fight when someone dies? It didn't let the trusts help me with mine when they killed theirs, does it only let you fight them if the person dies? Or were the trusts just not programmed to help?

I just want to say you're not alone in this. I struggled like hell with it - fortunately had a really patient Scholar, and a RDM, who were both willing to rez me when the mechanics got the better of my inability to react as quickly as required.

I haven't even been able to face the new Alliance Raid yet and, to be honest, I'm not certain I will engage in it. A pity to feel the need to skip over new content, but from what friends who've already played it (and are far better at the game than I am) have said it's challenging and absolutely full of DDR mechanics. In which case if I were to engage in it I'd be A: a burden, B: very much dead the majority of the time and C: miserable. And what's the point in that?

Sadly, as much as I love the game I'm starting to think it isn't for someone like me anymore - particularly considering how I'm finding I actively avoid the newer content.

If you're on Aether or Primal I can help!
