This is why Hardcore Content SUCKS.

Dear SilvertearRen,

[Removed by Moderator according to the FINAL FANTASY XIV FORUM Guidelines.] They made these NMs TOO easy. 3-5 min pops?? That is a joke. There is nothing wrong with being a casual player, but you should be rewarded as such. You can't be a casual player and get the same gear as hardcore players. There needs to be difficulty in obtaining gear to make it challenging to the people who are willing to put in the time and effort. That is the only thing that differentiates hardcore and casual players. This is also just a simple fact about MMO's. There is easy and hard content to please everyone. Moral of the story - You can't expect to get good gear if your not going to put in the time and effort so stop whining.
