Its great to see people beating the new content within the first week of release, but I'm not in a hurry, I never bother with spending my gil or time on overmelded craft gear since its worthless once i get a loot drop to replace it, but different strokes for different folks.

Typically, the issue with a particular instance in the beginning is that we're still learning the mechanics, then once they become muscle-memory we are able to maximize our dps (not talking about parsing for 3 minutes to get some crazy 500000000dps result that doesn't mean anything for a fight that's over 10 minutes other than to brag about fully buffed DPS that discounts skill and potion CDs).
