I am not someone who "rushed" to endgame. I've been busy juggling my life, my WoW raiding (which just kicked into high gear a week after FFXIV dropped), and playing this game. Yet I was able to get to 50 over a week ago (I think it may have been two) without playing for 12 hours at a time. If I can do it, so can you. It's your own damn fault if you're not to 50 by now. And I don't understand how you could be "not geared enough" at this point. I'm completely geared out from AK runs, and I will have enough tomes to buy my first piece of AF +1 by the end of the week. I didn't even get to do the "speed runs" and I'm still doing just fine for gear. So I really don't understand this idea of, "omg, I might not be able to participate!" I could participate - if I wanted to. But I don't want to put forth that amount of effort when I'm also balancing a raiding schedule in WoW.

I also still don't understand this rage on the part of raiders who are already clearing the current content at the very idea that some "casual scrubs" might be able to see the content they've seen. Dear lord, the idea that people will eventually get to see the content they paid for. How dare Square. *eyeroll*
I'm already 50 and working towards DL but I don't see your line of thought? And anyway, even if I wasn't, it's my fault if I'm not doing endgame 3 weeks from the start? It's mandatory that someone has to bring a DoW/M to 50 to enjoy the end game instead of working on a crafter or a gatherer from time to time? And what about players who didn't start playing yet? You say you didn't rush but instead it's what you did.
