The problem is that it demystifies the entire raiding scene and process to the common folk. In early MMOs because raids were so hard few people saw them, and they became something to work toward one day or just imagine. Now all raids are easy enough that everyone can do them just a few days after world first people, and this will happen for all but the laziest people. Then theres nothing else to work on.

WoW is just by virtue of being the eldest, but it's devoid of any sort of actual investment by the devs. It's basically Blizzard's funding for all their other projects while they shit out expacs to bait dead-eyed retards to buying it again.

Because the community is a bunch of paradoxial cunts. Midcore content is a myth that bad players tell themselves. The less progression breaks there are on acquiring new items, the less "content" there'll be. Savage should not be completed by every player on earth with a functioning brain.

Prices on them sky rocket after expansions but you can make pretty decent gil with certain low level crafts and buy crystals. I don't think I've farmed any manually since the beginning of ARR and I don't really need to buy them all that often. All crafts at 70 currently.

Considering how Gordias fucked a lot of people over when it dropped, my guess is they didn't want a repeat of groups getting stuck on Pepsiman or Manipulator for weeks and maybe burn out and stop raiding altogether, maybe 2nd tier will provide a little more challenge.

The game being designed in that fashion and it being """on purpose""" it's not, they just don't get the manpower and money to do more than they currently are since SE figures it wouldn't impact their sub numbers all that much doesn't mean it's not an issue and something WoW is a hell of a lot better at.

Yoshida said that the difficulty curve would "reset" in Omega, it won't be a roller coaster like Alexander.
The first tier is supposed to be easy, the second tier will be "midcore audience" memes, and the final tier will be "not Gordias tier but really hard I promise!".
>>
>>384472167
I imagine it's going to be
>Normal
Easy mode
>Savage
Mid Core
>The Super Savage fight
Poopsock tier that only 1% will clear

They could really fucking stick it to players with Super Savage if they wanted:
>No echo buffs
>No nerfs
>Lowest level item sync is always turned on so it can never be above an i330 level.
>Never allowed to be unsynched
>Overtune it to fuck with full parties needing to play 100% perfect in the maximum ilevel the fight allows in fully melded gear to just barely survive whilst dragging on forever.

I personally hope that it's just one big "FUCK YOU" to people that moan the game is too easy. It should be something like Twintania pre-nerf where only 8 people legit cleared it. These kind of fights should become legend for how unconquerable they are for 99% of the playerbase. Let it drop a title that only unlocks if you're in a party that's full of players that haven't cleared it before (ie if one person has the title already, the rest of the group don't get it) to discourage carry jobs. That way there'll be something in the game worth bragging about.

I'd never be able to beat or most likely attempt it, but I don't care. I just want something that only the absolute best of the best could pull off and it'll never be trivialized by nerfs, echo, unsync or item level cheese.

Mechanically Neo doesn't look that difficult though. It's a huge step up from 1-3S, sure, but it still looks easily doable for the midcore audience with a few weeks of practice. It's essentially Bahamut Prime all over again, simple mechanics you've seen a thousand times already you have to execute in quick succession while keeping up DPS and primarily raid healing. With the current gear, much less the mechanics, but the healing is what's really the issue. But come back in a couple weeks when everyone has a couple thousand more HP and it will be significantly more lenient and doable even by people that aren't at the top of their game.

At early levels, yeah. Later on XIV's crafting is needlessly convoluted so much so that you need each one at max to even do it

There's a reason why depending on your server you'll see the same people controlling the market

Crafting is a separate game entirely

Dont let people trick you. Its different in SB. Nearly 3/4th of the cross class skills for DoH now are obsolete in rotations or are replaced by freebie skills that all of them get. On top of that crafting at 60+ is literally all 100% macros, even at 1-2 star. When you get a crafter to 60+ now you're basically just playing 2 buttons and watching Netflix.

Are you retarded? Look at it. It's simple stacking and spreading to positions you can set way in advance since there is absolutely zero RNG involved. This isn't anything like Manipulator or Melusine where you had to adapt on the fly quite a bit. You can literally make a definite plan for every single attack and your movement and actions will always be the exact same, it's a simple dance, a fairly long one, yes, but a simple dance nontheless. Literally the only thing you have to adapt to in the entire fight (at least down to 20% and it doesn't look like he will do anything new anymore at that point since he just loops) is going to the left or right depending on what debuff color you have on the Sephiroth platform rehash.

Find a guild and start doing Savage.
Altneratively start collecting mounts, minions, triple triad cards, or even orchestrion scrolls. Silly vanity shit meant to waste your time while you are looking for more meaningful things to do.

>>384474551
Each EX primal has a mount, and gear that you might want for glamour purposes (or to break down and make better gear with better glamours)

they tend to try and make older content relevant by doing shit like making relic materials accessible by doing older raids and whatnot.

>ARR released with 3 primals, an actually interesting relic quest with unique bosses, and 5 raid rooms
>2.1 released 4 remixed bosses, a 24-man and more max ilvl gear for more somewhat horizontal progression


Why can't they go back to the 2.0-2.1 formula. Now we only get 2 primals every expac, 1 primal every update, a relic quest that is just korean grinding old content, far more linear progression system, and a raid that's just a boss room.
>>
>>384472891
And the crux is rng gear treadmill and overtuned raids so only people who grind like mad have the gear to clear them. All the other stuff you mentioned can be done in ff14 too + shit like chocobo racing, golden saucer and whatnot. And ff14 actually has a glamour game.

At the end I and another pulled 3.8k and we cleared handily
>>
>>384474898
This is a pretty controversial opinion, but while the patches had a bigger number of fights back then, I'd say the ones nowadays have significantly higher quality
>>
>>384475130
DRK really needs some good AoE. Wish Dark Passage wasn't so shit.
>>
>>384475290

>>
>>384475130
It needs help somewhere, as of 4.05 it is firmly in the cuckshed, there's no reason to take one over PLD/WAR.
>>
>>384475262
MSQ wise they definitely are of much higher quality. I'd argue that as far as primals, dungeons, and all that are concerned there hasn't changed much overall though

Primals and raids are definitely much more intricate now.
The first ex trials are less complex than some current dungeon bosses (although much more punishing of course), and the mechanics in First Coil and LotA are a mess

>>384475072

I was a SCH arguing that SCH was fine in these threads but all I got were fuckwits who kept saying how unplayable SCH was.

WARfags are cancer though, but so far the DPS difference hasn't really widened. WAR does a good bit more than PLD/DRK on dummy but that's because they can apply their own slashing.

>Devs create difficult content
>Obsolete it by providing better gear for easy mode content four months later

That was the whole reason I quit back in 2.1, I did Lab, decided I didn't want to keep coming back six weeks in a row to get everything to just have to do it all over again a little while later.

I think I wouldn't feel as mad if it was more like a relic grind and players had to complete all content up to the latest to get something current. Having a set of artifact armor that you upgraded every step of the way (With rare token drops to fill in a few spots or provide a boost to iLvls for a patch or two) would be a lot more interesting than simply crossing my fingers I wind up with 340 gear this month.
>>
>>384474898
During ARR they had access to 100% of 1.0 content to savage and rebuild so it could be implemented on the the new engine.
Now they are running out of 1.0 things to savage, so they have to rely on other games while actually creating new content around it.
Also,
>an actually interesting relic quest with unique bosses
That is bullshit and you know it, especially the "unique bosses" part. Recycling leveling bosses and putting them in their own instances that have nothing else to offer was a terrible idea.
>>
>>384475679

I'm not even a WARfag, but once people get gear/learn the fights people are gonna wanna phase DRK out for WAR most likely because MUH DEEPS BOSS DIES TWO SECONDS FASTER MUST HAVE.

How do I stop dying as melee DPS?
>>
>>384476302
Stop facing the bosses. Most bosses cleaves your ass
Stay away from the AoE
Pray you don't have a shitty tank
>>
>>384475986

They'd take WAR/DRK in that case. PLD's inability to block during their lengthened holy spirit is actually cancer for some of these fights.

>>
>>384476517

With fully genji gear, the fights will be shortened enough that tanks have 10x the flexibility in terms of cooldowns. V3s white hole and dragon'll probably die before they get more than 3 hits out, v1 and v2 are both most likely to be 5-6 minute fights when speedran. V3s probably around 8 min. At that speed, the "utility" that PLD has is excessive. Intervention is unneeded when a tank swap every 2 crit hits is enough to guarentee awareness or a heavy cooldown for each one.
>>
>>384476523
Outlined here >>384475072

These fags aren't automatic picks abd they cry and scream until they get buffed right back up almost immediately. No other jobs get this sort of preferential treatment, even AST took over a year to get slotted into raids consistently.

Because most people ran PLD/DRK for a month, they aren't going to just switch to WAR on savage release.
>>
>>384476843
All these assumptions.
PLD still hits stronger than WAR even after the nerf while still having shelltron to block 20% damage and get MP back for another Holy Spirit. Meanwhile WAR won't change to defia ce because muuuuh Fell Cleave!

>>384480409
Gallivanting isn't archaic or obscure. Some times people don't use the most efficient basic words to describe what they mean, which is why multiple words can mean the same thing in a technical sense but be modified by tone and context to convey meaning or purpose.

You were saying Gallivanting is archaic and shouldn't be used, or is somehow pretentious, because you personally don't hear it a lot. Many people don't need to crack a thesaurus to find better words to fit what they're trying to say. Assuming someone is a try-hard for having a larger vocabulary promotes ignorance since there is little downside to learning new words and ways to use them throughout your life.

I know there are cannons and dragon killers but only 2 people need to handle it. The rest have to follow under a dragons crotch and avoid getting stomped on. As a DPS it's like hitting a moving Target dummy.

The three biggest mistakes of FFXIV

1. Not having specs. Now DRK is forced to be a tank when it should be able to be both tank and dps depending on your spec.
2. Largely boring races.
3. Having to run on console.

At least the monsters make a effort to move around the field, the aggro is random, and it's possible to die in 2 hits if you're careless forcing you to make the best use of items and your weapon choice.

The reason you socialized in FFXI was not only because it was incredibly solo unfriendly but because there was so much downtime outside of fights and inside of fights.

The issue in my opinion is that they made the first few bosses a bit too easy. Yesterday at 1am after a long ass time I managed to see enrage in my 2nd pull ever for O1S.
I don't think all the budget of a raid should go just on the last few bosses.
Sure, make them accesible to a lot more people, but not this A9S easy again.
At least they finished this tier after I got out of class, unlike last time.

Dungeons are fun this expansion though. Miles better than ARR/HW.
That being said, I agree endgame is empty right now, that's why I took my sweet, sweet time leveling, since I knew 4.0 would be empty at the end.

Really?

I'm not even saying Legion was good, just better than Stormblood. Legion at least had mythic dungeons, world quests, and various things to do out in the world to actually get some mileage out of what they made. Stormblood is just sitting in Rhalgr's Reach jerking off until your next deltascape queue pops.

What's the point of grinding up ilvl once you've completed all the content? I've never understood the need to get Savage weapons because there's nothing to use them on. And when the next tier is released you're just going to replace them anyway so why bother?

If you have zero money and I assume zero squadron buffs, you should start turning in items from dungeons you get for company seals to buy crafting/gathering Manuals from the GC store. It's basically 300k exp that applies whenever you gather anything. If you use them constantly while gathering, you can probably level up just by whacking bushes in an hour or two.

It may be news to you but some people enjoy playing as other roles and learning how to play them well. Mythic+ dungeons is garbage, world quests are overblown FATEs, doesn't change that you do these things just to have a chance at a lego. That "reward" system is precisely why no one likes Legion.

Again, still better than literally nothing. You hit max in SB and there's literally no need to go out into the world or to even run dungeons if you're verity capped and geared.

I don't know whether you're being serious or now but your thin definition of content means that there is virtually no MMO out there that satisfies it. Unless something is a raid, it's not content. Complaining about how short the raid takes in general now is laughable when 1. you haven't cleared it, and 2. the current raid difficulty is a direct product of community outcry and player bitching.

I prefer it this way. It's only bad for the tiny minority of long term hard core raiders and they apparently get their super savage stuff later.
But for someone like me who hasn't touched savage tier content before being able to go in O1s and feel like it's doable has made me want to do some raiding in SB.

It's not just the servers, it's the underlying systems in the game also. I assume that the inventory system and gear system and such were not designed that well and stuff like glamours were glued on top of system that wasn't designed with them in mind.
They would have to redo significant parts of the game to fix that.

People used Turn for Binding Coil since again it sounded a lot better than Coil1, Coil2, Coil3. For Alexander people used Alex1, Alex2, Alex3, instead of the retarded subnames the localization team tried to force on us.

I just think they should do more content like POTD, or add more shit to fates, or add some type of dynamic events, I don't know

as of right now, you log in to do your savage or your roulettes, there should be more type of content that you can do solo or in group to break up the routine , WoW has improved this so much with world quest and mythic+

Because it was the first 8-man raid in XIV. if all three would have been released at the same time, Coil would be known as B1-B13 or C1-C13.

If leveling jobs isn't content, then nothing is. Unless it provides an ilvl bump to satisfy your jimmies, it's not content. You should have seen WoW in 7.0, perfectly appeals to a shit player like you.

Don't think you know what projection means. Don't use big words you don't understand.

You're bad because you're probably the type of player who would have bitched about the raid content taking too long to begin with. If you can't level other roles because you don't want to, you're probably a bottom-tier lowest possible effort raider who's proud of clearing the first two floors of a raid that's barely above ex Thordan.

>Raid difficulty is measured in skills and not gear

Yeah raid in WoW is so much better when it's literally impossible to beat the raid when it first comes out because you need to grind gated gear before that.

Dev team literally do not know anything about MCH to even remotely "buff" it. Lowering the cost of attacks to Overheat charge was NOT the problem with the job to begin with and does not solve the problems the job currently has.

Dude, 8 people already beat this raid? Yawn... not even worth my effort now.

>>384488782

You're not supposed to clear content with low ilvl gear though. With our current ilvl you should be hitting enrage as soon as the monster has 10% HP but people down it with enough time to spare. Back on T5 Coils everyone was forced to spam potions to do enough damage.

I like really hard final bosses, but I'm scared Yoshi will just make gearing up more of a bullshit grind than actually making some interesing mechanics. I'll take Omega over HW's bullshit, I like playing multiple classes and not having gear upgrades locked exclusively behind hunts.

>My opinion doesn't matter because I didn't poop-sock every fight with a static full of other autists
These fights have been out for a fucking day and I've already cleared two of them casually PUGing while jerking off and playing Resident Evil REmake in-between. This is less of an indictment of me than it is of the fucking game. It's sad and pathetic.

Yoshi says that XIV isn't meant to be played exclusively, I guess he's right. You're just supposed to ignore it for weeks at a time until the next set of fights come out.

Normal mode sprouted from people complaining about Coil being cut off from the majority of players due to the last turn stopgaps.

Everything about the current raid is a result of the community, not the devs. Difficulty, normal mode, midcore players poison everything they touch.

>>384489827

Pretty much, until Super Savage. Savage is now a heroic raid until the end of XIV's lifetime. Get used to it.
>>
>>384489969

And remember it's not enough to just know the mechanics, you have to keep you're DPS up as well. If you're having to pause while you move/situate then you're doing something wrong. I used to have that issue where I couldn't multitask. I'd know the fights inside and out, but whenever a mechanic popped up I would just do the mechanic and half-ass DPS meanwhile. That's no good

>Because you have no idea what actual progression and raiding is. Savage used to be something that took months, not a day. Basing your opinion off the easiest tier of the entire game is hilarious.
Again, projection holy shit. The problem is that only 4 fucking fights matter in the entire fucking game as of right now. Every other bit of content is secondary or even tertiary.
>>
>>384490593

There was no serious gear check. That's the thing. It was entirely a performance check. A4s was cleared in i190 by CN/JP people who knew the strats. Midas was also done in 3 weeks or so and had no serious gear checks either, you needed VIT melded crafted accessories but that's been the standard since 2nd coil.

Because a lot of that fucking time was waiting for cooldowns you idiot. If they did 200 attempts one day they'd be waiting for cooldowns for 500+ minutes if not longer. Hence they'd need more breaks and take it to day two, three, four and longer.

The best way to prog back then was just pull and see more mechanics. As far as I remember, a3s is the only one that needed an early Living Dead. A4s had the dps leg checks but you could just save whatever cds you had to kill the leg if you pulled beforehand.
