If Yoshida put me in charge of Endgame, here's what I would do:

SAVAGE PROGRESSION:
-

STEP 1.) Unlock the quest

>Clear story-mode version of raid
>New quest marker appears to unlock Savage
>Savage quest is -NOT- a simple turn-in that unlocks savage in 10 seconds, and instead has actual content
>One of the objectives of the quest to unlock savage is to beat the stone,sky,sea dummy
>The second objective is another instance, a version of Beginner's Trial called Master Trial to make sure you know your role.
>Savage trial unlocks for that ROLE ONLY. (Dps, Tank, Healer). To enter savage on a different role you have to re-unlock the trial for that role

STEP 2.) Matchmaking system

>Each trial measures your progress in grades. 25% (Bronze Medal), 50% (Silver Medal), 75% (Gold Medal), 100% (Ribbon)
>The matchmaking will ONLY match you with players of similar fight experience
>None of this 'practice second phase' bullshit


Bam. Endgame is fixed. There is no longer any issue with Savage raid progression on western servers. This literally FIXES all problems with Endgame.

Go ahead, try to challenge my idea. I'll wait.

Coil always had a high fucking barrier of entry

Alexander savage does not. A4S is not required for A5S, and A8S will not be required for A9S.

The shitters begged for a story mode version of endgame raids. Good. We gave it to them. Keep them there

So you set a system that'll piss off all the incompetent players who'll have trouble getting through it, okay, cool, maybe some of the ones who don't unsubscribe will get good.

Except now all the competent players have to jump through hoops, probably multiple times throughout each expansion, to be allowed into content. To make matters worse, they'll have to do that on each role in time with their respective raid schedules and inconvenience their static when the situation calls for any changes.

This not mentioning how often people can clear basic checks in the first place only to fail in actual content.

And then you have a matchmaking system that'll inevitably segregate the impatient community further and make for more difficult queues. At best, we might see a minor decrease in frustrations with getting players that don't know phases, at worse, we're seeing no difference in competency since there're an endless amount of factors contributing to individual phase clears and players never learning shit because any decent player that starts late is stuck with bronze medal shitters as the community rushes past them.

Fucking midcore ruins everything.

Eh, being white is kinda her thing... though she almost ended up like this when I was making her in the benchmark back before Heavensward came out...

I decided against it though because cat Velvet was black and with au ra I was limited to a dark blue instead... So white lizard Velvet was made instead of Dark Excellent Velvet lizard...

>>155577841
Y'know, funnily enough I never knew you had to clear the previous coil to enter the next one, because I had them cleared long before the release of the newest one either way.
With how much easier Coil was than Alexander, I'd hardly call it a "high barrier of entry", either way. All coil turns were easily puggable in PF even on western servers. I was doing weekly clears of T1-T4 and T6-T8 in PF before I had a static to finish the last fight for either of those turns. T10 and T11 were also easy to pug. T12 was a little annoying to pug.
The last fights were obviously quite a challenge to pug with randoms, but still doable. I often joined T13 PF parties after being done for the week with my static to help others out, and cleared quite a lot in PF.

Which brings me to my actual point, why Alexander is so cancerous to pug.
It's not because there's no barrier of entry, it's because SE is making these raid tiers for the top tier players that have been playing the game since launch. Each new tier has more mechanics than the last. New raids are made for people who have already seen every other mechanic in the game in the past 3 years. That's why it's so hard to pug shit nowadays, a lot of people are new and can't just up and learn something like A4S or A8S from scratch because they don't have the same experience as someone who's been raiding for years.
It was less of an issue teaching someone T9/T13 from scratch than A4S/A8S is.

>>155578669
Do you have a race preference? Futa okay?

>>155577841
Fucking LOL

The "raiding scene worked in Coil" because Coil was designed at a difficulty level that was actually appropriate for the entire top 10-15% of the playerbase, instead of being custom-tailored for the top 1% and then being doable-but-more-trouble-than-it's-worth to the next highest 2-3%.

All this KEEP THE CASUALS OUT REEEEEEEEEEEEEE shit you're going on about is the exact opposite of what will help the game or its raiding scene.

The issue in this case specifically, is precedent.

You want to know the actual real true way to make raiding really relevant in a game without necessarily making it more accessible or having harder barriers to try to prevent burdening more skilled players with lesser skilled?

One, make it easy and accessible to get better, not just make things easier.
Two, design content that remains rewarding and relevant even a few patches later, i.e. horizontal progression.

But that's incredibly more hard and time consuming to do, and there's not as an easy strict formula to follow.

its easy and accessible to get better. the tools are there. the more challenging content is there. people dont want to get better though. if someone can't clear something, its not THEM its the game or the other people they're with. its a rare thing when someone hits a wall and goes 'well i better practice' and even more rare when they actually take something away from their hopeless and endless wipes to whatever the current ex primal is.

Who's character would you kiss the feet of?

It's easy for the players that want to get better to get better. You're right that percent of players that wanna raid and get better, probably can and know how to get better. They know to parse and see their numbers when they do something to see if it has a good or bad effect, they know to look at others parses to see why they're parsing so high and if it's something they can pick up on.

The issue is the main part of the playerbase, and the main part of the game's revenue can't be arsed to deal with that shit. And as a player that I feel could help others, frankly I don't want to ever bring up parsing to people in game for fear they bark at me and report me. I just say "damage is too low" and leave, occasionally a DPS whispers me asking if they were an issue (this is in regard to pug runs).

SE designs a game that at the moment needs metrics, and it isn't given the appropriate ones. So there's a disjoint between players who can and players who can't, with not just no incentive, but actually is possibly punishable if you really try to offer advice with statistical reasoning.

You can tell people they should be doing this or they should be doing that, but when they can blow you off because you actually hold no proof "technically" it's hopeless.

Also horizontal content provides longevity rather than the treadmill. People really feel more rewarded when they obtain something and it lasts, rather than each patch being a race to see who clears first (among top teams) and so forth. If you can make it so that even a casual player with time invested can obtain something that can differentiate themselves, then they will feel rewarded and want to do more/get more. But that's hard as shit to design, and can get overly complex quickly which alienates people as well.

I mean it's flat out impossible to satisfy everyone.

>>155580773
That simply isn't enough, they're making it a bit better by making it so accuracy is at least required on the respective dummy.

What sucks is that this means you don't play an expansion, you pay a PATCH.

It's the same thing in WoW, the initial raid of every expansion gets immediately useless and unplayed as soon as the next one comes out, then the final raid of the expansion comes out and that becomes useless too.
If you aren't around for the actual patch then you don't really play the content outside the retarded LFR/duty finder versions.

Content comes and goes and people consume it in a few weeks, then complain there is nothing to do, when they themselves ask for the ability to skip all of it. Fucking MMORPG players.

The pool of talent might be a bit larger but you're not going to see immediate clears like magic. You missed that era before 2.4 when everyone did the great migration to that server.

Now PF is a toss up. It's marginally better than Balmung but, you know.

interesting procs and set bonuses would be the easiest way to introduce horizontal progression. 240 is better numerically but if you wear, for example, the full blm af2 your enochian lasts for 4 seconds longer oorrrrr sword oath proccing a cleave for 12 seconds etc.

even if there was a dps parser in game, people will still refuse to get better. I feel SSS is enough, its a yes/no metric. it should just simply be required before you're allowed to go in. it could even be covered with in-lore reasons with the WoL undergoing SECRET TRAINING.

Not them, but I agree. There's describing a server fairly, and there's acting like a tele-marketer. There's no reason to go and claim everyone on a server is awesome and everyone's welcome etc. It's a server, it's a lot like many other servers. Excalibur doesn't honestly do anything special compared to the others. Don't get me wrong, it's not that I have an issue with it as a server, but there's describing and there's shilling and people really shouldn't shill servers. Hell, I wouldn't call Excalibur pugs particularly wonderful, either. They, like all servers' pugs, have difficulty with some of the most basic mechanics. In the end, it's a server, I'm totally fine having a character on the server but like the other anon, I still advise against outright shilling one. Server recommendations should be as unbiased as possible
