"Easy" and "Hard" are too vauge.

The game needs to be more difficult in terms of what you need to perform, but less punishing if you fail.

I like the M+ system, but all the punishments need to be removed.

Looks like they agree with you to a degree. Its still a lazy affix in my opinion, I am hoping it just goes away after the season.

Increased the timer in every dungeon by 1.5 minutes with this change (or 6 free death)

Now people can stop leaving +10 keys when first pack kills a burnout deadbeat that didn't interrupt.

Keep it coming Blizz.

That will allow mediocre players to go slightly higher but not solve the problem.

Why do deaths decrease the timer? Dying naturally does that anyway.

Why is there a timer? If you are dying, you can't beat the encounter.

It just removes all scope for learning and communication. When you wipe, either you can work on the tactic and clear it, or you can't.

Having to refarm the key, probably get a different dungeon, and not come back for a long while gets rid of that "work on the tactic" phase.

As a tank I just got a different group with someone else's key, but DPS can't do that, so it was rolling the dice to get DPS who had learned.

There's a level of pretentiousness around the "difficulty" when it's actually just time wasting to reduce the number of attempts possible and the actual difficulty is very easy compared to medium difficulty FF14 content.

As corny as this sounds.. the difficulty wouldnt be that big of an issue, at least for me, if I actually talked to more than 2 people in the whole game. I have a sneaking suspicion, after knowing some of you for fucking YEARS now... that ya'll are guilty of the same thing. I know the existential dread of the possibility of fucking up and your friends being in the group, too. So I get both sides of the argument, trust. But that really is the answer to this problem. That, or Im going to just start taking a xanax before pugging Mythics.

The big issue is the game is built to support both random idiots who don't communicate and highly coordinated groups of closely knit high level players.

It used to split the difference by just supporting consistent grouping between like minded players.

Well week be over. If I had done the pvp weeklys other then the AV Of Olde I would have gotten my set

No daily quests are part of the tokens only weeklys or one time quests so it may take 2 hours of your time. 58 is a good amount, I wonder if Blizz will make it easier?

Oh they made it 5x faster so 300 a week and you can buy everything in one week? Guess that's pretty fast

Yea its way faster now, also getting a mount per day off Doomwalker, I guess I missed a lot, but it saves me some tokens, and the las tone I am missing is a Doomhawk. The sets go down to 20 tokens per after you buy two so I could prob buy em all this week but I am doing warrior then some cosmetics

edit. 155 Weekly now (no dailies required, lionshare come from Khaz Algar weeklys you will do regardless) + a pile from one timers you can basically get it all real quick.

edit 2. After getting the 100 achievement 2 are available for every Timewalking dungeon (possibly infinite i did 2 and they are still showing as reward)

edit 3. Also now getting 3 per BRD raid boss after getting to 100

I always get a chuckle out of Warriors dual wielding 2 handers. I mean the Warriors forearms, arms, shoulders, chest, back,... fuck, probably every squat muscle... Shit, your whole body would have to be fucking swole as shit to hold two swords the size of your body up like that. But yes, those 2handers are cool.

Looks like I was right. After you hit 100 you can grind em all out at your leisure with no cap. 100 is very easy this week.

Shit has like no staying power. I just dont get it. Everything thats available, I just dread doing. Its fun for a little while, but putting any serious effort to it is mentally exhausting.

Good job, that's +500 above me.

How would you rate the dungeons?

GB feels like a difficult gear check but I got pretty good at it, last boss is hectic but I never seemed to fail it. All the bosses have positioning mechanics which felt fun.
SV felt similar difficulty but for whatever reason it just seemed way easier to fail, I think it's harder to carry as a tank there as the mechanics required DPS to think more.

DAWN in theory is probably the easiest but something always seemed to go wrong there with new awful things happening the higher to key got.
NW surprised me, I actually did it on Mythic in Shadowlands and the hook thing was a nightmare. On higher keys everyone knows the mechanics so felt like the easiest and most consistent one overall.

No he's me
Am me is you?

Seriously though there's nothing new. Nothing feels challenging without suffering through tired ass m+. There's no sense of mmo in the rpg. No new systems. Game should've been reinvented 5 years ago with WoW2 but only fags and commies work there and they can't create shit.
