FWF only did well because you all had GMs in your pocket and super hacks that were undetectable by the FBI. I'm on to you only money will silence me.
you big fat jerk

A great point, however I have to think that inaccessible end-game content in a game like this just shifts where people perceive the end to be. Rather than - hey we just killed VZ and beat the game - people consider themselves done when they get something like a solanerus, or a 4.3 robe, or a verdict, or some other silly thing, while the highest end content goes not only unkilled, but completely untouched.I generally do not comment on these endgame discussions because spending my life raiding isn't my bag anymore, but as for the inaccessibility of the highest tier of content that seems a-okay in my book. The absolute highest tier content either has to be prohibitively difficult (SoD) or constantly replaced with new content (EQ, WoW) or else everyone "beats" the game and wanders off.
.....
And stances, let's not even start talking about those. I would have loved to get a stance overhaul like the warriors got. But an extremely vocal minority nixxed that before it ever got off the ground. All to save the "oh shit I need to tank stance".
I do love your ideas for improving rogues though. (Whom most certainly need some love, and a warrior type stance system to make relevant again, imo.)
Here we can see that the raid DPS isnt that great. For comparison, here is a undergeared undertomed character from 2014 vs rujik.

--- DMG: 529410 (8.08%) @ 1117 dps (1112 sdps)
--- DMG to PC: 122586 @341dps
let's count the 4.3 2 handers. solosolki, .... uhh, zorlon (pre-aod change) .... okay.EVERY SINGLE 4.3 weapon has been nerfed.
I'm a little surprised you even brought this up, it kinda reeks of desperation, or hoping no one will call you out. Ice Comet was removed from Custo sword literal months before we got intimate with Dr. Moktar, I mean they are so far apart that I don't think rujik/ree even existed by the time comet was removed. Paging ReehsCusto Sword used to proc ICE COMET
okay let's play the counting game again, 4.3 robe.... reinhardt... lleoc.... well, i guess at least they could nuke faster??Robes gave CSI10 THAT WORKED ON ALL SPELLS, INCLUDING FAST HEALS/NUKES
This is true and still the only I can get on board with. Except for oneeeeee big problem... who on this raid had this mystical vah back? Solosolki, Lleoc, Zurkka, Glorax, umm... yeah, it was gross, but to suggest we were progressing with a treasure chest of vah backs is a real stretch dude. Oh, let's not forget how bad vah back was on a monk, ranger, rogue, magician, etc. It had ATK added later to compensate.Two Minutes of Vah Back. Anyone that knows what vah back does knows how insanely powerful that is.
really? :\ I'm not trying to troll you, but you cannot look me in the eye and tell me you think that matters at all.Fae Robes were 40%
Sure, loot we did not yet have. we're talking like net 20 or so hp/mana per character.Tons of loot had more raw hp/mana/ac
valid, but statistically insignificant. When dealing with something like 2-3 extra percent on a binary conclusion, you made math nerds cringe. it's nearly equally likely that you do more damage post-nerf[/quote]Channeling Gave pretty much every character more spell crit
simply rooted in fantasy man. In my vid we kill one add. Sure, I think there was ONE kill where the adds were bugged and had 1 hp, but to suggest that this was a regular thing is kind of insulting to those of us who were there. My video was like the 4th kill.Necros lost their broke spreading DOT thing that killed all rujik adds, and gave caster group 20-30% bonus mana.
etc
this has never been the mantra of anyone. I've tried and tried, and I don't know how else to drive this home man, the only reason people don't progress is because they choose not to. The only person who thinks "FWF was great" is you - and it's rose tinted glasses - we had our fair share of not-so-good players. For some guilds, it's about loot, and indeed farming basement is still probably the best way to improve your character. Others find enjoyment in beating new fights. Exo and CW were both so far beyond where we were on our first kills. You are trying to balance around human nature.The mantra that "nobody else is good enough to kill the things we do" is just stupid.
Last night we had a blazewind attempt that we did right and we lost because we didnt use COTB. If SF with half its toons in full T13 gear, supreme, and every viable opus requires COTB on an attempt without other mistakes, how is a guild without all of that supposed to have a chance.

P.S. on an unrelated note im not sure where the hell rangers come up with space to put all there shit i mean seriously 1 bag of quivers is basically standard if not more than 1 bag plus another 4-5 slots of partially unused arrows plus the standard bags of clickies/gear swaps. You guys are saints im a bard carrying i think last i checked 6 instruments and i still struggle to find space to carry things and still be able to loot.
