This is why my crew stop playing every time we try and come back. The game isn't going to be in good shape until the end of summer; you'll have xmog and gear sets by then

said, they intend on putting in an equipment manager so you can quickly put on a different set of armor. Im skeptical about how they'll implement it - but if its anything like how FFXIV handles gear sets, itll be a game changer. But yes, I agree that switching gear as much as they want you too is just fucking awful with or without an equipment manager.

Does unequipped gear in your inventory still take damage upon death as well? That was item#231 that drove me away at release
You don't even take equipment damage at all in a dungeon.

Being one of the first to do the 2 end game dungeons on my server it was horrible to lose durability on all of your shit. I remember one run we did right after we ran the chests in a few places and my inv was full of decent shit high level for that time like 570-590 that sold well and a few wipes later all the shit was fucked. At least I learned my lesson and had empty inv from that time on when doing dungeons, lol.
I think that first run through that one dungeon with the snake bitch, the one where she painted the floor with explosion AOE spot targeted on each person you had to avoid? I think we wiped on her like 20 times if not more. We were all pretty much done at that time but we had one of those moments where everything clicked and we finally beat her. The last boss we one shot.

True, moreso now than back during the days of release, but tanks always made shit easier. They actually had taunt that worked with the shield bash and it was easy to take aggro right back when some DPS stole it. I could not even imagine doing those high end dungeons without a tank. Since most DPS would just get 1-2 shot.

You can in a manner of speaking, but you need PVE demons geared out and some muts are easier to run with all DPS + 1 healer.
Shard sellers used to sell m10s to Genesis on my server and they were all hatchet DPS with 1 heal

So nothing is really happening to make the game actually exciting to play over what already exists. 1-60 is not the games problem. What the actual fuck.
The games problem revolves around a tedious high end game that lacks any kind of exciting loot or real purpose beyond repeating the same thing over and over again. I do not mind repetition if the reward makes it all worthwhile. Having high end expensive armor that is 5% better than what the cheap stuff is, is not how I define exciting. Obviously some players are fine with the zerg and farm millions of chests mentality. It is fun the first 10 times until you begin to realize how boring it is. The tougher dungeons would be worth the effort if the loot was worth doing them for. Going from 600-625 actually does take time but rewards so little for the effort. It just becomes pointless once you have seen everything a few times.
This game already has population issues that will become dramatic once newer MMO"s start to surface.

It really only has a notable impact on wars (and maybe OPR). If you have a better idea where enemy healing is centered, then it is easier to do area denial in those areas. You can also better prepare if you know an AOE is enemy vs friendly and use that to change player behaviors.
For example, there are lots of ice storms. Usually you just assume they are enemy and act accordingly. But what if only 1 out of the 4 storms were enemy storms? Now it doesn’t look as daunting, so you may charge in now
