Get your point about how much effort I spend? I understood that. But that's not what this topic is about. You want to talk effort in strikes vs raids? There's a completely different amount of effort put into a raid vs put into a strike. And the reason why is simple, in a raid, you get much better rewards. Also the enemies do more damage to you. In strikes, rewards are trivial and enemies don't do much damage to you making if far easier to stay alive. Thus, requiring less effort.
I got your point. Hoping you've understood mine.
No, you didn't get my point, or you are deliberately ignoring it. I understood you quite well and showed that multiple times. At this point, wasted time is exactly what we've gotten. Kudos. Hope it was worth it to you.
"The point here is that if you are willing to put in 3 or 4 times the effort required to do a Raid, then why is it such a problem for someone to run a strike without hauling ass and going balls to the wall all the time?"
That is the clear point you made. Which I understood and replied to.
If you are referring to the not-as-clear point of whether or not its worthwhile to do things over and over, that is not what this discussion was about. If you personally feel that the raid is "wasting time killing things you don't need to" you would technically be right as you don't have to do the raid. Granted, not doing the raid means it will take you longer to get better gear, requiring more effort. But in the end its all a personal opinion whether or not something is worth it. It's apparently worth it to you as well as OP, to kill every enemy in a strike. However, it's not worthwhile to me so I will skip it.
If you had another point besides those two, it was too obscure for me to pick out.
Also, I never actually called [b]you[/b] a hypocrite. Maybe you should re-read that comment. Saying an action is hypocritical in a discussion isn't singling you out. Especially since you weren't the one who made the post complaining.
