Adjustments are made with good intentions; we aren't simply 'nerfing' your favourite class just to spite you!
	# The server aims to provide challenging content for players. The private server experience for FFXI can often be on the 'easy' side, and the development team want to provide content which provides an appropriate level of challenge at the equipment level we expect you to encounter it. This doesn't mean we expect you to fight Bubbly Bernie for 24hrs+, or to show up to Kirin with 3 WHM and melee him to death; the fights should be challenging but achievable with skill & teamwork		# The server aims to provide challenging content for players.

	# In line with the previous aim, adjustments may be made to content. Some content may be adjusted to be more difficult, or easier depending on player experience and discussion within the development team. These may be live changes or adjusted on server restart. Updates will be put in the 'Updates' channel on Discord; these are not detailed patch notes, but will provide high-level information adjustments. Other elements of the play experience may also be altered if required to achieve this aim. Virtually all 'live' games will have patches and adjustments, Caldera is in active development and therefore players should expect these adjustments to be made within their playtime here.		# In line with the previous aim, adjustments may be made to content.
