Umm... I see a lack in the responses when it comes to "end game".
First of all, there really is no "end", in the same sense as massive instances with a hyper-uber-boss. Yes, there is a time when one has leveled all the skills one particularly cares about (or so I have been told).
However, there are not just bosses (and I disagree that they can all be taken out with a threesome -- some are harder than others, and they aren't all the q270's) and NPC bosses. There is content that hasn't been explored (at least on Arispotle) for YEARS. I can't remember when the last expedition to Demon's Lap to harvest Kitin Larvae was. I think it was long enough ago that Bittty didn't have a combat master.
There are aspects of the game that still surprise me after four years of watching Bittty work. There are areas that I have never been to and skills that I have not *yet* bothered to explore. I haven't even begun to explore the content that relates to the various tribes, nor even most of the mission content.
So, at least for me, the problem of "end game content" seems to be very far off.
