Praise for the current alliance raids

I just came here to say that I am really enjoying the latest alliance raids (the raids themselves, although I like the quests around them as well). They are mechanically engaging to me, have fantastic music to accompany them, are visually stunning, and I just overall find them really fun to do.

I wanted to thank the devs for their work on Myths of the Realm. I really enjoy it so far, and it's likely to become my favorite alliance raid series of the game. I hope others are enjoying them as much as I am.

In my opinion, I think the current alliance raids are quite easy mechanics-wise. I wish the devs would continue down with the difficulty of Ivalice ally raids as they're my favorite.

They are fun and the glam is sweet! Can't remember gear i wanted from others other than Nier. Can't wait for the 3rd installment.

Still waiting for that launch Ivalice difficulty that was promised.

Void Ark line was the height of quality raids. Nier was the low point.

I agree, Alliance raids are pretty much the only 'midcore' content we have so there should be some sense of difficulty to explain why you even need 24 players. Don't get me wrong, they are fun (Dalamutt best doggo), but there's 6 healers present, you can get more creative than just "sidestep the big orange circle/ring".

The first one was wonderful, in my opinion. The 2nd...yeah, it was okay. It just didn't have the spectacle from start to finish that made the first one more enjoyable for me. Halone was probably the only boss that I felt was epic to fight. Admittedly, she's a large reason why I'm willing to give the raid a not amazing, but not terrible review. I will also admit that I am biased toward her specifically, so maybe that clouds my judgement a bit. I also think that the bosses didn't scale very well to where players were/are at currently. The mechanics weren't exactly engaging for me either. But I won't say the raid was terrible. The music was decent, the zones were beautiful, some of the sets look wonderful and the bosses looked great. I was just a little disappointed by it is all, but not enough to say it was bad. The story has been okay so far, too. Hopefully the ending will be decent as a result.

I forgot to mention the glams! But yes, they are really nice too. I'm also looking forward to patch 6.5 with the third installment!

I loved Aglaia. Literally ran it over 100 times. Euphrosyne could use some tweaking imo... maybe have bosses do their mechanics earlier, and ramp up some of their raidwides faster. Maybe shave a couple of minutes off of the second boss' enrage timer. It always feels like those fights end way too soon??? idk.
You reminded me that I have to do it for my weekly though, so ty

I liked Aglaia, Euphrosyne is too easy and bland, sad because Halone is gorgeous. I also like Nymeia and Althyk's designs.
