kinda disappointed of T6 -T7 difficulty

thought they are on par as T5 but the difficulty was like T4 before we know what to do

hopefully T8 is harder

You're kidding right?

no im not sadly

This is how most raids work, the first few fights are going to be easier than the final fight of the previous tier

Yoshida said the difficulty would be akin to when you started turn 1 with full darklight (assuming you're in full i90 now). If you feel it was actually as hard as turn 4 then that's more difficult than expected. Also, while the raids usually do get 'harder' in that you need better gear to survive the damage you can't avoid and to deal damage faster, the actual normalized difficulty doesn't usually change much.

I would definitely consider t6 the same difficulty as t5 but faster pace. And t7, it's just more unforgiving, it somewhat feels easier than t6, I dunno. These new turns are definitely on par with t5, if not, more difficult.

It was never difficult, just that the general playerbase's skillcap in this game is lower.

I was hoping for at least the difficulty coil had when we first reached it in darklight, some ak gear and an un-upgraded relic. So far it has exceeded those expectations by a large margin. Can't wait to see what kind of wall t9 will be.

oh hey Spearya. T5 is "tough" mainly because it depends on 7 other competant people. so t6-7 are going to be slightly less than that, and have things get harder at the same point. tho some have already downed t8 also.
just so it doesnt sound like im a stalker, its Rumina Asou.

Really?
/10char

yea. from what im hearing on GAF, a FC on Ultros has downed it.

It is acceptable. Comparing to T5 isn't very fair because in T5 most of us are probably at BiS point by the time 2.2 hits. It is at least more challenging than T1 and that's a + on its own. We are currently back to darklight status and that says a lot for itself. BiS just makes it easier ie: parry pld crit drg blm etcetc

It would be a whole different story if everyone's all geared up in AF1 + Relic without any other option (allag).

Have you done T6? You just described every hard piece of content ever and the coordination and execution required in T6 is no joke.

Also citation needed for the "some" have cleared t8.

T6 is only easy because you're more skilled because of T5 and other content the game has offered. Most of its mechanics are stuff you've already grown accustomed to.

Turn 6 is just as complex as Turn 5 in terms of battle mechanics. It's no tank and spank and there are multiple phases. Not just two. Comparing it to T4 is laughable when dps (half the group) don't do anything but kill the targets in the right order.

maybe u r right

as we didnt know about tank swapping in T2 for example

as T6 has the same mechanic too with a few more mechanics like bulbs and the adds with water aoe

hmmm yes and no I guess.

I love all these new mechs, gotta say turns 6 + 7 are different and fun.

I agree with the OP i thought we would be banging our heads against turn 6 for much longer, however majority of people still need turn 5 and turn 6 isnt a cake walk for the masses.

Maybe turn 8 and 9 will turn up the fire?

So far i think the clearing of turn 7 is below 10 FCs... not heard of any one clear 8 yet...?

Hoping to down turn 7 with my static soon -today/tomorrow depending on availability.
