I do have a feeling something bigger than the goblins is going to appear and then the threat being more real.

In fairness to Alexander: Gordias, BCoB had a bunch of uninteresting bosses also. First floor was a giant snake, the 2nd a giant ADS, 4th floor was just a gauntlet, and 5th floor was Twintania. Only real interesting boss fights in the entirety of the last raid were Darnus, Phoenix, and Bahamut, mostly because they were all major plot points. I will wait and see how Alexander delivers on this. I do think in the future raids though they need to throw the hard punches right from the start to keep people motivated and interested.

As for gear. SE is getting real lazy here. You would think for top notch raiding gear, you would make each set look unique. Aiming, Scouting, and Striking all look the same with very minor differences. Its understandable for lower gear, but this is unique, very hard to get gear, it should be treated as such.
Thank you for your contribution to the thread
I do believe that Alexander will get a better story in the next installment but I'm of the opinion that after ScoB and Fcob they needed to come out guns blazing with Alexander.
And interesting point with the gear - I didn't even think about that.
