Any reason to launch A4 Savage as an impossible raid?

AS4 unbeatable with pre-Savage gear: unexpected, but fine.

AS4 unbeatable with full best-in-slot from AS1-3 and all other sources of gear currently in the game: we may have a problem.

Currently, no team out there fulfills the second set of criteria, so this is not yet a problem worth worrying about.

This is kinda what I'm worried about myself. If A4S requires the best players in the world to be i200+ to defeat, then how are people who, for whatever reason, can only bring themselves to, say, 85-90% of that performance level supposed to beat it before the next ilvl bump (i.e. while it's still relevant) at all? And don't say "git gud", folks. Sometimes even just lag can make that much difference.

My concern here is that all i210 weapons are locked behind A4 Savage, meaning that until 3.1 comes out, teams who are in full i210 gear + i200 eso wep who can't quite make the enrage for A4 Savage are just SOL. And that may end up being anyone who hasn't already beaten A3S, and even some who have. All this serves to do is frustrate players. I would be a bit less concerned if there was at least some other way to upgrade current Esoteric gear, but that isn't the case.

Here's hoping that the gear requirement isn't quite that high.
