Please consider changing the role of normal mode Alexander in future patches

Yep, I feel the same way on the whole 'wow' factor aspect of raiding and taking down bosses. So, would you agree that adding the normal/story mode after savage statics were given a fair chance to clear and experience the raid would be a good idea?

No.

Unless of course y'all really liked the idea of going in a raid designed for ~195 at 183 like if Normal didn't exist.

In WoW, Mythic releases at the same time LFR does. You want to do it that way, go for it.

Staggering wing release won't work until full raids have more than four bosses because even *they* release 3 bosses at a time most of the time.

Most hardcore raiders don't raid for story anyway.

Why do you think it would be tuned in such a way that it'd expect savage raiders to need the gear from normal, where in this scenario it's released at a later date?

Also, I don't really care so much for the story, I just don't want to be forced to raid the same boss model 10-30 times before doing it on savage.

No one is forcing you. However, if you want to raid at bleeding edge level, you are expected to make sacrifices for the guild.

Raiding the same boss model on normal difficulty 10-30 times for gear is one of those.
Even if Alex Savage came out 2 weeks before normal mode, you would still be required to raid Alex normal to fill corresponding item slots to progress on Alex savage 3 and 4.

And Alex normal not dropping gear is a douche thing to ask for and it's not going to happen.
