Please release nest Normal and Savage raids at the same time.

[StrejdaTom]

This is the problem with the so-called 'hardcore' - they aren't really 'hardcore'. If you feel you're hardcore and need to do normal just for that little bit of an advantage then that's your problem.

If you're not 'hardcore' then... don't do it and wait!

Thanks for your constructive criticism and serious effort trying to improve the situation.

Even the world first groups haven't done savage in i180 gear, most probably because it is not optimised for such low ilevel and wouldn't be doable. What is so not-hardcore about it? (If I remember right they were also gated on A4s by gear and had to gear up a bit to be able to clear it, so I would really love to hear how not doing it in ilvl 180 - which was kinda the max you could get without Normal Alexander - is not hardcore)

A3s was serious challenge before our first kill and it wasn't even about ilevel, so lower ilevel optimalisation wouldn't even be a problem. A1/2 were different stories though, without ilevel gates people would breeze trough them in 1 day. It was SE's decision to make it like that to slow the progression at the expense of fun. Is really asking for raid that doesn't relly on its lower version gear so much?

It was just a matter of time before someone like you showed here, one rant thread probably isn't enough, right?

EDIT: Also I am not sure what is your experience with Alexander Savage considering I haven't seen a single A1S item on you , but I would strongly suggest actually doing these fights or checking on teams who have done them before commenting on their item level requirements. Because right here

If you feel you're hardcore and need to do normal just for that little bit of an advantage then that's your problem.

you have described every raid team in this game at this moment. There is a difference between advantage and necessity.
