    Higher gear checks =/= challenge. Complex and new mechanics does equal challenge. Gear checks are only there to slow down progression.

    Farming normal mode to start savage =/= challenge. Casual or hardcore raider, you'll be farming normal first if it comes out first, because EVERYONE who wants to do savage will get every advantage that they can in order to beat it or beat others to the first clear. That includes crafted jewellery if it's the best way and they can afford it.

    Not finding savage thrilling after farming normal mode =/= not being hardcore or that you haven't cleared savage already.

    Not sure where some people get their logic here. It seems like some people who haven't actually experienced raiding in this game are trying to pass off their opinions as facts.

    I'm not going to ask for the devs to change anything, but I find savage is boring compared to coil(edit to clarify: because I had to farm normal Alex it made it less exciting to clear savage). Also Alex's story in general was meh. We'll see if the story gets better over time...hopefully but I doubt it. I'm a pessimist.

    You'd have been tired of coil if you ran it on a faceroll version 50 times in one week hoping and praying you'd get that one drop you needed for the week.

    That's why they were "bored" with it. it's not the fights. It's that they did the fight 50 times the first week or two farming the drops.

    How many times did you run coil on one character? Now imagine doing that many runs in one or two weeks. Welcome to burnout. Tom's problem.

    Yes I know. I've posted before(not in this thread, of course) I found clearing savage alex floors boring because I've had to run it in normal.
