Gordias savage was especially harsh on the casual raider and even the dev team has acknowledged this. I also don't mean casual as in you can only put in x amount of time per week but I also include the below average to average type of players. I was lucky enough to be a part of a top tier raiding group which allowed me to clear Gordias savage at an early date. It took time and very skilled players for us to clear it. I've since moved on to a more casual group and the difference is quite tangible. If anything, I'll advice you to look forward to 3.2 end game as Midas will most likely be more accessible to anyone who wants to try it.
