When will you people get that Savage doesn't mean what it used to? Like "Hard" mode, the meaning has changed!

Savage Coil - 100% optional, only run for the challenge and epeen titles

Savage Alexander - 100% NOT optional. You want higher than i200? You HAVE to run it, no choice (until catch up patches ofc).

The only reason it's tagged as Savage is not because it's this be all and end all of super high difficulty of challenges. It's because they can't slap a "Hard" mode tag on it to tell the casuals "it's really hard, don't do it", because they'll get all up in arms and confused over the fact "hurr but I've done Seph HM".

I'm serious, if Alex normal was tagged as "Story", and what we know as Savage didn't have a difficulty tag at all (like Coil), you wouldn't even use that as an argument. Hell, you probably wouldn't even complain about the nerfs. But just because it has the Savage tag do you assume it must be this untouched epeen stroke that SCOB has, which is NOT the case.

tl;dr get with the times.
