Please add the Savage exclusive phase of O4S to O4N

Ask a competent group to stream their run for your friends on twitch.

Or pay for a carry. There's groups out there that will take you all through the fight.

Because it's one of my favorite bosses in the entire series. If it was some original boss this wouldn't be an issue, but this is a major fanservice thing that we're missing out on.

why is FF5 suddenly became everyone's favorite ?

FFV is the quiet one. No one knows it, but the people who do tend to love it.

I'll just wait until undersized

Please leave this fight as a Savage fight only. I'm tired of casuals having access to everything. We raiders put in a lot of time to get to the end of the hardest content of this game so I think we deserve something special for once.

I loved FF5 but honestly I feel like it's sadly hampered by the fact that everything it did, the later games improved upon. Even X-2, the blacksheep of the entire series, took that combat system and improved upon it quite significantly. So I can see why some people aren't interested in going back to try it. That said it's definitely in my Top 5 and I probably had more fun with it's story and gameplay than most other titles in the series.

X-2 has the best combat system of any numbered FF title. People can argue they didn't like the aesthetics, but that combat system is legit.

Pretty much yeah =/

If it was several years ago I'd be right with you saying it should be gated etc, etc, but things change.

I just want to indulge in the silly fan-service fight with my friends when it's not old news and I don't think that's unreasonable to ask of this game considering it basically sells itself on fan-service.

You can't always have everything in life, even if you are a paying customer like everyone else here. The option to go is there. If you can't, that's your own issue.

It stands to reason anytime they strongly reference any FF, that FF's fans will come out and talk it up. This will happen with any of them that comes up in this game.

As someone who raided Coil back in the day but didn't touch Savage Alex and has very little intent of stepping foot into Savage Omega while it's "on content" (I'm just burnt out) - I stand by what most people here said: Keep the fight exclusive to Savage.

As people here have said - you have the ability to go in and raid the Savage version of the encounter with everyone else. You're choosing not to, just like I'm choosing not to. But the difference is, I understand that my *choice* to not go into Savage is just that - MY choice. I don't get special treatment as a player because I don't want to do the hard versions of the raids.

The fight is a bonus for people who are hardcore raiders - its their "reward" for the fact that SE had to make a Story Mode for all the people who complained that Coil was unfairly gated. SE isn't obligated to remove content gates and they shouldn't have to. So basically, suck it up and either learn to do hardcore raiding (there are plenty of raiding groups that take Savage on much more casually than World Firsters) or wait until the next expansion and unsync the fight at Level 80.
