With that being said, isn't every boss fight like that with memorization? You learn the steps and then dance to it. This dates all the way back to Satasha, before everybody started ignoring adds to burn the boss. The steps have just been more refined.
    The difference being the sheer volume of mechanics in Savage content compared to, say, Sastasha. It's the equivalent of putting two tablespoons of dressing on my salad for flavoring, as opposed to dumping the whole bottle in and all I can taste is dressing.

    If you were to spend an entire day going from Satasha to Omega Savage, you'll notice that the number and types of mechanics evolve with each successive level. All I was saying is that the dance evolved over time. Obviously, there's no comparison between the two, but given that Satasha is our starting point...yeah, you can see how mechanics grew from there.
