Lack of End Game Content

[Zabuza]

Out of curiousity, to those that want more content catered to the top 1% of players that have already completed all ShB content and can get through challenge content in a week that most won't manage within a year.

Would you accept a higher tier (like ultra savage or whatever) or system (like Mythic + dungeons/trials that add affixes and stacking enemy hp/damage)- if it didn't reward better gear? Or is better gear a requirement?

I'm just curious if you want content and challenge, or if you simply want a greater divide in gear from the multitudes?

I'm sure opinions on this may differ depending on which raider you talk to. I, personally, would still do it for the challenge. Thing is, once you clear it once or twice, even that ceases to pose much of a challenge from then. Without grinding for savage gear, I wouldn't run clear on it for 8 weeks in a row. People keep making this mistake of thinking raiders just want to lord their status over everyone else. I just want to be the best I can be, and be challenged. I'm not looking to be some kind of elite. The challenges give me a chance to test myself. To become better than I was yesterday. Without a challenge, improvement can not be made. I'm not thinking about some kind of class divide when I run my raids. Without the gear, there'd be no reason left to run anything once it is on farm status. That goes for tomes, totems, savage gear, and ultimate weapons. The gear allows you to perform better, if even by a fraction, than you did before you had the gear.

Mostly, I want a completely fresh and new type of difficult battle content. Not another trial fight. Even Mythic+ dungeons would be something.

Upon further introspection, I don't understand why wanting better gear as a savage raider is a bad thing. You should get rewards that correspond to your work. That's how it works in the real world.
