Can we please delay Savage?

[ForteNightshade]

Gonna highlight a key phrase that makes this entire thread pointless. Your Character, Your Choice. Plain and simple. SE didnt make your static schedule, SE didnt make you join a static, SE didnt make you do the raids first, nor should SE cater to YOUR schedule. You dont want to race in the first week, then dont! it REALLY IS that simple.

Nice cherry picking. Now allow me to quote the actual context of that post you conveniently left out.

How does that make sense? If Savage were released a week later, people would have time to do the story should they choose, craft and essentially get preparation done without having to rush everything. Those "first wave problems," as you put it, only exist because the second and third Savage tiers come out alongside Normal mode. They don't with the first tier, which is why many raiders have been requesting this delay.

This clearly referred to raiders who both want to watch the story and raid week one. Presently, we do not have that choose as we either have to skip story to prioritize Savage or lose a day. Lambdafish also brought up a good point. I don't have a choice to skip Normal mode entirely. I have to go through it to unlock Savage. So even using your nonsensical "logic". It's still wrong.

That all being said, an easy compromise—if we actually needed one—would be to unshackle Savage and Normal mode. Just put a NPC with a warning prompt that tells players they are unlocking Savage and may not understand the full context. Bam. Now Normal mode and its story don't interfere with Savage. Nevertheless, I still think a small delay would be a better alternative but the aforementioned is still an option.

Ultimately, you only care about your preference and how this effects you though. The irony is you've contradicted yourself since if you only aim to do content leisurely, delaying Savage a day, two days or a week wouldn't impact you in the slightest. In other words, you're screeching into the abyss just to be heard.
