Like, we actually used to talk about how the mettle loss in Castrum "isn't that bad", "it can be earned back". The savage is next level. People in my Bozja CWL were talking about losing 400k+ mettle progging it and having to farm bozja to earn it back. That's over half their earned mettle in it's entirety! People who like savage-tier content, will (or already have) clear it once, and say "never again". It's simply not worth it.

I assume this savage was supposed to sort of make up for the absence of Ultimate, and serve as filler for high-end raiders, but it just doesn't apply, in my opinion. Having it for Bozja which is effectively casual/midcore content, makes no sense to me. The punishment system might as well be removed, or completely reworked, and definitely doesn't work for high-end content people have to prog - it might as well be encouraging players NOT to prog content.
Exactly! People don't understand that this new 48 man isnt' going to survive in the long run. It's a lot easier to get 8 people to tackle an older ultimate than it is trying to get 48 people trying to prog a savage content that will probably be like BA where you can't go in unsync'd!

They could've easily finished off the ultimate if they didn't waste battle content dev's time on the new 48 man savage which was pure garbage!
