    I was specifically talking about stuff in the alliance raid roulette. The roulette is designed to reward experienced players for assisting random players who are queueing into that stuff for the first time ever. I'm surprised that, as experienced as you claim to be, you haven't understood that yet.

    That doesn't change the fact that it's going to be their first time running this raid. As many of you flexers have said, the raid was challenging and difficult for you on week 1. That was how it was intended. It was never meant to keep challenging you forever.

    I have to add my two cents here as well that nothing stays challenging after being repeated multiple times.... by the time we were getting close to being BIS we were reclearing the savage raid tier in less than two hours for all 4 fights and we weren't a week one static or anything.

    I would love for all alliance raids to have the same level of kill potential this one does if you don't respect the mechanics however. And they all mostly did when they first came out, but now the gear/potency creep makes them extremely dull.

    quite frankly UNREAL shouldn't exist. That is what they should do with all content. I.E. Ultima Unreal is just Ultima EX rebalanced so the difficulty is close to what it was back in the day. There shouldn't be an Unreal EX in my opinion.... It should just be the OG Ultima Extreme trial if balancing was done right from the get go.

    Likewise, Unreal Alliance raids should just be normal alliance raids rebalanced so they can be close to the difficulty they were back in the day.

    Unreal is just admitting the games older content lives in a state of disrepair.

    Again you are completely incapable of engaging with what people say, and I have to say your smugness falls completely flat given how stupid you've made yourself out to be. It's everyones first time running the new raid, not solely new players. They will have done alliance raids before. Nobody is asking for the raid to be challenging forever, you're just making things up in your mind to get upset about and then projecting them onto what I said. And if you were talking about the alliance raid roulette you should have said that originally instead of editing your comment after I responded to it and getting pissy that I didn't somehow divine you were specifically talking about that. And I haven't claimed anywhere to be experienced, yet another thing you're just making up.
