So, to answer your question: you asked. You're welcome

The "midcore" players are galore in Bozja, having spent a lot of time amassing enough mettle to get all 30 rays, and yet Red Choctober STILL wipes whole dungeons regularly. And let's not even start about the "midcores" facing the earth / fire combo in CLL. Because that is also usually cleared by only a fraction of all participating players.

I am not arguing about the distinction between hard-, midcore, or casual players. What I was saying in the quoted text - i do not subscribe to the notion that Savage fights are "midcore", not if they are the regular difficult endgame that FFXIV offers since its release. Ultimate is a step above that, for those wanting an extra challenge.

Everything else you say here makes sense, yeah.
