    I did some careful maths a while ago that showed it was over 30% outside Japan and over 50% in Japan. This remained similar whether as a percentage of people that cleared normal raids, or as a percentage of people who simply reached level 100, and were active. It was even similar trying to do it via collect websites - you just have to get the raw number of players with savage rewards (or achievements) and get that as a percentage of the raw numbers with normal rewards (or achievements). And that's just who cleared the entire tier sometime within the ~8 months of the tier, not who engaged with it and cleared just M1S or M5S or just Extremes, which is likely even higher. The lowest clear rate I saw in the last tier was 11% on Kraken.

    If we're objective, it's not for 1% of players. But that doesn't mean the non-raid content shouldn't be good, both for players that don't want to be doing raids that involve too much coordination or static building, and for between raiding where you might want to relax and do things like CEs in OC that don't require that degree of coordination.

    Oh I agree, I just hate the disingenuous "top 1%" bs that ultra-casuals throw out there to try and make it out like the people who raid in this game are insignificant.
