Why do people assume savage is "midcore" these days? I get Ultimate is harder by a lot but Savage isn't even remotely approachable to someone who hasn't done it before nor do most people do it without a guide, While anyone can do savage with enough practice the same can be said about Ultimates (just more practice because its got tons of phases and more mechs). Even Ext's to a lesser extent are very loosely "midcore" Theirs also players who do savage "casually" vs doing it week 1 in a static, your average joe and 90% of the playerbase isn't going to clear savage week 1. funnily enough most people count savage as hardcore content I also think the devs consider it so.
The truth is "Midcore" isn't real in this game, you either play a easy dungeon/trial that doesn't require much of anything or you play hardcore content where your expected to wipe over and over again and/or watch a guide along with that. The closest I can think of is EXT (which to you is more casual) but even then if someone didn't watch a guide and have prior knowledge to the mechs it would be painfully obvious and that person would get kicked... I also don't see any "Blind" Ext runs on PF either.
Theirs ways of "casually" approaching hardcore content like Savage and Ultimate's, while theirs also ways the "upper end" of players approach it by clearing week 1 ect. I personally don't understand labelling content like savage itself as Midcore, as this game cannot have midcore by its design have DDR dance mechs you either have content that's too punishing or too lenient theirs not room for in-between.
