So when you consider that, the toughest fight in the game is beat roughly two weeks after release and we're stuck with it for 6 months! Don't worry about other FCs beating it. Once the mechanics get leaked, kills start flowing in which is what will happen now.
    If SE wants a proper gear check break point, they need larger raids. None of this 4 boss per Binding Coil nonsense. I'm hoping they improve upon that in the future. A good raid tier needs at least 8 fully fleshed out bosses, with the beef gate point being around 5 bosses in and the last being a true gear and skill check.

    The way I see it, T8 was supposed to be the 'gear check', but seems undertuned given the clears. Perhaps the Second Coil is in need of some rebalancing.

    Honestly you don't need 8/raid but you do need more fleshed out and actual bosses.
    Lets look at coil 1 and see how many actual bosses we got shall we? t1 is a real boss, t2 is a trashmob with a new mechanic (rot) t3 is a benny hill race, t4 is more trash and t5 is an actual boss.
    So we got 2.5 real bosses. Wows shortest raids (stuff like hyjal) had more real bosses.
