OK so Taco Knights is an official Sons of Poseidon(SofP) Raid group now. We have downed T11 and should finish T12 tonight.

Note: In light of 10% Echo now being added to Final Coil and no restrictions to queue, I will stop tracking kills at this point until Heavensward. This is not considered raiding progression content at this point in time; this is not to criticize or downplay people's accomplishments at this point, but it serves as a natural endpoint for tracking progression until the expansion.

Grats on the T7 Savage Clear! Heard it's a pain in the butt.

But waiting to clear savage after getting higher tier gear than it was designed for is considered progression?

**bushymark** · 04-25-2015 08:26 AM

You DO have a point. However given that the content had not been cleared on the server prior to i130 (save T6), does that particular content not deserve special dispensation? Do we leave those boxes empty forever? It was never part of a progression based patch to begin with .... I feel like Savage is a different story, however I am biased. I have less skin in the game tho, cause it's other Onion teams that are taking it on now, but all the same.

**PapaSteel** · 04-25-2015 08:28 AM

I'd claim that the difficulty of turns 7-9 savage still remain higher, even at i130, than any portion of final coil completed at i115.

I encourage anyone who disagrees to put forth the work to experience it for themselves and earn a clear - and if you still disagree, we would absolutely remove them from the progression list. I'm confident that you'd be surprised.

A few things I'd like to note here.

1) It is content that has not been cleared yet, but has been released for quite a while. This makes it reasonable to consider it progression content.

2) Savage SCOB, even at i130, is more difficult than any turn in FCOB (I say this being in the T8 group).

3) None of the groups currently clearing Savage SCOB "waited" to go in. One of the groups didn't even exist until well after FCOB was released, and the other group did not exist in it's current form. It has 3 different members, but even that group at the time was working on Savage (scheduling issues held them back as well as not having funds for VIT melded accessories, a must for Savage at the time).

So all in all, it may not be traditional progression content, but it is still most definitely worthy of being mentioned in this thread, due to the sheer difficulty of it and with how few have cleared it.
