Seriously --- doesn't sound any different from Coil, which will in fact disappoint/surprise some people. Coil isn't ridiculous, but it _does_ require either a static or lots and lots of time in PF. Those without significant time to burn won't be able to complete it, same as with Coil.

But old statements from devs (or even current statements) are not always accurate about actual difficulty (didn't they say Heavensward overworld mobs would be more difficult than ARR? And thats only true if more HP = difficult). We'll find out soon enough.
