    Alexander Midas Req.

    Not sure if this has been posted anywhere, I couldn't find it if it was. Does anyone know yet what the requirements to enter Alexander Midas Savage will be? iLevel required to enter and will we have to have cleared Alexander Gordias Savage 1-4?

    There's not going to be an ilvl until it's put on the DF menu

    I know something was said in the live letter saying you won't have to clear AS1-4, but just Midas normal. Ilvl will probably be recommended at i200 but I'm not sure on that.

    Alexander Savage 3 and 4's recommended item level is i200 (arguably), A5S will be 210 for sure.

    You'd think A3S and A4S would have a higher ilvl requirement considering A5S-A7S won't compare. LOL.

    There's literally never been a case where the fight that comes after a previous one had a lower requirement...

Unless of course people were lying and the difficulty was not the dps checks.


    Yeah I was thinking about this. If the dps required for Midas will be lower then Gordias doesn't that translate to it being easier and not requiring the same iLevels to beat as Gordias? If this is the case why would they even recommend a higher iLevel?

    I understand historically the next raid has had a higher recommended iLevel but historically hasn't the next raid always been more difficult as well? If people can beat Gordias Savage with their current iLevels I'm thinking Midas will feel very easy, if not a joke.

    They can apply roughly the same dps requirements for A5S+ as in A3S+, since the intendent ilvl is 20-30 lvls higher. Additionally they can require you to have more health.

    => higher intended ilvl in general

    _________

    Beside that, the intended ilvl for Thordan is higher than that of Bismark, but the dps check on Bismark is more strict (when attending on intended ilvl of 165(?)) than the Thordan one @195.

    So.. There seems to be no problem with that.
