Issue With End Game Raiding

[HylianBebop]

Alex gordias killed raiding for lots of ppl......

I can say for myself, it almost made me quit the game. The group I was in, which went through several replacements during A3S, spent 3+ months trying to clear it. I didn't get my clear until 4 months after first stepping foot into that turn. Absolutely the worst decision the dev team made was allowing that version of the fight to get through testing (and we all saw how they "tested" it .... SMH). Maybe if it was the last turn people might have dealt with it better, but A4S is actually a worse fight IMO (super boring mechanically). A3S mechanics are actually fun, it's just it was tuned way too high for the majority of groups, and individual skill couldn't carry/overcome anyone's shortcomings during progression for it. I know it got nerfed hard and has echo now, but I would say it's a fun fight even now that everyone should try out since it's less challenging. But yea, I was so close to saying screw it, this is ridiculous. A4S I heard also made a lot of people quit, too.
