I am not posting here very often, so I don't know if it was reaction to people complaining about the way way higher difficulty than A5S, or just some kind of "we cannot afford to have another Gordias 3-like disaster" paranoia, but I think these nerfs came earlier than they should.

A6S is fight that gets a lot easier with every bit of extra gear you have, so in a few weeks, even people that were struggling would clear it just fine.

I cleared the fight last Saturday and I had a lot of fun. It was not overly hard, especially with current ilvl available. I am not sure how big the nerfs are, but the only justified one is probably the supercharge one, because meeles, tanks and ranged could already survive those, just healers and casters without shields could not.
