Excluding Players from Ultimate Savage is Not the Right Move

[Nalfein]

Gating super savage sounds fair enough to me, they probably want people to be ready for this.

So what you are saying is that content is to be cleared only and not enjoyed?

After dozens of failed Susano Ex runs, I guarantee, 175%, no matter how much I adore a fight, it's not fun unless you clear. Ultimately, that's the purpose of this game. If you want to enjoy a stroll through the Aurum Vale, go for it, but you'd still have to kill things, and there's still a timer ticking. I didn't make up the goal of clearing things, the game did. Oh and I hope you went in there alone because unless you're a premade, the other 3 unfortunate souls who queued along with you might have a thing or two to say on the matter.
Also, who's going to enjoy what you're suggesting? The non-raiders who will have the entire party on their case for under-performing and failing mechanics? Or the seven other people whose time is wasted because a single person can wipe the rest of the party in this tier of difficulty? Mind, I don't condone the toxic behavior I've seen from the raiding community in this game. But burying your head in the sand and pretending that's not exactly what's waiting for these hypothetical people whose banner you're curiously championing is asking for a world of disappointment and hurt. And on the flip side, those serious raiders who are here to get content done deserve better than someone who just wants to 'enjoy the content' rather than clear it.

If you can't clear HM, you have no business in extreme. Sounds exactly like what you are saying.

That is literally exactly what I was saying. In roughly the same words, too, lmao, wot?

By that logic, we should ban at least 50 percent in this playerbase of not more to never be able to clear Omega savage. Because they obviously will never be able to do it.

That's a strawman argument at best, a complete derailment that makes no sense at worst. No one is "banning" anyone from any content. They are more than welcome to try it out - once they clear the requisitions the game has set for them. Push comes to shove, they'll be able to have a go at it when the next expansion hits and we can unsync it, just like how Yoshi-P himself encouraged more casual players to try the HW end-game content now that it can be unsynced. They just won't get world-first.
You're the one saying they'll never be able to set foot in there if they don't get it right this instant this very moment right now, not me.

If you can't clear O4S, I can't for the life of me figure out why it matters whether or not you can get into Ultimate. I'm still waiting for a good reason as to why this needs to change.

I think they just want to see the fight, you know for the experience, they did imply they didn't care about beating it.

Youtube? Because otherwise they will see, what, first 10 seconds of fight?

[Keridwyn]

Wait so they locked the absolute hardest content in the game behind the almost hardest content in the game?

That seems...normal. I mean it's not as if you're going to need the gear and skills gained in one to beat the other.

Oh wait...

I apologize on behalf of the Odin server for unleashing this nuisance into the world. Gotta work on our troll sealing mechanisms.

I wasn't going to post but man I gotta quote you because it's exactly what I thought when I saw his World.
Also I apologize on behalf of all Lalafells.

It's fun to see a special starflake ranting about pointless things though.

[Sandpark]

Nah it's a perfect move.

You can't make super challenging raid content for raider lifers and let anyone come in day one with no experience. Wait a few months to a year and the path there will be easier.
