    Clearly never played Gordias when it was current.

    There is so much margin for error in the new savage raids, you can have multiple deaths and still clear easily. Hell the other week the sch and I (war) duo'd nearly the last 5% of halicarnassus with everyone dead lol. It's really not that bad.

    At any rate, been watching Xeno's stream on and off throughout the day. I can't wait to relive Twintania with savage-ish mechanics. I always sucked at t9 so Nael will be tough. Haven't seen any Bahamut play

    Though, to respond to the person you were responding to, most fights do allow for a margin of error. Even in Eggs-D you can have some deaths without it preventing you from getting to Neo and onward.

    This tier feels pretty forgiving in comparison to the soul crushing static breaker that was Gordias.

    As for the most difficult fight in the game? I think it makes sense for it to punish any errors.

    You also couldn't die over and over in midas if you wanted to clear it.
