I agree with you up to same extent but you have to remember people moan to extremes because Gorgias was way "too hard" I remember it very well (specially A3s). So in theory you we had our chance to feel a "harder" content back then. Due to complaints was tone down dramatically and people weren't happy about it. It became "too easy". then what they did was split difficulty between 2 sets , clear example A9S A10S / V1S V2S the "easiest" one and A11S A12s / V3S V4S the "hardest" one. That way Savage , actually , carters for everyone. Funny thing I found A12s easier than V4s... probably cause Neo felt too long of a fight because you had to clear ex first maybe? I don't know I guess each to their own. Now we have Bahamut extreme, nothing extreme about it it's just too long of a fight that's why I haven't bothered with it.

I think it's hilarious that they gave Lalafells a play-dead emote with their butt struck into the air (really didn't they see what's gonna happen with that), but we don't get a sleep emote cause people could abuse it.

That bit about healers is so false it's insulting.

It should especially be insulting to any career healers in PvP, or anyone who was willing and able to switch from before 4.0. As a truth I saw with my own eyes, [I]many times[/I,] we didn't have any issues at all with lack of healers then, nor was there nearly as many issues with people refusing to heal or entire alliances without healers.

This is literally why PvPers say SE doesn't listen to us. That statement is such an insult.

It only confirms what I already surmised in the PvP forums: Power takes a backseat to popularity when it comes to balancing. Healers were never exactly popular in spite of their power and they're probably real happy they finally managed to fill alliances with green for a change, lul.

I think it's very balanced that 2 healers can hold middle and fend off 6-10 dps trying to focus target one down. Yep.

**RiyahArp** · 01-03-2018 09:55 PM

Third overrates how many people switched. A lot of people healed seal rock or shatter because no one else would, and we'd lose otherwise. But most of them would easily change back to dps given the chance. Even now in RW they aren't playing healer to heal people, they play it as a overly potent tank. Nerfs to them have to come, but I don't think anyone should expect healers to just suck it up and keep playing; I expect pvp to full on embrace DPS/Tanking as a binary meta instead of the old trinity one.

Q. Please make more 8 man dungeons.
A. It won't be an 8 man dungeon, but we are planning difficult 4 man content instead.

That'd be a nice change.

Or add a savage 4 man version of all existing raids.
