An average static will need around 50-60 hours to clear a whole savage tier. Then you need to be lucky with your drops, because given how the weekly lockout works, you can easily go several weeks without dropping anything. If you're unlucky, you will have to kill the final floor eight times to make sure you obtain the weapon. The average raider will not see the weapon for the first 2-3 months. And things get even worse if we're talking about gear that drops in the first 2 turns. Finally, if you're pugging savage good luck, you probably won't even be able to obtain your weapon.

I honestly think that non-raiders don't really understand how terrible the weekly lockout in savage is and severely underestimate the amount of time and effort that raiding requires.
