Enrage timer raid design is causing all the problems

[Rockette]

And as you rightly put. Tank DPS, healer DPS, DPS DPS. There was a post recently about how 70% of a scholar parse was broil. Is that fun design? I don't think so. My reason for posting this is not the raids are "too hard", but because people are posting about "unpopular dps" classes and how some classes are avoided for extreme clears. Do read a bit before jumping to conclusion thanks.

Scholar used to have broil, miasma, miasma2, bio, energy drain, bane and sacred soil right up until Shadowbringers.

Until a bunch of people cried on the forums that healers should only heal and DPSing is too hard. Now you have 70% broil. See what happens when you cry for things to be made pants on head easy?

Which, this savage tier in comparison to a few others, actually is. As others have said, the DPS checks in this tier of raid are not too high, or high at all. Let's not forget this important bullet point of the Shadowbringers live letter:



In terms of job balancing: Yes, we go through this exact thing every single expansion. Jobs are released. Savage is released along with a balance patch. Players progress. Square monitors job balance / Savage clears and releases another balance patch later in the tier.

Crying on forums continue.
