I think its ok how it is. Actually is not that hard, you just need to focus and know your rotation (something its supposed to be a basic if u are doing savage)
People clear it first day, myself I clear it on the first week and I dont play on statics, just pugs.
So no, its not overtunef, none of this tier is, they are very well tuned and fun for a first tier raid.
Well,Ranged got it easy in this fight.
Melee, on the other hand, while doing Quetus properly, we also need to gauge our distance for max melee range and dodge all 24 Nyx without dropping our dps and that is the hardest part.
The only issue with E2S is that E1S is so easy that you have a lot of people joining who have no business being in there. If anything, E1S needs to be made more difficult in future tiers to weed out the players who cant even do a rotation.
It's definitely the gatekeeper of this raid tier. It's a cakewalk for ranged dps and a pain in the ass for casters, but what else is new.

Technically people not clearing have a mechanics issue, not dps.
If your group keeps getting hit by nyx adds, there by giving you a 30% dmg down, it's them not doing mechanics properly.
Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
There was nothing hard about E2s, she is pretty much a punching bag, people not being able to do mechanics is the reason it’s hard to some, cause you can breeze thru Eden prime with a terrible rotation and limit knowledge of mechanics where is E2s required a lot more dps which is correct since there is no transition phase meaning dps never really stops and mechanic failure results in a 30% dmg down which is quite spicy.
I think it's just right. It was rough in the first week or 2, but that's fine. It just meant if you were doing mechanics correctly with one or 2 debuffs but still failing, it was a lack of damage somewhere along the line, most often from healers or a combination across the board.
E3 is probably the easiest 3rd fight we've ever had. Not to downplay it, but it's got nothing on Halicarnassus, Guardian or even Omega who was easier than those 2 imo. Not to mention Alexander. If you can do e2 you can do e3.
