It’s my understanding that the first tiers of savage, the fights are relatively easy compared to the final fights and it seems to be the case this time around.

Difficulty is reduced even further if you’re in a static group with similarly skilled players, at the end of the day it’s just a dance you have to learn and after that it’s auto pilot easy.

IMO people who cleared the whole savage tier in the first day or two in a static are pretty talented but again they are helped massively due to experience and same levels of skill in the group, but first clears are still impressive.

Try doing this in pf.

Not everyone plays savage and it doesn’t matter. If they did just cater for savage, they’d have significantly less subscribers.

I guess if you want genuinely hard gameplay throughout, play the souls games. And there’s always ultimates.
