    Which is funny because Savage and Extreme has been getting easier and easier.
    Inno Ex is literally the "dodge aoes" the fight where it has no waymarks and Tit Ex is literally "make sure to not cleave people with the big red glowing orb attached to you".
    Hades Ex is a lot easier than Thordin Ex on release as well.

    Savage was also made easier that they made Ultimate for people who wanted old Savage difficulty.
    If you compare e4s with a8s, or e3s with a3s, a8s and a3s has 5+ phases all with very tight mechanics.
    Meanwhile E1s is literally E1N, but with no aoe indicators. Even the orb phase in normal is harder than Savage.

    That's not really a bad thing though. They have been trying to get people into Savage, which is good.
    Why not gather a group of people to do Savage blind OP? With how few people actually do Savage, there's no shortage of people to do it blind with.

    I feel as though content is getting easier, I cleared hades with no clue what to even do in last phase, we had multiple people die upwards to 3 times a piece and still cleared it.....I think the difficulty level stopped at HW while this savage tier is at the level of Alexander creator, so maybe give savage a try it’s honestly much much much more easier then it looks.

    the not current ex trial usually moved to the normal duty finder...

    oh wait... join date on 2014 and doesn't know this ?
    are you the rare case of "I create this account waaay back then, but never happen to play it until recently, I don't even know what a raid finder is" person ?

    What we need is an extra fight at savage level. That way they can make X1S more accessible and have a smoother progression through fights. For some reason SE hasn't seemed to get the difficulty of the second fight right since deltascape (Chardanook was easier than Phantom Train, and Midgardsormr and Voidwalker are very unfriendly on PUGs).

    But are you surprised lol both Midgard and voidwaifu both requires some form of coordination while chardanook required virtually none lol pugs lack coordination which is honestly the only thing that sets them apart from statics. Phantomtrain was absurdly stupid lol so I won’t comment on that

    How do you, OP, think those youtube videos are made? Could it perchance be players that go in blind, learn the mechanics by seeing them, drawing conclusions to what they did wrong and adapting properly? Or are they popping up at random, given by a myterious entity or the devs themselves?

    Hint: It's the first one. Go in blind and learn the fights by yourself. People can clear on day 1 with comparably crappy gear, so they are not that hard, actually.

    While I agree a fifth fight would be nice, Voidwalker is a complete cakewalk. People simply don't pay attention. Adding a boss between him and Eden Prime wouldn't really do anything. And Levi's pretty much a chump outside Tsunami 2.
