Yeh, maybe it'd be more interesting if the damage was 'unmitigatable' type, ie only shields help, % mits don't affect it at all (like the raidwide in E1S that always does 50% of your max hp), that way the bleed would also be the same strength and unaffected by % mits or gear scaling

I'll have you know that O3S was a 3rd fight which was very good and not backloaded as heck! E11S was pretty consistent the whole way through, and Cycles were just 'all of the crap all at once' but you'd already seen the stuff it had in it by then. But yeh, 3rd fights on average have more misses compared to the other tiers for some reason idk why
