    Why isn't savage unlocked in 5.3/5.35?

    We have been in this tier for 2 months longer than it should be. Keeping savage locked will only continue to hinder those who actually enjoy the fights and those who want to help their friends out.

    When it comes to longevity of the tier, I would much rather just finish up my savage farms right now so I could focus more on the new relic steps. But now we're still continually forced to go in once a week, all while being barred from helping my friends if we have a different schedule. It's not like unlocking it would have a drastic impact on the amount of Shiva parties in PF, participation is already low enough that it's been stabilized for a while.

    I personally think that there should have been an exception for this tier specifically, as it is the least harmful tier to receive a bit of special treatment. Right now, there's no real incentive to gain best-in-slot gear outside of glamours and achievement purposes.

    And now you're telling me (based on past data) that I have to wait another month and a half (or another 77 days to be precise) before I can help my friends without any ramifications? Why?

    Yeah, all things considered it would be nifty if they'd unlock savage a little earlier than usual with what's going on right now.
    However, I can also see the logic in using the lockouts to stretch the content out during an unexpected lul.

    most raiders have already quit doing weekly reclears. unlocking savage at the start of 5.3 would invalidate the whole "catch-up" incentive of what the odd numbered patches are basically for for gear.
