Demystifying ultimate and savage

[ForteNightshade]

The fact is, they're not cancelling Ultimate, they're delaying it, and if something that makes up such an incredibly minor part of the game's overall content being delayed is enough to make you quit the game and riot, then you really need to look at why you're even playing. I love fishing with all my heart and soul, but if they announced they were delaying the Ultimate-equivalent of fishing - the 6 legendary fish of 5.5 - until 6.1, I'd be a little sad but I'd get over it, cuz there is TONS more fishing content out there, just like there is tons more raiding content out there besides just Ultimate. If the legendary fish which only come around once an expansion were literally the only reason I played the game, I'd really have to take a long hard look in the mirror and ask myself if this game is something I should be caring about so much.

Unless they announce three Ultimates next expansion, they're cancelling one.

As for the tons of raid content. There really isn't. Hence the complaints. We have Savage and Ultimate as our primary pieces of content. EX Primals exist, but are tailored towards casual players looking to get their feet wet in the raid scene. They aren't typically that appealing to long time raiders since, well... they're extremely forgiving. In the upcoming patch, we have Diamond Weapon now as the only "raid" content unless they release a second Delubrum Savage equivalent. So where exactly is this "tons of raid content" because I wouldn't exactly call a single boss fight that will be dead within an hour long term content.

Technically no.
If the next expac has two raids, it's because one of 6.x's 3 ultimates got pushed back to 7.x, which in turn is probably pushing one back to 8.x.
And this is all assuming that they don't plan on dropping Ults to 1 per expac like how we've been getting less dungeons, etc. too.
But just because something is getting pushed back doesn't mean something else is getting axed to make room for it.
