FF14 devs just keep doing your thing because my god

Not to be rude but it's because WoW's savage is mythic. Normal is meme tier, heroic is for the casuals, and mythic is for statics.

It's fascinating to me as an outsider seeing different people try to make comparisons, and I suspect sometimes from people who are also outsiders like me or only doing one of them and then guessing on the other. That said, I'm not making any judgment on your own comparison because I don't really know the answer myself, but I have seen different comparisons made.

From what I can tell/remember, I do believe that, in the current tier, where Savage and Normal/Heroic came out in the same week, Savage and Heroic world first took around similar length of time from their respective release. I don't know exactly what can be concluded from that except that difficulty between WoW and FFXIV may not be as simple as lining up different difficulty tiers.

Oh no I wasn't saying one was more difficult than the other. I was just saying that to accurately compare you have to put highest end against highest end. I wouldn't compare normal raids in 14 to LFR, for instance, as LFR is itself a totally different beast.
