    This is specific content targeted towards a specific demographic, that requires a specific amount of people, each with specific sets of lost actions, and playing with a specific role within the alliance. Pretty much doomed content, if not for the help of discord or other third party support. It's going to get incredibly difficult for newer players to get into after the expansion drops, assuming Yoshi doesn't do anything to address it. Regardless, I'm personally gonna try to clear and farm it after new bozja drops because once I get the sets I want there is no reason to run it beyond that.

    It doesn't help that running it is mega expensive.

    The new actions that come out better be super easily farmed else I highly doubt it will help

    I mean its "savage" after all, but to have 48 people to know every mech is impossible and you need 48 of then to get a clear. without discord or going in blind in pfs wont get you any progress, you need to be able communicate to do this.

    The instance is liable to become much easier in 5.55 due to the addition of the "prestige" ranks that grant damage bonuses on top of whatever new actions they release.

    I do wonder if there's going to be some kind of ultimate challenge for people who've grinded out both the haste gear and the prestige, though.

    Devs said DRS will be hardest content still, we are getting a new mini raid but its going to be a crit engage like Castrum. There will also be some new 1v1s, I suppose those will be the most challenging of new content until folks figure out strategies.

    Baldesion is both significantly easier and profitable. DRS has far steeping punishment for failure and no incentive to repeat once you've cleared. What keeps BA alive is it being essentially a 24 man raid with more people.

    It's fun content. I've cleared it on numerous alts and have one I may give a try when i have the time. I haven't looked into discord with DRS yet but plan on it eventually.

    No, it is.
    I mean, you need 8 people to know every mechanics in savage. Get 6 groups that cleared a savage tier, you'll get far enough competent people.
    Alright, many players I've seen use... External tools and they're completely lost without those. Those will have to do extra effort.

    But honestly, the DRS mechanics are really easy, they're hard punish but if you can't res without specific actions, there's a reason. If you could res anyone, the content would've been cleared within hours when released.
    I can think of 1, 2, maybe 3 hard mechanics during the whole DRS. It's sure scary because a run can last 2 hours, but honestly it's really easy. Diamond EX is harder than any bosses.

    DRS is specifically managed and Ran through discord, no one forms groups for it in game, BA is actively ran on the Primal foreys server from what I can see so :shrug:
