    if we can get everyone to realize this maybe there will be a little more patience in the gaming world.
    It amazes me all of the noise over how the game is being paired down or catering to the lowest common denominator and yet when the game hands them a trainwreck party where you really have to pull out the stops just to clear, that's too much work.

    -I mean, I get it. It's annoying when you're just trying to get shit done but I'd rather deal with that kind of difficulty than the extremely convoluted mechanics that make Savage what it is. Give me duelling tanks who cleave the raid, ice mages, incidental healers, melee who don't know what those red circles mean. An Alliance-worth of new players that think mechanics are for cars.

    You'll never see me touch Savage content while it's relevant. I don't need to. Duty Finder is my Savage. Long may it reign.

    I'm sure you can see the difference between willingly signing up for and seeking hard content versus signing up for easy, casual content but it's hard or even impossible to do because players at level 80s have absolutely zero idea how to play their class

    That's usually the thing. The only reason it does exist is because the party is genuinely that bad (or doesn't care). Nobody's asking normal content to suddenly turn to savage, that's just blatant hyperbolic nonsense that people cater to as an excuse when people ask for difficulty to be normal+1/+2 instead of having a ludicrous jump between story/normal/extreme/savage content
