    We'll see what happens after the stat squish. We should lose most of the extra stats we get in LotA, Sycrus Tower, etc. Maybe they'll be closer to Dun Scaith in difficulty (and fun). And hopefully people will spam Crystal Tower a bit less.

    This is what I'm hoping for. I make a point of (almost) never leaving regardless of what I get in roulette, and I can count on one hand the number of times I ditched anything since I started playing. Better to take your lumps and just get it done, imo. Hopefully with the squish we won't end up skipping mechanics anymore... for a while, at least.

    I'm expecting alliance raid, normal raid, and trial roulettes to be an absolute mess for at least a month.

    I welcome it! Better than yet another Bore Tower run.

    Well that's disappointing. RIP my dreams. D:

    He also said people could expect to see some mechanics in syrcus tower that haven't been seen for a while.

    I believe he said unsynced runs should change very little

    CT raids will probably be a noticable change atleast with the first one since that became available pretty much right after players cleared praetorium and I think awarded ilvl 80? gear and was tuned for an ilvl below that. The stat squish I believe happens post 50 so people may not be face rolling that one like they do now with ilvl 120-130 gear bought with tomes. Same may happen on the second one but I imagine not to as much of a degree since it was tuned for a higher ilvl. The last of the 3 probably wont be noticeable since it came near the end of ARR.

    He said doing content at ilevel shouldn't feel different if they do things right. Min ilevel should end up a bit easier while doing content overgeared or unsynced should be harder to the point where they were talking about adding a super echo buff while unsynced allow us to stomp old content in a similar way to how we currently do unsynced.
