A new difficulty tier for raids

[PMSJordan]

Hello,

I have a suggestion for the Devs. I and I'm guessing many others would appreciate a middle of the road difficulty for Raids.

An example from another game would be WoW. It has Normal, Heroic, and Mythic modes for their raids.

In my opinion Normal mode is too easy and Savage destroys most of the player base. So much so that many players are to scared to even attempt Savage.

To me personally the old Coil raids had the perfect mix of difficulty. It was way harder than normal, but not as cruel as Savage.

It would be very nice to have a difficulty been the two. Maybe even call them Extreme Raids. Plus it would get more people to try some harder content.

Thanks,
PMS Jordan

The issue is, what would be the reason to do them? Normal Raids already give gear, which is 10 ilvls below Tomestone Gear, and also 20 ilvls below Savage Raid Gear (which also is the dyeable version of Normal Raid gear). If there's nothing for people to farm, that content will die very VERY fast

lol I was expecting to see someone ask for a difficulty harder than savage when I saw the title.

Yeah, aside from however much extra time it would take to balance such a tier, I agree the main issue would be what does it give? It can't give normal raid gear or savage raid gear, but it also can't give normal tomestone ilvl gear because tomestone gear does that and then alliance raid gear does it as well the next patch. So gear is basically out of the question. So what would each fight give?

But we do have something between normal and savage, it's extremes. Sure it's not raids but trials, but many would say that a trial and a raid aren't really much different.
