Unreal Savage Raid Tiers

[grinkdaboy]

similar to how unreal trials were, i think it would be cool if they made unreal savage. take like fights from different tiers and smush them together, like

e5s, a10s, o11s, t8 (nael)

or just take old raid tiers and scale them up so it'd just be a1-a4, etc

i think it would be a cool thing to have for both new and old players, for example, i started playing towards the end of stormblood and wasn't quite good enough to get into raiding and so i got carried through o9s and o10s

I dunno how much of an audience it would have unless they came up with some cool rewards, but I think it would be cool. I'd like to be able to run alphascape again, that was a fun tier.

I think it should just be a daily or weekly challenge that rotates the way Frontline does. Switching it every 4 months would be too slow.

Thank you, but no. Unreal was hard enough, we don't need another tier of content that 90% of people won't get to complete.

Unreal wasn't hard though? It wasn't much different from doing the extreme versions of the fight when they first launched.

Anything that requires thought or awareness is too hard for a lot of people sadly

And what leads you to this assessment? And based on that assessment, players who could not clear an unreal trial are what? _______________

Fill in the blank please. I wonder what the clear rates on the three unreal trials so far have been. Very curious indeed.

Personally I felt Shiva Unreal (the only one I ever did, to be fair) was incredibly over-tuned for what it was meant to be. Unreal felt like it was meant to appeal to a more casual audience and ended up initially attracting a lot of casual players when it released, who proceeded to get demolished by the DPS check. It almost felt like the devs had play-tested it in on-ilevel melded gear, failing to understand that most people would be doing it in downscaled gear with ignored melds.

Ah, I see what they mean JamieRose. You just don't play well at all.

I have a suspicion Unreal was a mini test for the stat squish. If they did bring it out again, it would be nice to have more than one fight a patch. Everyone got so bored of it so quickly
