    An unexpected neat thing from delaying savage was having everyone on the server sitting in Aporia to get into Savage. I used to love seeing everyone outside in North Thanalan and on the doors of Alex. I understand why they removed the requirement of needing to be on the same map but it was really nice seeing everyone in one spot getting ready and excited together.

    Also a big fan of the delay. Had time to enjoy the MSQ and Raid Story and do the EX with friends even though I had to put a lot of time into work. The delay also meant that I could help out with making pots and food for everyone on the weekend.

    I'm taking Lore way too seriously. And I'm not sorry about that.

    Delay on Savage means time for MSQ, time for EX, time for doing raid content slowly, time to craft, and time for Island Sanctuary.
    All enjoyable things.

    either that or just don't download the data until then (though obviously maintenance is non-ideal)

    I enjoyed being able to not feel rushed to hurry through the story and normal mode just to get to savage. It was nice to just take my day on day / week 1, enjoy the MSQ and other aspects of the new patch at my own pace. Does that mean I blew through it and consumed it all? No where close. But I didn't feel like I had to put everything on the back burner to get ready for raid.

    I like that for our group, we can spend some time this week to work on our strategy for the fight and not have to rush to get the crafted gear, wait on BiS, etc. As an onicrafter, I didn't have to rush and spend the day gathering / crafting not early gear, but food and pots.

    Overall, I liken it to exactly like the first tier is after an expansion is released. There is some potential adjustments to jobs based on changes, and this week allows players to play with new changes in a more relaxed manner. I would highly recommend going with the approach for future tiers.
    I would prefer no savage tiers. Why lock things behind something I can't do with out 7 other people who are always judging every little thing I do and blaming me even when I'm not the one who screwed up?

    Savage causes anxiety and stress, it is not fun at all.

    "This content doesn't appeal to me so no one should have it." is what you're really saying here.

    Then don't do savage? You literally don't have to do it if you don't enjoy it. Like what even is this response?



    At any rate, I enjoyed having a week to chill out, get myself all situated with crafting materials, get my crafted gear penta'd, do the MSQ at a chill rate to really enjoy the story and take it in, and still have some good downtime to farm the new Extreme with friends and my static. I especially loved having the week delay since I swapped off SAM to play NIN and got some good time to practice which anybody who swapped to a new job for this tier probably appreciated.

    I also think it will be nice in the future for giving people time to play around with Jobs should they get changes to get a feel for them before going into savage. I'm hoping that this is a regular thing.

    I don't care if you like savage. If that's what you like go nuts. I'm not expecting it to be taken away anytime soon.
    I just really dislike that rewards I want are locked behind content that I can't complete. My experience with statics is that they don't work with people and PF groups break up after three wipes.
    The content might as well not exist for me. I think I'm well justified in being upset by it.
