    I love Dawntrail and the raids are a good addition.
    It’s because they are fighting with a beast soul and we have no regulator

    Because the beast souls offer so much power and the other 7 are just soul simulacrum in the vein of the endless by the standards of the Arcadion we are the ones fighting with a massive handicap and we are risking true death as we don’t have a regulator

    As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.

    I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess

    Mm, yes, these raids are good. A lot better than those giant hitboxes. Some of them weren't managed on the first pull either, although I was able to figure out the mechanics pretty much as they happened just because, y'know, they're still telegraphed so if you see a lot of patterns happening outward it's obviously a donut attack etc.

    I love the new encounters too. Each one even has its own soundtrack, and clearing them felt refreshing.

    I honestly don't even care about the story being good on paper but poorly executed again (characters showing up for no logical reason etc.). While I do enjoy a good story accompanying a raid, as long as the fights are fun to do, I'm happy.

    Looking forward to the hell that savage can become with all of these mechanics ^_^.

    The fact that the fights even got me to consider coming out of raid retirement for Savage is a huge compliment, since even Ultimate wasn't doing it.

    Story is just Chapter 3 from Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door and I am absolutely here for it.

    This was enjoyable overall. A direct hit. Honey B Lovely, I have high expectations for your fight.

    SPOILERS INCOMING


    First and foremost, I want to give a brief description of my experience with the expansion so far; I hated the MSQ. The ideas were great, the beats were fun, but the execution was horrendous to me. I've been playing this game since 1.x beta, and I've never seen such sloppy awful writing from this team. It really put such a sour note in the entire expansion.

    All the fun dungeons, trials, everything - I was just a grump. Whether it was fun or not, that MSQ really ruined the mood for me.

    Until this raid...

    I can say without a shadow of a doubt, this is some of the most fun I've had in any raid setting in this entire game from 1.x through to now! THE RAID IS SO INCREDIBLY FUN!!!

    The writing is clunky, but works! I'm so invested in the story and I want to unravel this incredible mystery!! The character designs are just stunning! In and out of their transformed selves - oh my goodness!! They look so interesting and new!!

    The mechanics had me smiling ear to ear! I kept saying to myself - "You tricked me! What do you mean it's not just a pattern to be followed, but I actually have to engage with the mechanics and figure out what to do on the fly!!" The stages were so dynamic and the use of space couldn't have be more exciting!

    The gear... well, I mean, it's wrestler gear so you know.. a choice lol.

    Overall, this raid alone has made this expansion for me. I enjoy so much about this expansion; zones, gear, music, everything except the MSQ; and low and behold this raid came in like a whirlwind and just kicked my socks off! Literally, the last fight is my favorite fight in the entire game. I can't wait to see what they do in the future!

    If you haven't done it, or normally don't do the normal 8man - please do it! I can't wait to see everyone's feedback with this great new raid!
    I'm with you entirely buddy. Good times ahead for side content i think.

    It's like they asked me exactly what types of fights I like. Chaotic, fast paced, punishing, clear visual telegraphs, 0 puzzles, villains that are just happy to be there and fight, I loved it. My first time doing the second fight I got a 20 minute in progress one so I knew this was gonna be a good tier. If savage lives up to the normal, I'll be eating good.
