    Aside from the gaze mechanic, the tells in M7 are standard fare (seeing past a gigantic boss model notwithstanding). The difficulty comes from running around the arena on cue, and in that respect, I'd say that M6 is easier here just because of the distances involved.

    In my experience, it's M5 that consistently racks up the body count. M8 seems to suffer from lack of Slice is Right experience and that some folks don't quite grasp, "it's always: he teleports to the edge, dashes through the middle, and then does a conal cleave; so stop running to where he just teleported."

    My team cleared M5 in about 6 pulls blind - we did have some problems with the background dancer frogs and the getting into the lights and stuff, but those who struggled with it have disabilities/mobility issues and the rest of us were able to scrape them off the floor enough for a clear.

    It's almost identical to Barbariccio's big conal attack. We actually called it that in voice chat. "Dash+ (Savage) Barbary" and didn't have any issues after that. We struggled with trying to figure out the best approach to the adds a few times, but that was mostly from trying to figure out whether they needed to be separated, and experimenting with a way to try to stop the countdown from increasing as fast (which we still haven't figured out on our own; time to go see if there even is a way.)

    aint played the fight myself yet, but from what Ive seen its a resounding thumbs up, my bf was losing his mind wiping over and over and i was sitting thinking, wow this is amazing

    seams to be a divisive fight, but its level 100 content. deal with difficulty for once.

    It seems that people who are used to Extremes and Savage fights are like "HELL YEAH THIS IS AWESOME" - especially since this was a blind prog and most of us don't get that since we'll tackle Extremes or Savages a little while after release.

    And people who expect normal mode to be extremely easy hate it.

    Importantly, it's optional, so I can enjoy not dealing with it.

    Vive la résistance!

    Finalement, Boucles d'or goûta le porridge dans le bol de Bébé Ours. "Miam Miam, ce porridge est parfait!" dit-elle, et elle mangea le bol entier de porridge.

    It's just an unfortunate intersection of references – the floor being Nine and the buildings we have access to are 11 and 14.

    I love them all. I'm going to enjoy them until they become trivialized by muscle memory and ilevel.

    I hope we get more fights like this! The multiple arena changes, and Brute Abombinator's environmental attacks, and the pace are just so good! Just a good old fashioned, simple, but effective slugfest.

    Seems about as difficult as any new fight that comes out. Heck getting hit by things is actually very forgiving as long as you don't get petrified.
