AkinaruMiko: I thought I would hate adds in Savage but this has been fun. The painful part is trying to get through this wall in Party Finder; this is my 4th day on it and I can't get a group to push through it. q.q

shiro12okami69: Im on a break when it comes to raiding currently, and I don’t rly think I will return to it, but I think many enjoy the current design . But I’m not up to date anymore anyway so can’t rly tell. I’m just waiting for explo by now. Since I didn’t rly like raiding around p8s probably, it’s to many mechanics and to many layers by now for me to enjoy. Still do like EX and unreal tho,since it doesn’t need time investment lol

Keamar: As a tank i love and hate this phase. I love it because its fun and interesting. I hate it because if the DPS don't push enough damage there is almost nothing i can do to get through this phase. PF has been such a pain.

cyrona5914: how the fuck can u see ANYTHING with all those skill animations

plat6164: Cole go to bed, you're drunk!

SuperYummybuns: Unhinged is how I'd describe you and the recent flip flopping around the state of the game, what they're doing to jobs (though I don't necessarily think homogenisation is the wrong characterisation) and whether you're staying or going.

I get that Youtubers need to be loud and rambling for views, but its rough watching someone I used to go to for a calmer, balanced perspective of the game lower him/herself into the noisy cesspit of community ranting, before the patch is released proper.

Zoeila: I wish the petrify mechanic required you to keep the adds alive

jaquanepatterson2537: Keep ya chin up king, you'll find your chula(Who won't abandon you)

xaahd: Give each job a second spec. This would allow people to plays jobs differently based on their preference or situation without contributing to the "button-bloat" that controller kids cry about all the time. This raid tier might be great, and that's worth mentioning (as you've said) but that's far from the solution this game needs to not be complete ass. Each patch they make the jobs more and more identical to one another - it's to the point where you can just randomly pick a healer job if you need a healer, and same with other roles. Jobs are meaningless at this point. Maybe they need to take a break from catering to the cringe RP'ers and housing weirdos and actually fix the glaring foundational issues. Sorry, but I don't care if your cat ears clips through your favorite hat. I DO care that my tanks all use the same skills just with different names.

ugxsan: I saw you in M5S prog! That group didn't clear, but I did get my clear this week, so I've had a chance to bash my head on the adds here. Really love the design of that phase. More of this, please!

asteroidxarmageddon2354: Imagine if Lynx stayed around long enough to see these Savage fights.

Also we did have some fun add phases in the most recent Alliance Raid, Jeuno: The First Walk.

tomasdawe9379: I have to disagree on one point. Proper AoE DPS rotations really helped in Criterion Savage fights

kuronaialtani: People wanted add fights again and the team said “aight let’s fuckin go”

KallistoLumina: Im 3 days there and stuck but i hope that SE didnt gave up that new raids design because some are crying. I prefer a completely new fresh and FUN design that is to hard for the mayority in pf week 1 then the boring shit we got the last tier and the mayority of the last expansion. It really feel how a savage fight should be

cynthiastarcrossed: Going to be honest. I'd be fine with an add phase if the dps classes aoe were anywhere near the same. You have Viper just shitting on this phase just pressing buttons like normal and then you have classes like Ninja that sometimes can't even clear the phase because the potency they get per minute in aoe is less than half of other melee.

1337penguinman: I love how they seem to be adding in an element of chaos and thinking on the fly back to the game. Something other than "memorize the dance steps."

SaraAliciaCaster: Can I just say

White text on every single skill animation making screen white

Is a very bold choice

MyGenericName: Mch is easily one of my fav jobs it is just so much fun and i hate that it is just not great when push comes to shove however. A big reason for that is when you compare it to the other phys ranged, who are more or less part of the group to enable the much more potent jobs, specifically melee at the cost of their own personal dmg. Mch just cant keep up with how this game is made that act of enabling the more potent jobs is more desirable and more often then not flat out better then the dmg a mch can offer. imo this is backwards, a mch being able to make the most out of their kit and getting their big numbers should be the more desirable phys range option over a jobs that just by existing is enabling another job to just invalidate the existence of mch. It is almost funny and the most mch thing i have ever heard that for mch to actually be a worth while choice it needed a fight to cater to its strengths specifically. I will say however that this is really only the case when outside of casual content. mch is perfectly fine in 99% of all the stuff out there and often my go to choice for dps. I have also met a few mch that are so good you would swear they are playing a melee with the numbers they are pumping out. there is always exceptions to the rules but mch being labeled a griefer job in savage and ultimates isnt far off from its reality sadly. I love mch and i still play it. it just doesnt keep up to a dancer enabling the melee tho. So long as the game is like this, and phys range will only realistically be taken up by one party slot. mch just doesnt fit

lsmith604: WRONG. This is an ass take. Ads are not interesting, they break up the flow of a fight. If you want this for ads just go do criterion dungeons. AOE rotations are not interesting or engaging, that's why they are almost only used in dungeons because dungeons are not interesting or engaging until you get the boss fights. Quit this hot-take clickbait nonsense.
