I originally started savage back during the second tier of Alexander, and (aside from a short break during part of Omega) have cleared pretty much every tier since. After Pandemonium, I was honestly considering taking a break since it was... well, not great. But of course I had to do FRU, and I'm glad I did because M1S-M4S were some of the best raid content we've ever had. I don't think we've ever had such a good blend of fun fights with challenge before.
So naturally, I was excited for 7.2. But holy crap what a disappointment. This tier is the absolute worst we've ever had. M6S is the only saving grace in an otherwise dumpster fire of a tier. Like many statics this tier, mine (we've been together since mid-Eden), called it quits afterwards. It's just not worth the effort, if the fight designers aren't putting any effort in either.
Even the raid storyline fell flat, which was also disappointing after such a strong start in the first tier. But the main point is that the fights themselves are utterly unfun. I actually don't know anyone whose static stayed together after this tier. I keep hearing that the tier got praised, but everyone I personally know absolutely hated it. I can only imagine that the praise is coming from people who want to see the game fail.
PLEASE do not continue this kind of lazy fight design in the future. Look to M1S-M4S as the standard going forward. Those were truly the best we've ever had it. I'd love for a reason to re-sub soon, and continue to do savage in 7.4.
