I kinda get why they'd want to put that block there, if it truly is going to be harder than O4S by a large margin. I just hope it's a good difficulty that isn't based on simple "You're not dealing enough damage" kind of metrics, because that's only going to be solved by ilvl increases and that's a boring way to handle difficulty imo.

From what I've read from before the release of the patch, it's a very long fight, with a lot of individual responsibility (one player can cause a wipe), not so much a DPS check (even though there is one near the start).
Going from my memory of interviews though.

And I won't carry you either! I'd have to listen to you drunk-ERPing in Discord is why not (because I wouldn't be able to record it).

Finally set foot in Stormblood, not that there's any rush.
I finished all of the dungeons/trials/alliance raids along the way. The last Void Ark one, Dun whatever, was pretty hilarious. By far the most yolo deaths - I'm guessing people didn't run this one very much before alliance roulette became a thing. It was a bloodbath yet no wipes.
Luckily it seems a lot of the repeat mechanics are color coded. If some sort of ball gets tethered to me though there are a lot of possibilities so I just run it into a mage.

Yes, the lie that it announced by telling you what was going down the yellow's mouth to be spat out by its twin!
If you really want a good time, you'll love the Royal City of Rabanastre for lies. I actually mean that literally, but I don't want to 100% spoil it.

The yellow went into blue and the blue went into yellow and I wasn't aware that could happen the very first time I ever saw the fight after reading the lying wiki once an hour earlier.

Barring some sort of bug, this description is exactly how it works. The first eats the ball and despawns, and the second, same-color Atomos spits the same-color ball out that its twin had ingested. I'm not sure why you're calling it a lie unless aforementioned possibility of a bug?

An english reader might assume yellow balls always go to yellow mouths and vice versa.
It only took seeing it once to know how it really worked.

Angered apparently dropped out of the race, so seems it might not die anytime soon.
I guess people did ask for something really challenging, and they delivered, now wether or not it was TOO challenging I guess we'll see. That said I'd assume 3.2 will make it easier anyway(I don't think it's ilvl synced? or if it is, higher than currently probably?) so probably will see kills then.

Even the hardcore players have normal jobs/lives. They schedule two weeks off for Savage progression and could only do a week for Ultimate. Of course who could predict it would take only a day for Savage and they'd need more for Ultimate cause SE actually made a super hard encounter.

That JP group that cleared it, was fittingly enough, made up mostly of former Lucrezia members, who back in 2.0 were the original World First Coils clear static before they fell apart/fell out of the world first races. Hilarious that their old nemesis Bahamut returns, and they come out of the shadows to be the world's first again to put him down.
Reddit's also losing their shit about this group not even being a serious enough static to give themselves a name, and the fact that they didn't use the cookie cutter meta party combination to get the job done.
On a completely unrelated side note, this week's Jumbo Cactpot winning numbers was 1337. I lol'd.
