    Alexander Creator (Savage): Is that boss a plane??

    Trailer for Patch 3.4 is out. Creator stuff starts at around 30 seconds in.

    Trailer with timestamp

    So far it looks infitnitely more interesting than anything we've gotten outside of A3S/A8S. Looks like they tried hard to make it look and feel interesting.

    It is. Even the transformation animation is the same.
    They had me on that.

    What is the lock for?

    He's just making a joke about the new Raid Finder having ilvl requirements to enter fights. If they make A11/12 require more than like, i235~240 to enter then it'll be impossible for some groups to actually enter the later fights even if they clear A9/10. Chances are they're not that stupid, but there's definitely some people genuinely worried that we're going to be unable to progress simply because RNG didn't grace us with enough gear to reach i255 or whatever to enter if they choose to set it that high. When they implemented Raid Finder at the tail end of this tier we actually had to start bringing different people to our alt/trap A8 runs because we had people using full 220 crafted gear and you needed i225 to enter 7 and 8.

    Raid finder I thought was just used so you didn't have to go out to the entry point location. I cannot see that getting in the way of just using the access point.

    You know, so many people seem to believe this but it's just not true.

    3.3 patch notes specify that all future raids will be accessed through the raid finder. The access point has been deleted. If you click on him he sends you to the raid finder menu.

    I see no problem with this, then they can make easier content that will last lucrezia more than 3 days while still being accessible to the rest of us :^)

    Yeah like Kipling said, you literally cannot use the entry point to enter Alex since the introduction of raid finder and they said it's going to stay that way.

    I think they will likely just add an exception to item level for full parties of 8 (as there is right now for party composition) but I also legitimately think he may be wanting to use item level restrictions as a way to forcibly elongate content.

    If he does, prepare for the fucking salt.

    I think we'll have to wait until the page for Alexander: The Creator comes up.

    If you go to the Dungeon preview it tells you the ilv requirement for the 3.4 dungeons.

    Really hopping there is more to that Alex fight then him just sitting on the side like Sepherot.

    If it's like Midas, we'll get another surprise form that's not in normal

    Pretty sure that's the transition from add phase to final phase where he'll use ultimate move that might actually force tanks to use LB3 to survive through.

    You can see the party killing a winged add right before that.

    Well that's obvious there will be adds / add phase, but it's going to be boring if you fight him like that through out the fight.
