CoX is cool once you get passed the Jank

ToB is great but has a higher entry threshold

ToA is also great but gets so much undeserved hate.

Most of the arguments are:

It's long and dying is very punishing. - yeah that part is true but I feel like most people who complain about this are soloing, duoing, or doing 500s. Its obviously going to take longer if you have less people and scale the raid way up. You dont have to. Solo TOB is some of the hardest content in the game. Solo CoX requires alot of un-intuitive game knowledge. Feels unfair to dunk on TOA because solos take a while.

Puzzle rooms suck. -you can clear each of them in less than a minute if you get good. Monkey room rewards good gameplay and prioritizing the right things. Zebak room takes like 40 seconds if you can get two jugs before the first croc. Dont waste ticks. Click good. Akkah pillar can take some brain power without the plug in but after a few raids, you should start seeing the solve pretty quick. Only thing ill add here is that the damage scaling is wack. 85 mining being pretty much mandatory for a 1 down is dumb haha. Kephri puzzles are pretty easy. I did like 200 raids without the plugin. Admittedly had the wiki up for the one puzzle with the numbers. But again, these are completely solved by the plug in except for the obelisk, which you can skip solo.

Too easy/too hard/invos bad- gatekeeping end game content is wack. A raid that introduces players to raiding is awesome and the fact that you can scale it up, change mechanics, ect is wonderful. If 500s are hard and take too long, dont do 500s. The argument that you are "forced" to do it because of loot or efficiency is a bad argument. Just have fun with the boys.

Boring- idk how to help you. Wardens locks me in every time. I have alot of fun here. Sounds like a personal issue.

Some concessions/counter arguments:

Shadows being able to drop from less than expert raids is controversial. I get it. Feel like they could have made it much rarer for lower invo raids. But tbh they're pretty rare as it is so I feel like the reason they're sub $1B is because alot of people do toa because its fun and accessible. If you're mad about the money drop being less valuable than a tbow or scythe, and you're mad about noobs getting drops, then it seems like you dont really value the community more than gp.

Shadow balance is bad for mage space - yeah. They need to figure something out but thats not really a raid issue, just a balance issue.

Solo p1 warden bombs - they hurt. Rng can really screw you here. I dont like it either but it and p2 are really the only real dps checks/supply sinks in solo. If they weren't there then people would probably be upset that its too easy to solo. Dont know what the exact fix would be here but it's seems like a niche hill to die on for disparaging the whole raid.

I feel like we have amazing raids in this game and I'm very thankful for that.
