Actually drinking a Soylent Mint Chocolate right now. One of the better flavors!

I loved the trailer opening with the Red Wings theme, one of my favorite songs in the franchise.

You do also kind of put all your eggs in one basket so to speak though. I don't have anything against Proton and the pricing makes sense if you value all their services and pay for Ultimate (though by my estimate, less sense if you are only looking for a smaller handful of services). However, if you go fully into Proton for everything, you're placing your trust into an entire stack of services and it can end up a single point of failure.

Honestly, this is a cute idea and a great little morning exercise and stretch to do regularly!

Active raider, still trying for the elusive week 1 clear maybe sometime in 7.X, though I may take a break from hardcore raiding in 7.0! Managed to get to Natural Alignment 2 week 1 for Abyssos, and got to Pangenesis in week 1 for Anabaseios, but no week 1 clear just yet.

Other than that though, I'm an MSQ enjoyer and just generally appreciate different aspects of the game, from story, to music, to boss and encounter designs. Seat of Sacrifice Extreme is the best fight in the game.

In terms of top tier fights relative to floor, I think P3S, P5S, and P10S take the cake here. I think P12S P1 is one of the more fun phase 1 execution-heavy two part fights, whereas I think P4S phase 2 is actually the best second phase. But second phase, I'm probably a little biased because Curtain Call is just significantly better than Dominion and Gaiochos 2 as far as soft-enrage damage mechanics go.

Anabaseios probably had the most even spread of enjoyable fights, with P9S being a slightly worse P5S (which is fine, because P5S is great), and P10S being just the best second floor fight this whole tier. P11S is worse than P3S by a longshot, but it's not a bad fight - it's just an overly safe, comfy design. P12S is fun even if I think phase 2 is largely just a remix of P8S phase 2.

I'm of the opposite opinion when it comes to P3S. I think P3S is the best designed fight of the whole tier, and actually probably still a top tier fight across the whole expansion.

I think oppo is safer because JP really needs the 6 marker to be on top of the ball (or do non-standard positioning, which is actually what I would recommend).
