Yeah except zfinn has always caused somewhat of a endless loop in other areas, like Tb or even arena against a lot of teams. I’m not seeing the problem. Plus the only thing they care about is their precious sith raid, if it didn’t allow for a p3 solo there would be no change.....nerf traya

This also just kills motivation to build teams to do hsith. Like no one wants to do dozens of restarts just to get a good run with 1 team yet the devs are nerf hammer happy against any new team that can consistently do better than the teams that are suboptimal* but the best we could do at the time. Part of the excitement with new toons is them allowing for teams better than what we had yet the devs seem hell bent on this idea that they should only be fractionally better than teams at release.

*i dont consider a team that requires restart after restart for reasons unrelated to user error or rng going completely south on youto be an optimal team. Optimal teams are ones where you'll get a good result regardless of whether rng aligns to give you ideal conditions or a mixed bag.

This! I'm dreading the eventual "fix" because with P3 being covered the whole raid feels less like a chore. I mean kitchen sink in P4 still sucks and I have to force myself to participate. When they "fix" Finn/3p0, if its back to chex mix in P3, I will likely quit trying P3. I think chex mix is the **** most frustrating thing. All the restarts and RNG to pray you can do 1.5-3M damage. Death storm makes P3 better for those with fully ready NS teams. But still a chore. I'm really hoping that they can find a solution (such as any of the dozen good solutions on the forums) that allows the zFinn team to still be viable and drop decent damage (without all the RNG **** of chex mix) while closing the endless loop.

I think if they could find a balance that let a well geared optimal zFinn team do 6-10M damage in P3, instead of the current 37M damage. New legendaries have historically always set a new bar for raids, from CLS in all the old raids, to JTR P2 HAAT, or BB8 drastically increasing damage. Revan drops 8M+ in P2. So I think a P3 team dropping 15-20% is right on par with other teams.
