The Desert Perpetual.

I have to give you some points here. I do like the raid, i like how everyone is involved, no more just standing around fiddling your thumbs. Similar to the Last wish raid, This is a boss rush raid. Different mechanics, visuals and themes every encounter that keeps it from getting stale. Of course it is not flawless but i only have 3 things that i don't like. (1). The difficulty for each encounter including the final boss, is not equal. In one encounter you can survive no problem, but then another can make it nearly impossible. (2). The in between encounters is really annoying and confusing to traverse. (3). The final boss doesn't feel like the final boss. As this is a boss rush raid, the final boss must stand out with more strict mechanics and of course its design. Like Last wish, you can tell that Riven is the final boss just by its design alone, of course its mechanics is different from the previous bosses. - The boss encounter is so nothing, looking at some mines to see which is the real one and which nodes to collect. The bosses design doesn't stick out. I mean it is just the first boss of both Garden and Spire. Sure there are no eyes, but hey.

For the most left the raid is really good. Final boss is really lax on the timer, which is weird cause the hydra is overly tight with how one mess up wipes you. Feels off having the final boss be more relaxed than some random hydra boss, even if he is the [b]Lord of Quanta[/b].
