    Pretty bad ass, some of the fight mechanics look cool.

    Oh damn, after watching this I think I want to raid in Rift now. LOL Malforge and Laethas look awesome.

    Rift is definitely pushing forward and improving greatly on the solid base it built for itself at launch - I wouldn't be too surprised to see it gain some more subs with this release.

    This makes me want to play Rift so hard.

    I'm almost prepared to overlook the fact that there are only seven bosses in there (not including mini bosses), because they look so incredibly well scripted.

    Looks outstanding! Such a worthwhile game.

    I really want to see the Laethys fight. For some strange reason, she is my favorite dragon in the Rift universe. Of course, haven't seen Crucia yet. Laethys is the most dragon looking dragon of them all, imo, and the mechanics of that fight seem to be interesting. Can't wait to see it. Although I know I will not be able to raid ID, and will have to wait for the video of the Laethys fight to appear. Getting 2 fps in the water daily raid rift in IPP confirmed that I won't be able to raid in Rift until I get something better.

    Looks to be another excellent content patch from Trion.

    Hopefully the looking for guild feature will get me into a guild that's actually raiding at a time I can consistently show up to, might have to server transfer though since I don't think my server has any : / Because these bosses look pretty damn cool.

    I've got money says the hardcore guilds have it cleared within four weeks. As much as Hammerknell was a tough raid, half the reason it took a couple months to clear was that Akylios was technically unkillable (due to bugs and impossible DPS requirements) for the first few weeks.

    However, I am looking forward to a good challenge, and an amazing raid

    Challenge accepted.

    Just wish it showed a little more of the fight mechanics so I could wildly speculate a bit more.

    It can take a little effort, but checking each realm forum can save you some hassle. Both factions have recruitment subforums on each server's forum. Most guilds do a good job advertising what they want, raid times, and all that jazz. Most guilds seem to be in a perpetual state of recruitment too. Just don't get too disappointed if you see a lot of "x/y HK" requirements. Just like in life, a lot of folk don't want to handhold or train you, they want you prepped, ready, and already geared. Happens in all the games, and Rift is no exception. Fortunately there are always guilds who aren't so stringent in who they'll accept.

    We will see. Maelforge fights looks way way way more involved then the Akylios fight, so take that as you will.

    Has anyone revealed how much of ID the testers got to see? Could determine quite a bit for a timetable for a full clear.

    lol considering the qq fest caused by Hammerknell having bugs and the drama it caused and how Rift got labeled a bug fest ..umm yeah. I saw guilds in each phase of the Maelforge fight just now, so that is a improvement
