Story Mode should be available for week 1 but also for the entire raid.
Here we are, the topic of Story Mode has come back again.
I know the devs once said they don't want Story Mode to be available week 1 because it would take away the feeling of doing the raid as a community/group for the first week. One week isn't long, but it's long enough for some people to get spoiled on social media or elsewhere.
If Story Mode exists, it should be there week 1, for every boss, not as a partial rollout. Jumping straight to Dimensius with none of the earlier build-up breaks the pacing completely. Same with Ula'tek: skipping bosses like >!Zul'jan and Malacrass, or even Nek'zali from the story campaign!<makes the raid feel disjointed instead of like an actual journey.
The only reason I can see for Story Mode not covering the whole raid is that coding the bots for all 8 bosses is probably a lot of work, but I could be wrong, I'm not a game dev.
