I think empires will be better than dark sea update, you’re essentially comparing the DS feature, the brig, and new spells and scrolls vs clan building, a bunch of new islands, 4 minibosses, a raid mechanic, new spells, diving points and magic reset feature
Tbh I don’t really feel like Mistral deserves a spot that high
slight level cap increase, new island and story part, vit imbue & weapons rework vs the diving spot feature
Then raise deckhand update too
Deckhand overhaul
Tons of new dark sea structures
New dark sea biomes
New sunken set
deckhand rework + making the DS slightly less boring doesnt match everything mistral adds, and sunken set is superfluous, every almost every update adds lots of items these days
in fact, without the deckhand stuff this would be the only D tier update
yeah but the small update only took like a week to make, unlike the rest which took multiple months
im not considering time, only content and quality
true if we considered time nimbus part 1 should be D tier
1 new island with basically no features, cannot be claimed, has absolutely no shops, 4 levels and pretty much 4 quests, 2 of which are sailing back and forth from Sameria, one of which is a badly optimized yap session, imbuement with only a size-increasing effect, a single spirit weapon with a single rite and 8 stat points.

“dark sea” “mistral” “brewing”
the “small” update

Some dumbass who doesn’t know how much time it usually takes vetex to release that amount of content

what would an update have to be like to be s tier for you
something like the nimbus sea had potential to be S tier
like new story content and an entirely new sea sign me up 
but the long wait for a cheesy ass boss and 80% of the story being dialogue got it knocked all the way down
it would’ve been C tier since it had more content than something like the potions and diving update but the weapon wipe bug just completely destroyed any semblance of enjoyment from the update
in fact simply because of the weapons wipe bug and the ensuing buggy balance shitfest that followed i’d have put it in F tier if there was such a thing
anyway, for an update to be S tier for me, it would have to add a lot of endgame content that changes the way the game is played (i.e. replayability, much higher level cap a ton of new spells maybe the addition of arcanium weapons or heck even obtainable lost magics)
so full release has potential to be s tier (ignoring the wait time)
yup, ignoring the wait time
