It goes without saying that the expansion was tuned around aria, every single beta guild that beta tests veil alaris tested raids WITH aria in its old form. So yes even if the gods of sony themselves claim the expansion was not tuned around aria that's not exactly true. Aria is a component of the guild wide 'machine' that led to veil of alaris being tuned in the form tha it is. Not that it matters, Alaris is no underfoot so it's not AS big of a deal.
That's not entirely accurate. We asked the majority of our beta guilds to specifically NOT use Aria during raid testing because of the problems we had with it. If you did anyway, than I'm not sure what to tell you.
I will tell you we had no intention of tuning content around some of the absolute over-inflated DPS numbers some classes were able to achieve because of the Aria issue.
