Drop weight down when going to failure on every set?

Let's say I do 100kg x8(failed last rep)
I only get 100kg x5 on the 2nd set then 100kg x3 on the 3rd and final set. My rep range is 6-8 reps. Should I do 100kg x8, 90kg x8, 80kg x8 by dropping the weight lower I achieve the desired rep range but what is more beneficial for muscle gain?

Is this the way you go to failure on every set of an exercise?

Many thanks if you can help me!:)
 
What i do is do ur targeted weight ie 100x3 then do as many 90 as possible right after with no rest

I get my best results from high tension sets with little rest between. I think in terms of physiological effect of exercise rather than creating a desired rep range. I tend to use a lot of different rep speeds and ranges, static holds, and eccentric only motions in the same set to create tension in a variety of locations in that specific muscle I train. I'm a bodybuilder, not a powerlifter, so aiming for numbers isn't really a concern for me.
