I dont really care how fast someone else clears any content. As long as I enjoy it.

Same here but it's like "YAY WE'RE GONNA RAID NEW STUFF-oh nvm it's all dead".
 
I forsee a SWP level of difficulty with this content. Think back to TBC days when it launched. Even the best geared guilds failed at it. Only a limmited few made it all the way through. I can see this patch being the same. I mean what use is it if everyone runs in and kills Arthas (Lich King) in one shot :confused:
 
If that happens I give up the game its 2 easy at the moment. Need to be hard so u take awhile at killing them. Thought the release date is the 16th Dec
 
True Pitbull, but back in TBC we never had raids with normal and heroic. Im sure heroic will be damn hard, as it should be. Normal should be difficult but not impossible if you can clear ToC 25 man normal mode.

I am in a casual guild and we cleared ToC 25man normal for this first time last night.

We have only killed the Northrend Beasts in 10 man heroic. Going back for the 2nd boss tonight. We probably wont clear ToC 25 man heroic for a long while, if at all. Not at lvl 80 anyway. I dont mind that, but we will keep trying. Until the next patch/expansion :D
 
heh BrianStephan Master

Let me ask you, did u clear Ulduar 25 hard modes (ie firefighter, Yogg+0) & Algalon before the nerfs, whats it now? 4-5 months ago?

Maybe now, but it was certainly not just easy then.

Even now, even thou I think TOC25 is crap (not really a raid), Anub'arak 25 (Hard Mode) is NOT easy and even on a good server like ours just a handfull of us actually downed it.

It's retarded to have an attitude like that.

I rather wish for epic fights with an high enjoyment factor and fun. That Gunship looks like it can be fun eh?

Anyway, I hope u all have loads of fun and enjoy ICC. GL :)
 
Not from the start if thats what you asking. RL > wow during Vanilla, raided TBC & Lich

Thats besides the point. I'm not matching up the lich raids vs old world raids in terms of difficulty. You had some epic 40 man raids (hell it was even hard to get 40 decent players 2gether!). Take a stupid example, Naxx in Wotlk was not really much was it (old naxx, now that was different story was it not?)
Things def changed with Ulduar with the introduction of hard modes thou.

You have normal so people can have fun and experience the content. You can't expect to have the masses struggle for 8 months to finish normal ICC. Blizz have to think about all their customers and lets be honest most of the subs comes from the more casual wow'er.

I'm sure the general level of ICC will be a bit harder than what we've had, but to me things look promising again. Seems the fun factor, story etc might come back. Something toc do not have and imo still toc does not fit in wow.

As I said thou, I hope u all have loads of fun.
 
I have heard that similar to the current heroics there will be a set number of tries per boss. Some low number like 5 wipes max...
 
something like 3 bosses with infinite attempts than the 4th "gate boss" has 5 attempts per week. This increases by 5 per week.

So week one, x bosses with infinite attempts and 1 gate boss with 5 attempts.

Week two, x bosses with infinite attempts, 1 gate boss 10 attempts. If the gate boss is killed you gain access to y other bosses and another gate boss with only 5 attempts.

EDIT

There will only be normal mode for the while. Heroic mode will only be available once normal has been cleared thus you won't see heroic till at least the middle/end of January. I also believe that will be under a gated system.
 
To whoever is QQing about the difficulty of ICC: have you even read the strats? The first 2 bosses seem pretty simple but they start ramping up. Who here has done Leotheras before the massive nerfs? That was not simple back in SSC days. We are now seeing a boss with the same (and additional) mechanics.

ToC 10 normal was pretty easy. ToGC was completely different, it was a fun challenge. My small, 10 man guild has cleared through most content (Algalon, Yogg+0 and a Tribute to Insanity left) and I feel the pacing was perfect. We battled in a few places but we saw progress. We accomplished this by raiding 2 nights a week for the past 2 months or so. It does not make good design sense to design encounters that need a guild focusing on something 5 days a week.

I have had more fun in WotLK than I ever had raiding. I raided through all BC content and a little of Vanilla.

Blizzard have stated many times they are not catering for the hard core elite and I believe the game is better off for it. Besides, name any other game that beats WoW's end game content and I will give you a cookie. Stop acting like spoilt children and wait to see the patch.
 
MJ 10 man is fine 25 cool but damn nothing beats a full 40 man raid corps runin the whole night :p I'm all for people getin epics but I'm also all for people to work for them
