Well it's been up on US servers for less than a day and currently 10 out of 14 bosses are down.
In fact the first 2 died so quickly to so many guilds that there is currently no clear picture over who killed them first.

This saddens me, a metric fsckton.

Although as someone in my guild pointed out to me, progression is not about normal mode kills anymore, it's about doing the bosses on Hard mode so there's still hope for the content I suppose.
 
Yea I am also having a hard time embracing all the changes the game moved to. I cant see myself doing 10 man runs... then 25 man runs... then 25 man hard mode runs on the same instance.

Why bother ??? Just start off on 25 man hard mode runs. I know my guild is doing our first 25 man Ulduar run tonight, and I did'nt get a raid spot. Might be a blessing in disguise... will just wait till we end up doing Ulduar in 25 hard mode before I focus on 100% raid commitment.

On a good note, been reading very positive hunter changes... Got my build / glyphs / pet choices all worked out. Just a complete different mindset to get use to... no more shot rotations, its all about shot priorities. The talent trees are a complete pain in the bunghole to work out.

I'm all kitted and ready for tonight too.
I sat till 3am this morning reading up on the DK changes and discussion around tanking specs before I sat down had a think and made up my mind what to spec.
Glyphs are in the bag waiting.

It looks like more and more DPS classes are going the way of the Priority System for abilities which I actually like.
It's the thing that appealed to me most when I was still doing ZA Bear runs on my SP.
 
eish 10 of 14, I assume the 4 remaining were ones not released to the PTR. So all the top guilds will be on farm status next week. Not sure how long it takes for them to get BiS from all the loot and their black proto drakes, at this rate dare I say end of next month.

So whats in 3.2 :)
 
Blizzard gives us new content and tons of changes, yet people would rather complain and look for issues....sad.
 
Why be bothered about what other people are doing ?

Enjoy the game with your friends and dont take it so seriously :)

Click to expand...

Different people enjoy things differently.

Ideally what would happen is that each and every boss in Ulduar would have a really hard mode, which dropped the phattest loot.

Unfortunately from what I understand of it, there's only going to be one hard mode boss in the dungeon (Algalon), and most of the best gear in the game will still drop from ez25manmode.

Accessible content - fine. But stop handing out free epixx ffs.

*edit* I lie, apparently 11 of the 14 bosses have hard-modes attached, presumably with their own loot tables.
So that's actually pretty awesome.

Just remember the Guilds who've downed those 10/14 bosses have been practising on them for the last 2 months on the PTR's..

Not saying the encounters won't turn out easy anyway, just that it's not a realistic benchmark yet.

See for yourself before qq.
 
Lol u guys complain my account got hacked on Monday tragic before Ulduar still waiting on Blizzard to get me my account back they are really taking their time though so my guild is doing a Ulduar run 10 man tommorow and the way it looks I am going to miss that ;-(
 
The fact is that most serious raiding guilds have their raiders log to PTR and do the raids there to learn them. By the time that the patch is released they allready have the tactics learned. The fact that so many guilds have cleared it means nothing at the end of the day.
 
I'm sure we will get some feedback from the guys entering Ulduar tonight. I am waiting for that info before making a call.
 
Ok Friends of mine from Germany went. They killed 8/14 without a problem up until now and they did not go on the PTR. So I think it it just silly what Blizz did I'm guessing a month and it will be clear.
 
lol blizzard is just keeping on spreading their existing butter over the same old bread, but do not fear before the implosion which is well under way they will have new mmo out to recapitalize :)
 
Well we got no where last night the realm was so laggy and stuffed and the raid instance wouldn't hold together for more that 10 mins before you were either stuck in cyber space or dead in Dal.

Plus every time I switched on the duel talent option my talents reset so I had about 10 free respecs last night till it got rather tiresome.

Hopefully better tonight.
 
We took a poke last night and got Flame Leviathan down really easily.
Ignis is a problem but they've hotfixed his bug so that should ease things a bit.
Razorscale is really cool so far and we made some good progress on her.
XT looks pretty easy so we'll take him first tonight before carrying on with Razorscale.
 
Took down the Flame Leviathon in 10 man last night, it was pretty easy AFTER we tried it on hard mode. On hard mode, geez, it was insane. Couldn't get further though as the instance server bombed out :<
 
downed flame leviathon on hard more. Wiped about 30 times on ignis, coz of the bug lol.
