I would like to get back into WoW but i do not want to get information overload especially once i hit the pandaria land. between 2 and 3 there should also be ratedBG, which is like BG and arena combined. You have to have a full group and you get rated. 6. what do you mean by VC? 7. Flex raids allows you to raid with anyone and between 10 and 25 people. the difficulty is tied to how many people you have in the group. 9. heroics are super easy these days. so they implemented Challange modes, which are basically the 5man dungeons that you play for timed runs. They are difficult because your gear gets scaled down to the same level, no matter how good it is. Also every boss is harder, more hp etc etc. You get absolutely no loot though. But there are leaderboards online. 10. Yeah, basically you get waves of mobs and you play either as healer tank or dd and it gets tricky at later waves. On top of that there is also the BrawlGar arena, where you solo pve against encounters with abilities etc.Example, and my favortie one: 11. pokemon! err, pet battles yeah. gotta catch em all. | ||

Against any double hybrid team I almost go out of mana trying to keep myself and my partner up sometimes. (I'm a healer). Also, I love comps like shadow priest/druid, where the goal is to bring us to 30-40% and then kite us for 15 minutes afterwards. 2v2 is broken entirely - especially past 2k+ ratings. On the plus side, I think 3v3 is much more balanced... | ||

I would like to get back into WoW but i do not want to get information overload especially once i hit the pandaria land. Pretty much all the things you wrote are what you can do. It is more easier to play with less hours put into the game however, if you still want to be the best in PvE side of the game you have to put in the hours. PvP however is so easy to get the gear now it is pretty much social xD Timeless isle is the place where you want to go when you hit level 90, there is quests to do a little chain of them, and then dailies (2 everyday). World bosses on the island and elites. It makes farming decent gear really easy and much better than dailies. Flex raid is a new system they bought out which is harder than LFR level of PvE content but is still slightly easier than Normal mode. It is based for social PvErs who don't have the schedule to commit to a raid guild but want to raid. You can get people from 10 to 25 (anywhere in between) and go and kill the bosses in a more challenging adventure than silly LFR. It's good for those who have raided in the past but cannot anymore. Proving Grounds is PvE vs everything, you get wave and waves of mobs and have to kill them. Then you have one where you have to survive long as possible etc. | ||

And the next content is probably half a year away, damn its gonna be boring.Let's be fair about this, 5.4 had an incredibly long PTR testing cycle where Method and every other top guild was working on the encounters both on Normal and Heroic. To simply say that they came out and steamrolled the content blind is totally false when you take into consideration their months of progress on the PTR. The fact that Garrosh stood tall for as long as he did on Heroic is a pretty good testament to how hard this tier actually is once you look at it that way. My guild is 6/14 on Normal right now (we aren't cutting edge but we've managed to clear all of the raid tiers in each of the previous expansions while they were relevant without nerfs) and I have to say that so far SoO is a blast with a lot of nice difficulty added in. Some fights like Iron Juggernaut seem simple and rather easy, others like Dark Shaman are crazy and much more difficult. I'm having a ton of fun with the content so far. | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/z8ujZeT.jpg) As you can see from the above image, the % of guilds that have done heoric mode bosses ARE VERY small. So i guess your point is a valid one. 3 raid lock outs after SoO has been released only 12% of the guilds have killed Garrosh. Under 50% of the guilds in the game have yet to get passed the Dark Shaman fight which is 7/14 (halfway). So the regular guilds who dont spam PTR for tips and whipes before they play are getting tested a lot. And the 12% that killed Garrosh on normal, 4% of those guilds have yet to even become 1/14hc! Which again could be a test. I wish i was PvE farming again but i struggle with time commitments which is sad as this is been good fun | ||

I want to start conquest capping after getting the 4-piece set bonus and double shankers, but doing kittens for damage to plate users is kinda depressing. Also, my personal rating is 96 if that helps! | ||

A major portion of it is how it's tanked. The tanks need to do a really elaborate dance of taunt offs while also positioning the various abilities the bosses do so they don't overwhelm the raid. Here's a video guide for it. I mean sure to the BC raider that isn't playing anymore it's easy to look at how fast the content is being cleared by the top guilds compared to say Sunwell and then criticize the raids as being simple or watered down now, but I challenge anyone to look at a fight like Dark Shaman and then say that. EDIT: I just noticed in that video that their DPS were averaging about 100k more damage per person than my guild. Just goes to show how much having full Heroic gear from the previous raid tier helps in the normal mode versions of the next, also they have what I would consider to be an optimal raid comp for that fight, 2 Elemental Shaman 1 Rogue, DK/Paladin tank combo etc. Not every guild and mine certainly doesn't, tailors their raid comp around each encounter so for us we have to deal with the same boss with a raid comp not nearly as suited for it. | ||
