Right will check up on world 1st tomorrow, sleep time
www.wowprogress.com for updates if no one knows!


And then a Chinese guild called Stars actually went and did it.

It kind of sucks how LFR makes the crafted gear worthless unless you're willing to blow 30k on bloods for the upgrades, and even then it's nowhere near worth it. Professions are by far the weakest part of WoD so far, and the crafted gear could really use a boost imo.

Also, PvP gear being 660 means I'm actually better off doing ashran and 2v2 a few times a week than raiding normal modes.

WoD is a great expansion, but the gearing process could use some work.

PvP gear is only 660 if your doing pvp. its bad 600 gear at every other point.

No? http://www.wowhead.com/item=115674 for example is better than heroic warforged 636 gear.

Also, thanks for linking that video, brought back some nostalgia.

It got me thinking though, given the choice between a set Normal > Heroic > Mythic progression route that we have now.. how many would prefer to go back to the Ulduar model of self enforced hardmodes?

It's just a way to progress twice on the same content, since Heroic is tuned a huge 25 item levels higher than Normal

Yeah but the mechanics are the same and frankly, Normal in 630 gear and heroic in 645 are basically the same in difficutly

The new raid tiers are very clever.

Mythic feels like MoP Heroic, and Heroic feels like MoP Normal...

But then Normal feels slightly harder than MoP LFR, but a lot easier than MoP Flex. Then current LFR feels easier than pet battles.

Like, if old LFR require 1 out of 10 in skill... this new LFR is negative three. So now even the mouth breathing retards that couldn't clear LFR last expansion can do it!

I don't think it's possible to wipe in there, as I cleared it earlier with a Bear, DK tank, and one single Holy Paladin; all the other healers were in DPS specs and I don't think anyone in the raid ever dropped under 70%.

Yeah i dont get why they kept the new difficulty. It made sense in MoP because flex was the only one that was well..flexible, but now you also have heroic being flexible. They really couldve just kept LFR -> Normal -> Heroic and made normal flexible. Oh well, more epix i guess.

The difficulties all make sense to me. I think the purpose of Normal is being the first step for lesser skilled players. LFR is complete tourist mode now -- doesn't count. If there was no Normal, the game would be way too hard for some of the lower skilled raiders. Heroic is the first step for the above-average players and Mythic is hard mode.

If I were to complain about something it'd be the loot system. Guilds with a billion alts doing 6 heroic runs in a week so that they're already avg ilvl 668 stepping into Mythic for the first time... well, that combined with the excessive amount of BoE gear. I guess it gives the ultra hardcore people something to do to have an edge but it just seems a bit too extreme.

Its sad because this is the same thing they noticed back in WotLK. Guilds were running normal + heroic because they could and the possibility alone makes it a must for any hardcore raider. So back then they decided to make it a single lockout to prevent this.
Except they forgot all about it, its something they do more often I've noticed.

And yes I don't think normal+heroic is redundant. Its easy to forget how bad the average player if when your limited to a bubble of your own guild who are all pretty good players.
The average person is terrible at this game, and they need something as easy as current Normal to be able to raid.
Now you can say they don't serve it but that attitude doesn't fly anymore. Blizzard doesn't want to make a time investing thing like a raid for 0.01% of the player base.

We are doing Mythic if anyone wants to watch http://www.twitch.tv/nihilismtv

edit: ez https://www.warcraftlogs.com/rankings/6#boss=1721

edit: we give up on twin ogron. our dps is very borderline on meeting enrage even with perfect execution so we go heroic farm

I think most of you don't realize how few people so far even cleaned more than Kargath and Butcher on normal mode.
