[WoW]Wotlk:Raid instances to have 10 and 25 man versions, Death Knight starts at 55 - Page 24

I wish I had done more in BFD. I soured on it because I tried to run in as a corpse and couldn't get below the water level. Then my friend was like, "Just aim down." I was a fucking moron.

Oh man, lollin pretty hard right now. Don't mean to be one of those EQ WAS BEST EVAR fags but I can't help but laugh at the fact that people think running for a few minutes was a brutal death penalty. Kind of amazing that I thought losing a hour+ of xp and a hour run back to corpse in eq was fine but I used to curse blizzards name everytime I died in DM.

No shit, I feel so spoiled but goddamn if that run from Burning Steppes to Molten Core didn't make me hate freedom.

Kobalt · 05-13-2008, 02:18 PM

Running back to raid zones? Pfft I was too lazy, get to work you fucking shaman.

You know what was fun! back when we had to clear through BRD to get into MC-.-;

I remember people dying in the caves in Silithus and them being brought back at the graveyard in the Barrens. Good times.

Heh, had that shit happen to a friend. Ended up logging on my Paladin alt who was in like... Stormwind or something, and running over to res her.

Kobalt · 05-13-2008, 02:30 PM

Ugh you just reminded me of the long ass run back to c'thun's room.

But at least I had a cool red bug mount so I didn't mind it too much. Besides At least once a night someone would end up aggroing ouro.

Cybsled · 05-13-2008, 03:35 PM

The run back to C'Thuns room if Ouro wasn't dead was fucking brutal. Fuck I hated that shit when we were learning him.

FoghornDeadhorn · 05-13-2008, 05:18 PM

BFD is probably the lowest useage:quality ratio dungeon in the game, it's really sad. Now there's a dungeon that's about 80% linear and still manages to give you a sense of freedom and exploration while you're doing it for the first time.

Cybsled · 05-13-2008, 06:47 PM

Ya, BFD and ST are probably the only dungeons that I've never run in full before.

Zehn - Vhex · 05-13-2008, 06:51 PM

ST was the zone to do when the level cap was 49. Eranikus and MIppo getting combat drinking nerfed. 8(

Draegan · 05-13-2008, 07:35 PM

ST was fun. The lower level sucked.

Plorkyeran · 05-13-2008, 08:06 PM

The only time I've ever managed to get a group to zone into BFD was a 20-man raid with no one over level 20 back in beta. I wouldn't be surprised if the majority of otherwise experienced and vaguely knowledgeable players have never done the instance at all, much less completed it.

Rezz · 05-13-2008, 08:25 PM

It was fairly popular (for a horde centric dungeon) back at release on Medivh at least, I did the zone a couple times with pugs about 3-4 days after release easily enough.
