Twin valkyrs suffer from the same problem Jaraxxus has in that their abilities deal damage in such tiny quantities that its impossible to die to them unless you monumentally screw up. At this point Im losing hope that heroic mode is going to be anything other than normal mode with all the numbers tripled/faster cast on abilities.

There is a guild on my server that has killed the first 4 bosses of toc, but can't get past auriaya in uld. The tuning is horrible. Either this stuff is way too easy, or uld normal mode is way too hard. take your pick but one has to be true.

I suspect it's both. I think Blizzard probably wanted Ulduar a bit easier, and the Trial swung too much the other way in compensation. Given what I see, the order is wrong as well: the progression should be "show your prowess", then "defeat opposition", then, just as you're going to be crowned "big cheese", pop, here comes the Lich King to disrupt the whole victory mood.

The magic is still no longer there, as Blizzard cockblocks with only one new boss per week and each turns out to be a loot pinata for any half wits who aren't colorblind and can click a portal.

Maybe the Twins 25man is a "gear check" in order to break the Dark Pact shields, but with Conquest loot and ToC5/10 drops no one needs to step foot in Naxx or Uld to reach that level. Plus they can just keep trying until they get lucky with 5 Vortexes in a row.

I'm curious if the valks hard mode strat will require you to pop tons of orbs on purpose to buff dps (and have to heal through that) or if its going to be as retarded as having ranged change color and blow the one across the room up. The shield goes from 700k to 1.2mil in those same 15 seconds.

Uld was too hard. These aren't meant to cockblock guilds. And yes, most hardmodes are just going to be ridiculously jacked up numbers with maybe a gimmick or two thrown in on top.

Welcome to video games.

Mildly late to the discussion, but yeah the new gear is fucking insane. 30 minutes with 5 people, and I got this shit:

Sinner's Confession - Item - World of Warcraft
Embrace of Madness - Item - World of Warcraft

And they weren't even a good group.

Pretending that WoW's anything other than what it is just sets one up for dissapointment.

If you're still having fun with wow, good to hear. If you feel wow's too easy, molycodeling, whatever; you're best off getting out. Assuming you are willing to try out some of the "failures" that are available atm, there are plenty of other games to kill time with.

Sarcasm aside - this board has just become filled with giant fucking vaginas.

You really should get off this board if you're going to cry about content being too easy when you do not do hardmodes. Every last one of you that does that shit is a giant blubbering pussy who doesn't actually play the raid game. You are a disgrace and a disservice to the board and you belong whining over on the official WoW forums, not here.

"Easy" arguments aside, a lot of people still feel that when they've killed a boss then that's it, they should not be forced to kill him while standing on their head to be able to argument about it's difficulty. Many raiders were quite elitist in the past and if these people hate something then that is when the masses invade their last bastion. No matter what mode you do, you look the same, you use the same skills, you do the same dailies, you run the same heroics. Your social skills are no longer relevant to your success in the game. You log in, you do the stuff that you want to, you log out.

Wow, that was quite the segue. You somehow linked idiots complaining about EASY MODE bosses being easy to no longer being able to suck off the raid leader to get a raid spot.

Personally I wrote an angry letter to Blizzard asking them how dare they put a difficulty slider in their games. Easy mode was too easy and I'm not going to be bothered taking my time and getting better at the game so I can beat hard mode.

I demand that they rebalance normal mode to be exactly at my level of play and get rid of all other difficulties. But it better not be too hard or I'll complain about how the game caters to poopsocking fatasses and I don't have the time to devote to getting better at a VIDEO GAME LOL!!!. And it better not be even slightly easier otherwise you better believe I"m going to whine about how it caters to casual newbies and if they want to beat the game they should spend the time to get better.
