How raids were ruined

[niks1010]

Originally the main draw of Lordaeron was in fact that it would be "the most Blizz-like Private Server in the world" Warmane consistently broadcasted that (deserved at the time) boast regularly in game. Nowhere did it mention puffed up raid mobs or reduced buff stacks on players/party members. I didn't find it bad to level from 60 to 80.

My biggest concern is the lack of Random Dungeon Finder which adding insult to injury they broadcast it as a boast when clearly it should be a voluntary choice if only for the achieves. It also badly affects rep gathering and other grinding, long a part of the game.

I am very pleased with the overall quest content. Yeah some are bugged but there is so much newly scripted and properly working quests that stayed broken for years on Molten, how could anyone complain?

I'll keep working 6 toons and hope that 3.3.5 content is released soon. If I understand right, we are on 3.3.3. It is odd that quests are offered for Frozen Halls dungeons when they don't yet exist. Hopefully adding POS, FOS, and HOR will improve the gear and raiding situation to where anyone remotely serious will stay happy and keep playing. I'm willing to wait and see, though it looks really bad for RDF and I don't understand the "logic" behind disabling it, let alone bragging about it and insulting our intelligence. Since it was always an option representing no loss to anyone, is it just pressure to donate? I don't need that pressure since after 5 years, most on x1, donation at least for some items is just wise and more than acceptable.

Server-side we are on 3.1. With 3.2 ToC comes.

I for one have nothing against buffing of raid bosses, without these buffs, most fights would be way too easy or downright jokes. (with 3.3.5 ability and stat scaling + people had 5 years to theorycraft best rotation gemming etc for each class) even after all the buffs people are still killing the bosses weekly and progressing in hard modes. in my opinion raids were never supposed to be able to be cleared with pugs, its just easier if you accept the buffs.

At first I myself was against these Buffs (speaking of Naxxramas). But the more I played, the more I realised that it was the right Choice. I dont know if you were around, when Ulduar was on the PTR, but on there Bosshealth was unchanged to how it was on Retail (at least in the beginning - dont know about later into PTR Testing). And the bosses were melting like Butter there. It was no Challange at all - im mean, really none! Now it is in a pretty good State (Sure, some Bosses maybe need some more tweeking). I expect, once the top Guilds will clear everything on farm, the Nervs will hit the Server so the "casuals" (not intended as an Insult) can experience the Content as well (But i think HM should always stay a Challange and should not be nerved down to complete Faceroll). We had the same "Drama" with Naxx and in the End even PuGs could clear most (if not all) of the Content. You just have to be patient.
