    [Re-hash] Karazhan

    Would you be mad if they revamped it SLIGHTLY and put it back as a level 90 dungeon? By this I'm saying that we should keep all the same bosses, same emplacement, maybe some updated graphics, a couple of new mechanics (but the SAME fights), and a new end boss; a bit how they remake old content.

    Personally, I vote yes. Consider the factors above. ALL the SAME, but with a new end boss & some updated graphics.

    Yes/No?

    EDIT: FAIL grammar on poll. Can't edit it. Damnit.

    EDIT2: I believe it should be redone ONLY if done well, kind of a Zul'Gurub treatement. The only problem with ZG is that we were forced to do it so often that we got sick of it. Fun factor? I believe it could be there.

    If it had a new story (then again, the old one didn't have much of one) and it made sense to do it, then yeah. Obviously new bosses and updated graphics as well.

    If they ever brought that raid back I'd stop playing all together I'm tired of all the recycled content.

    Nope. I experienced it at 70, enjoyed it for its time, but I would never be interested in doing this raid again at any new level cap unless it received a major reduction in trash. Even then I think it would be quite unfortunate if it was redone because it just isn't new content. "The Menagerie was merely a setback!" :O

    Karazhan was an amazing dungeon. One of the best in the game. Sure, after doing it multiple times a week throughout the entire Burning Crusade expansion, it was getting burnt out, but still an amazing dungeon non the less. On that note, I do not want them to bring it back as a 5 man dungeon, I feel they would ruin it the way they ruined Zul'Gurub. It would just be way too long in it's current form to be a 5 man dungeon, for Blizz to make it one. Personally I don't have a problem with that (BRD is my favorite instance in the game).

    So, sure I would love them to do, if they did it properly. But I do not want them to, since I feel they would ruin it, and remove it's current form from the game.

    It'd be nice, but I too would hate to see more recycled raid content. 5mans are pushing it, re-doing raids I did 3 years ago isn't fun.

    You messed up your poll and post

    The poll says "Re-do Karazhan; yes/no?"
    Then you ask in your post "Would you be mad if they revamped it SLIGHTLY and put it back as a level 90 dungeon?"

    Anyways, Yes i'm down for it, no i would not be mad, this would be an amazing idea, and look forward to it.

    Honestly, I think the slightly rehashed dungeons (ZA) were the worst ones whereas the redesigned ones (Deadmines, SFK, ZG) were absolutely amazing.

    I vote yes but only if it is a remake, not a rehash like previous mentioned dungeons.

    Only if they did it like they did Zul'Gurub. The number of bosses in there is a bit much for a 5 man, but I love the layout and the feel of the instance. Maybe cut off the Attumen portion and shrink the library a bit... drop it to 7-8 bosses, and thin out the trash. As long as they were new bosses. I loved the old fights, but god they'd be boring anymore.

    ^What those two said. ZG/DM/SFK remakes were epic. ZA was a horrible copypasta. Re-do Kara like ZG/DM/SFK and it'll be great.

    No thanks. I raided in there on 3 toons during BC. I have zero interest in going back. It was good at the time but to many people saw it and are sick of it. I for one would quit playing wow if they brought it back and made it a necessary part of progression.

    What doesn't make people quit nowadays? Who cares if it's a "rehash"? Content is content, as far as I'm concerned, especially when we're talking about stuff that was implemented years back.



    Kara was quite fun and enjoyable, I'm all for it if they do it well.

    If they added it on as raid-finder only, and therefore completely optional, sure. I just don't want to be forced through it to get more gear, because then it brings back the bad memories from Kara, that being how many damned times I ran it >:|

    people forget HOW MUCH trash kara had.

    I'm not sure re-hashed is the right word for what I would want, but revamped for sure.

    They did such an awesome job with ZG, DM and SFK (but especially ZG!), I'd love to see more old content updated.

    I don't mind rehashed stuff in principle. What annoys me is that Blizzard has put a lot of time and effort into World of Warcraft, yet only the newest 5% is relevant at a time. That's the terrible part. Of course, simply re-leveling something only for it to go obsolete again in another expansion is sort of a waste of effort, but I appreciate the attempt.

    As for Karazhan in particular? Honestly, I enjoy being able to take it easy nowadays, but I'd love to see something new done with the dungeon. Whether it's a separate instance or a replacement of the original, however, I just hope they give it a story. Karazhan is one of the most atmospheric locations in the entire game, and even has a novel providing details on it, but the actual dungeon is just... chaotic and disconnected. If they're not going to tie it together more, at least explain the backstory of each section.

    im stoked to see scholo and SM being brought back and Kara is another one of those epic places i would not mind seeing again

    i never got the opportunity to do kara while i was relevant as i started a few months into wrath. ive done it twice now, once at 80 on my mage (carried by a DK that had played since vanilla) and once at 85 on my rogue (soloed for transmog, got both daggers why bother going back lol) and it was BOTH TIMES one of the coolest instances id been in. im a big fan of little red riding hood and i wish i couldve seen that in a 25 man setting.

    so id like them to do kara2, like ulduar, something THAT spectacular. im sorry, but cataclysm didnt have ANY spectacular instance. vanilla had 3 with rich history and background and tons of bosses and sweet graphics (dont lie, in the day that was sweet). BC had two, kara and sunwell. wrath had one and a half, ulduar =1, ICC = 1/2 (im sorry, but personally it did not instill the sense of mystery or any thrill in exploring or ANYTHING like ulduar, kara, sunwell, mc, aq40/20, and bwl, and so it gets 1/2. cata... um... im not seeing it. now this is completely opinion based, and i know that, but.... WHERES THE SWEET RAIDS DEVS?

    so basically id just like another spectacular raid and not trash content with higher numbers. "QQ we have 5 difficulty setting to tune for (freelewt, 10m, h10m, 25m, h25m) so we cant make as much COOL content". well i qq that youre unwilling to hire the people that would make this game sweet again. seriously? get like 40 more devs? ive seen your profit margins, i know you can afford it. the community is rubbing off on blizzard with all the QQ excuses and crap. man i totally digressed there.


    (note, zon'azz, yor'sahj, and spine were all sick, but 3/8 does not constitute a spectacular raid)
