MMO-Champion
Ever since Cataclysm I lost all interest in dungeons... I no longer had the patience for them and grew bored of the trash grind. However I love scenarios, they're short, fun, easy and offer a chance of loot.

Is it wrong that I love scenarios?

Of course it's not wrong, it's your opinion about what you do and don't find fun.
Just because they're not something I enjoy doesn't mean you're wrong for liking them.

I don't dislike them, and I think I got better items from there than I did from Heroic Dungones.
BUT MoP dungeons are very short and don't really take that long, and from the start most of them were incredibly easy compared to say Cata.

I like them as well. They arent something that I do extremely often, however I like them because for me they provide a bit of downtime in the game. I can let my hair down and just have some fun slapping things in the face and not worry about group comp/raid strats. It's really just getting back to some simple, easy fun

Not wrong, but i personally don't see how scenarios are different than instance trash. For me, scenarios are full of mind-numbing trash mobs with 0,000000000001% chance of loot (for wrong spec of course).
But as said before, this is just matter of opinion.Former unique snowflake.

I would prefer it if scenarios were made for some serious solo challenge. I mean, they do not even pose a threat even to someone who has just reach level 90. In my opinion, scenarios shouldn't be based on tank and spank fights, but on riddles and/or mini games. Also "boss" fights should have been more like the rare encounters in the world, where you could be two-shotted if you weren't careful. Now it's very easy, almost boring. But it's ok if you like it. By the way, I did the Scenaterdist last weekend

Agreed. Scenarios and Heroics offer very similar experiences. Heroics take only marginally more time. Originally Posted by PowerGamez

Since I stopped holding them to the, probably absurd, standard that I imagined they would be held to - I have enjoyed them more.

I wouldn't go as far as to call them fun, but at least they're not as boring as normal (or "heroic" as they call them ingame) dungeons.
Too bad the reward sucks and they're not really worth doing.

If you queue for random scenarios you get a bag at the end of the run with a 450 blue (i think) Originally Posted by rt7

Nope it's a 463 just like from a heroic. Originally Posted by otro

What most people don't realize is that you can queue for: Originally Posted by adam86shadow

What's better for valor income? Waiting around in org for your dungeon to pop, or running a fast scenario (~10mins) for 20/40 vp while waiting on a dungeon/raid queue to pop.
The loot/gold is just gravy to me. I run them to kill time between dungeons and to cap VP at a superior rate (since it's usually a 30-60sec queue to get into a scenario)
And generally, as soon is I get the "scenario complete" toast, I also get a "Your Dungeon Queue Is Ready!" to boot.
