People in this game have some stupid obsession about mass pulls. Not just in TW. It doesn't save anyone's time unless you can mass grip everything and mass stun. Otherwise, forget it especially in dungeons with caster trash.
Or when trash permastuns the tank and charges around (mana tombs...) if you pull 1 by 1 packs usually no one dies (i.e. it's easy after all) but it's still annoying.
Especially since people aren't using their class tools, nowadays if a shaman uses tremor or priest uses fear ward it's like woot woot someone actually used it? In wotlk timewalks (and other probably too) there are mobs enraging and hunter / boomkin / rogue dispel can save a lot of dmg on the tank, but do they even use it? Nope it's all about pew pew.
I'm running on my warrior with sub par glyphs like gag order and dispel on shield slam just because others can't use their purges or interrupts even though it costs them nothing except a global. Definitely not a glyph slot. Or things like glyph of icy touch on a dk... you lose half a death strike for it.
Most wipes in timewalks are because people rush. For example Jaina in end time, safer to clear trash around because she teleports and will probably asspull something. Nope, always some stealthers run off to pick crystals to skip trash and then you wipe because either I pull trash and no one helps me kill it, or I don't pull trash and Jaina will pull it during encounter. Doesn't help no one stomps the flarecores either.
People always, always want to skip trash. Reminds me of that one ZA pug by the end of TBC when group decided to skip patrols before Lynx boss. Every time we wiped (and we wiped a lot, cuz pug) someone pulled that patrol during corpse run and we wasted infinitely longer time than if we just killed trash like normal people. So this stupid mentality exists since at least TBC.
Without it, dungeons would rarely have problems unless you severely undergear it. And in timewalk your gear is normalized, so it's not the case.
