This reminds me of all the ppl commenting on nightbane after they lolstomped it in SSC-Hyjal-BT gear
“I cant believe how you guys complained so hard for so long when wen just went there and stomped it with raid half full of new ppl who had never been there”
“I cant believe you wiped on this boss for weeks, its soooo easy”
Its called progression raiding
When your whole group is undergeared
And no one knows the fights
And the boss hits twice as hard
And half the mechanics are broken/buggy (and instagib you/raid or evade bug the boss)
Then it gets nerfed (he hits softer)
And nerfed again (he has less health)
And probably nerfed again (his mechanics are far easier now)
THEN NERFED INTO THE GROUND (lol, doubled all the previous nerfs)
And ppl get next patch gear, so overgear it and know the fight
There is an ENORMOUS amount of difference between pre-nerf progression, and overgear lolstomping
People behind the curve will never know the difference
lemme translate to LK terms for you.....
how many guilds downed heroic LK25 prenerf?
how many guilds downed heroic LK25 postnerfs and +30% lolbuff?
theres ur answer
Healing a heroic with an epic geared tank and DPS pulling 15k each isn't going to be hard as long as they're half decent players who aren't prone to suicide.
Heroics are hard .. 'til you (and/or your party) out-gear them. Seems to be pretty much working as intended.
I hope we'll see a similar progression with the new 4.1 heroics .. I want to see 346 geared heroic-savvy groups wiping like newbies again.
