    Your favourite Cataclysm 5-man?

    Note: I forgot the revamped DM & SFK Heroics from the list, and they cannot be added to the poll later on. Vouch for them in text mode for the time being!

    ***

    You've been queued for a dungeon in the LFD tool for a good while.

    Finally, the queue pops.

    You click the shiny "Enter dungeon" -button. Doubtless you're wondering which one you'll get.

    Some, you'll love. Something else might pop up that'll make you cringe.

    What is your favourite 5-man dungeon so far? (And why?)

    ***

    For me, it's Throne of the Tides.

    Good (moderate) length, nice changes of pace throughout the instance, plus well-varied and fun boss-fights. I mean, who doesn't love pulling off 100k dps on the last boss, right?

    Now, if only they made that pesky elevator move a little bit faster..

    either grim batol or halls of origination. gb is harder, but halls is epic. quite happy to do full runs there

    least favourite probably new deadmines. van cleef bit is just irritatng. sfk also gets a groan out of me. it's too enclosed and i can't see wtf is going on half the time. my camera is usually panned quite far back but in there i just feel claustrophobic
    somebody call for d doctor?

    LC, easy, fast and fun and not too much trash.

    Lower City due to the sheer quickness and easy of it. Even though HoO can be fun at times...it's just too long imo.

    Hm I got several favourites for different categories:

    Vortex Pinnacle has the best looks, it looks amazing

    Throne of the Tides is very short, its the AN version of WotLK

    Deadmines and Blackrock Caverns are definatly my LEAST favorite, the dungeon looks boring, can be hard at times and there's no music etc.

    Grim Batol has the best music

    Grim Batol, most interesting boss fights. It can be annoyingly long, but I always look forward to the boss fights.
    WTB talented signature creators!

    HoO because it's so short! (HATE TOTT!!!!!!)

    Any dungeon that i can do in the least amount of time. Not sure which one that is, since i haven't been into a 5 man on my main in months.

    I like the bosses in Grim batol, their fun to tank
    Stonecore is meh, when i'm doing slabhide i always wish the group would die so i can solo him, and ozruk provides a fight of intensity, at least for me
    TotT is good, but since people discovered you could just ignore the 3rd boss it got boring, that hall of trash was the hardest part
    Vortex pin is easy, and pretty, but i rate it low on my scale because i seem to get it every other time.
    Lost city is a good one, unique boss fights, and almost all of them require the dps to actually think while they pew pew
    HoO is ok, i liked it a lot better before the whole NUUUU LETS SKIP EVERYTHING

    Vortex Pinnacle, after I found out how to glitch the mobs from 2nd boss onwards

    Lost City or Vortex Pinnacle. Not sure why but both of those dungeons never seem to get old (plus coming out of VP with 5+ volatile air is always nice!)

    Totally depends on my class/spec
    Pala (protMS) SFK(!)
    DK(BloodMS) BRC/Throne/Lost city
    Lock: Grim batol
    Priest(disc): i hate anything that comes with a tank in dps gear or stam stackin tanks
    Overall i think grim batol is best. Not that much trash if you go with a proper group that can bring trash to low HP. Lost city you can skip alot aswell.
    Trash is boring and all bosses are kinda fun.

    Probably Vortex, because it's shiny. Plus, I'm a mount collector so the idea of "maybe this time the mount will drop" is always in the back of my head.

    Stonecore would be high on the list for the same reason, but I can't count the number of times we wiped because no one ganked the Sentries before Ozruk, so bleh to that.

    I really don't like any of them. Once I no longer needed valor points I stopped running any of them unless a friend asks me to come with him.

    I like SFK since even though it's long, it's simplistic, and as a Pally I can pull of some nice numbers on there. Autocritting Exo <3
    VP is my second favorite, it's short, has great visuals and from a tanks PoV, none of the pulls are complicated or difficult, save for that one last pull with the magic suppression field...

    BRC, DM and SC I absolutely hate, when I PuG that is. With guild group Theyre a pleasure, but when pugging... Corla is a nightmare. So is the room before Ozruk, and DM is just too damn long, with the nightmare gauntlet being annoying as hell with a group of pugs.
