The Ruby Sanctum, sounds too much like OS to me...

[Auxis]

So I read the blue post about the Ruby Sanctum, and it seems to me that they have used the idea of 3 "optional bosses" and the main boss.
I was hoping they could have had a new setup for the new Sanctum.
Feel free to opinionate (does that word exist?).

It's all speculation.

It could be a system like Sarth+3, it could be a wave system like Hyjal. I'm more partial to the 2nd option, considering the wording.

First you must face the assault of Halion's servants, Saviana Ragefire, Baltharus the Warborn, and General Zarithrian, before squaring off against Halion the Twilight Destroyer, a new and deadly force in this realm.

Keyword being assault. It might be a wave system.

First off, the bosses aren't optional. Since heroic mode Ruby Sanctum is activated the same way as heroic mode ICC, you won't get extra loot for leaving the minibosses up, and will probably HAVE to kill them.

Second, RS is essentially a second wing to OS, of course it's gonna be similar.

I got a mutual feeling OP. That of which you described and the (seemingly) tiny map.

[Silenteyes]

I hope not, i'm not a huge fan of OS

*The lieutenants are sub-bosses which will each drop an Emblem of Frost. Halion is the main boss. While the activation of Heroic difficulty is different from the Obsidian Sanctum, the overall raid format for the Ruby Sanctum is very comparable.
Quote from Zarhym (spelling correct?).

While the format is similar, I somehow doubt the bosses will be. Don't really see the problem.

I'm pretty sure this is how it'll be now that you mention it

[Bluey111]

Its suppose to be like OS, its under wyrmrest =P

[SpacelySprocket]

Either Hyjal 2.0 or OS 2.0

Pick the raid you liked better, and hope it's like that

[Paranoia]

If I read the latest thing right didnt they say the hard mode would not be like OS (the +1/2/3 thing)
