    - Cata - Didn't bother touching most raids and have avoided raid guilds as I got my fill when my WotLK guild stopped raiding after we finally downed Sindy for the one (and only) time we did, but finally cleared end-game content while it was current.

    I don't raid for the loot. I raid for the content. And it was SO good. Had the bow and the polearm drop on the same run the first time in LFR DS.

    And since the content in LFR = the content in Heroic, it's all the same to me. I did not say the loot, I did not say the difficulty. I said the content, and that's the important part to me. Only difference is bigger numbers.
    the reason i dont count LFR is because it's too easy, but yeah, it's the same content.

    ooops. that's where you are wrong. the numbers are smaller yes, but that isn't what makes it harder, LFR doesn't have some of the mechanics.

    Sadly, I'm the highest dps in my group, by far, although we have a mage with the Legendary Staff, and I'm a DK. (Not trying to boost my epeen, I swear!)

    Well outside of the heroic differences in each fight they are pretty damn close.

    My luck in Vanilla was going through BWL.
    BC I cleared everything and was 4/6 before the nerfs in Sunwell.
    Wrath I was heroic everything besides LK.
    and now I have everything on clear in Cata.

    Every time I just get more and more awesome.

    Ever since I got my computer my dps has just gone up even more. I am easily top 5 in my guild and that is if I am not in top 3, which I am on most fights.

    get in a group for regular today on the third boss, 2 wipes before the kill, then we couldn't get past 4th boss trash.
    Ouch, that hurts.

    Content yes, but not the difficulty, but you choose how you wish to play the game and if that is fine with you, then that is okay with me.

    before the first sunwell nerf the 2nd ( or was it 3rd? ) boss was not killable. was back in the day when blizzard decided that it would stop group stacking by making an encounter 100% unkillable till they wanted it cleared.

    Muru cockblock eh?

    I could go over my raid history... but its really 2 much. Didn't raid much in BC, raided a lot in LK, killed every boss normal mode at content, some heroics, raided a lot 4.0 in cata.

    Noteworthy things are server first reg halion though I'm not really proud of that one, pretty early reg 25m LK kill and herald of the titans.

    no, the story is the same, the content ie the basic encounters, are different in as significant a way as regular is to heroic :P

    No not cock block, although he would have been. We just got down the Eridar Twins the week before the nerf, but Muru was far too much. I did quite enjoy Sargeras though, his fight was definitely well tuned, even after the nerf.

    ohh as far as raiding went, started in vanilla late MC then cleared most things at current content.
    my favorite thing was BWL, the room with the spellbinders, I got to Kite them around while my group killed the others, was really fun.
    after a month or so doing it i could do it without a healer

    I like it. The proportions are very good, and that's important. Manes are a bitch at first, until you realize you're trying too hard. Unless you're going for realism, you only want a few broad strokes, none of that draw-ever-hair insanity.

    Looks like I missed some fun a couple hours ago. "I don't enjoy the show, so my only conclusion is other people like it for hipster/porn/immaturity/mommy-didn't-love-me reasons". Freaking eh. This is why people kill each other over ideas. "My opinion must be the only valid opinion, everyone else is broken." Really dragging the term "sentient" through the dirt there...

    Long day, long night, going to bed. I leave you with a bit of d'aww that'll be in the next ALR update, which will be up when people stop distracting me and let me finish! >.<

    Ah yeah. Tail end of BC is when I started watching the raid firsts and server ranks. Watching Sargeras get killed so soon after Muru was a disappointment.
