I think it's cute that people are complaining about the challenge set armors when none of them will even come close to obtaining them.

"Raiders liked the Patch 4.0 dungeons, but LFD users found them frustrating. Most people who are doing the heroic dungeons are now using the LFD tool, making it necessary to make the dungeons easier. This leaves Challenge Modes for players that want content that is harder."

That sucks, why can't we just have normal and heroic dungeons like we used to? LFD players need some goal to improve towards instead of just being spoonfed faceroll content.

Question about the Gurth hotfix... What was bugged about it? I've been playing a Fury Warrior with Heroic Gurth in the MH for the last 3 weeks and I haven't noticed anything off about it.

Simply, it is fixed due DKs' DnD and Blood Boil use on packs led to the transformation of the scenery into a perversed anime...

''There is a little bit of Titan vs. Old God lore in Mists, but it is way way way under the surface.''

Though I wonder whether if by this they mean the Klaxxi upon hitting exalted mentioning Y'shaarj or are we going to face yet another Old God?

And that's pretty much what Challenge mode offer...

You want to be fed ? Farm LFD
You want some challenge ? Try improving your time in challenge mode
You are really good at this game ? Nice, go for gold medal everywhere for your shiny challenge mog armor

At least its' how I hope it will be. Can't wait to really test challenge mode by myself, hoping something really hard.

You plan to solo the challenge mode dungeons?

WHAT is going on with those Shaman challenge mode shoulders? Ugliest (and THE most stupidly gigantic) set ever.

Huge shoulders seems to be the thing for challenge mode sets. At least the ones Ive seen. Some of the procs are cool but the gear is too ugly to wear despite that.

A few of the dev interviews lately had questions about "hide shoulders" so you think they would at least make some sets with small shoulders if they arent going to let us hide them. I guess not but I wish they would because I hate big shoulders. WTB hide shoulders.

Don't worry, challenge modes will be getting a queue system too, and nerfed, if we know blizzard well enough, we can't have some one with gear other people can't get!.

it's a game, not a 10 year plan to give your life structure.

They ran a beta test on them the other day. 1st place was 15mins, 6th place was 30 mins, and first was still a few mins away from gold. So yes, they are hard and the odds of anyone here getting even one gold is very very low let alone getting gold in all the dungeons. So yes, complaining about gear you'll never get.

Cant understand that they nerf warriors again, s12 will just be another s11 ...

You plan to solo the challenge mode dungeons?

Cause finding a group when you are a decent player is hard (of course I don't talk about full gold medal, wich will need a dedicated group) ? Even the most casual player (for me casual = less time to play, not bad) can go challenge. It's time trial, means you have like 45 minutes (random number, depend on dungeon) to make it. No massive amount of time needed, no gear needed, only some skills and communication inside the group. If you don't want to do that, LFD is the only thing possible. You can't ask for something hard and at the same time no communication-aoe-spam-fest like LFD is.

And don't hope that challenge mode could make it with random queu, it will of course lead to massives nerfs, like always when the mass touch something in this game (not a rant, just a fact actually).
