Just corious... where are my dungeons?!?!

Just corious... where are my dungeons?!?!

5 mans added after launch in
Classic: Dire Maul (3 wings)
TBC: Magister's Terrace
WotLK: Trial of the Champion, 3 with ICC
Cata: Updated ZA/ZG, 3 with Dragon Soul

Generally speaking we don't often get new dungeons until the last patch or two. Considering a big reason the 5 mans were requested was for non-raiders to have some content to access, that is now addressed by LFR more than in BC or Wrath or even Cata until final patch. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see additional heroics until 5.4 or the final patch of the expansion.

Finally someone is noticing this! Before Blizz added 5-mans alongside raids. Now they're adding scenarios...

I'm highly concerned Blizz will phase out 25-mans and turn 5-mans into the small-group raids, 10-mans into the large-group raids, and scenarios into the leveling content.

Just to sumarize my option on Scenarios.... they SUCK. I've never done one because I had the feeling to, since they're a pure waste of time and I'd rather log out than do one out of boredom.

Dunno if it's true, was googling on 5.2 and found this website.

[Penguintamer]

I think these were on the frontpage for a little while, or at least in another thread when all of this 5.2 info first came out, so it must be true.

Again, see my post above. Blizzard released a total of 8 raids in BC with one single 5 man. Wrath released 4 raids with additional 5 mans in the final two patches (1 and then 3 dungeons to go with the raid). Cata released 2 revamped instances as heroics with Firelands and then the 3 with Dragon Soul.

If anything, the precedent is set that we'd get 3 heroics in the last patch more than with each raid.

You've never done one and so they must suck? Great logic there.

They're a quick run on something while waiting for an LFR or heroic queue, I think. I'd like to see Blizz expand their use for storytelling in-game more than the first taste in MoP, though.

Why would Horde and Alliance be taking quests from the Sunreaver Scout Captain Elsia?

Still. Nice to see she wasn't forgotten.

They are instant queues for dps, something to do while waiting for LFG/LFR/BGs since those queues take a bit longer.

Also, if you don't do/care about scenarios, why the hell did you click on this thread?

Because I want dungeons... sweet and juicy dungeons which offer you rewards and not another "28,5g bag".

ooh those scenario's sound pretty good

always like doing a few when i got some spare time, their quick and fun.

[MerinPally]

Hopefully they'll be decent, I've not done many scenarios but I did Scenaturday and it was the most horrible experience of my life, everyone in my guild hates Scenarios. Guess it can't hurt to give it another go but they don't seem to be for me

Yes, I agree with you that Blizzard should not forget about existing characters, developing them properly, rather than creating new ones.

However I hope that the matter you indicate is a mistake, and that the Alliance quest giver is Scout Captain Daelin (the counterpart of the Alliance for Scout Captain Elsia of the Horde), since it would make little sense that a Sunreaver attends the Alliance.

Unless... Oh my God! No way!

You know how many raids came along with dungeons in content patches in wow history? 4.That doesn't seem like a pattern to me
