Afaik, 1-2 of 13 bosses have been tested and the PTR got just 2 patches.

No what? It says it right there it's scheduled to end the 29th.

Season doesn't have to end on patch day, y'know?

usually 1 or 2 weeks later patch drops. Seems Blizzard is on fire lol

The blue tracker would have picked up any real post.

Even if the blue post was deleted?

Unless it was deleted very very quickly. Either way, 5.2 is not complete.

I'd have hoped for them to wait till at least May/June with 5.2

That's pushing it to the edge of pushing it when it comes to people whining about no new content.

I don't believe this one bit. They've only tested one raid boss on PTR and that was riddled with DCs and constant errors. Unless they're planning on unleashing a whole new, untested surprise tier, I would highly doubt they'd push 5.2 that soon.

Besides that, it would only be 5 months of Tier 14, and that's a pretty historical low for content age, right up there with Ulduar, Naxx and Firelands.

Well, what's the point of content if we don't get enough time to take advantage of it. Clearing it all once on HC won't get you BIS geared. It takes many months to BISify a whole raid group.

I'd say that pegs 5.2 for being late February/early March.

March 6th is my guess.

A slight possibility that they could release it in major sections. Like ICC. So theoretically only need to test 1-4 bosses and continue testing of the others while thats been released. I doubt this would happen but you never know.

If they can use Photoshop to make Beyonce a white girl with blonde hair, I'm sure someone can make that "post" in some minutes.

Even if this is the case, they would need to test 4 bosses in 10-man, 25-man, heroic 10-man, heroic 25-man, and LFR in the span of two weeks. This seems near impossible when they've only tested one boss on 10-man thus far and haven't announced any tests for the immediate future.

Right, end bosses like C'thun being literally impossible to kill in its current state for a month and a half, or Vashj mind-controlling half the raid, prevent Tier 5 from being cleared for months, is so much fun.

I think:

12th Feb -6 bosses open
19th Feb -raid complete and 2/4 LFR
26th Feb Open HC's and 4/4 LFR
