Love him or hate him, at least we can all agree that raid balance under his leadership was better than under the current leadership. The current encounter design team has managed to completely mess up on all 5 occasions in Legion:
Emerald Nightmare - grossly undertuned
Trial of Valor - grossly overtuned
Nighthold - the 2 heal raid
Tomb of Sargeras - the soak raid
Antorus - undertuned
There is clearly a systemic problem with the current team. I think that Ion should step down from his duties as Game Director and get the raiding ship back on course. He can't do that while directing the rest of the game. Otherwise, the future of raiding in WoW is looking bleak. Maybe with a new Game Director some of the terrible design decisions of Legion like Titanforging may go away as well. Does anybody else agree? Or should the current mob stay?
