From 10-man guild pov, I dont like this. How TotC worked was much better.
Do normal mode first, get some emblems, some gear. Then spend the rest of the raiddays working on heroic.
I think the people that dont like the TotC way are all from 25man guilds. Cause apparently they are forced to do 10mans aswell and not just the heroic version but also the normal version.
The way Uld works and how ICC will work sucks, as u have to chose between gearing up and going for the hard mode again. But you wont hear 25man complaining about that as they have 10man to gear up in.
WTB Normal and Heroic versions and to prevent any complaining about having to do the same boss 4x, put 10 & 25man on the same lockout. Well not really, would limit the possibilities for 'smaller' 25man guilds (cant go 2 groups of totc 10 when they lack a few people) so dont want them to lose the option but dammit, stop complaining about having to do them 4x then
Bit more on topic: an option in your ui, dont kill a certain mob, press a big red button,... It's all the same anyway imo. Aslong as the encounters are a bit more different and not just harder hitting, I'm game.
