    Wiping in Cata Heroics.

    Loving every second of it. Anyone else agree?

    I'm fine with it, except for the fact that a lot of these instances are gigantic and it takes up to 10 minutes to run back in. There's a lot of empty space in some of them, and it's really annoying when learning the fights from scratch and wiping often. Dungeons don't all have to be like Violet Hold, but when you end up spending most of the session just running through a cleared dungeon, it might be a bit too much.

    It would be great if they had done something like, say, allow players to enter mounted but not to mount up inside. That way you could recover from the inevitable frequent wipes in a more timely manner without encouraging people to ride between pulls while actually clearing the place.

    Done most of them already and wiped normally trying to do achievements. They're not terribly hard, but they're better than Wrath heroics were.

    I guess goin heroix when you just hit 329 average item level aint good idea.
    Get as more gear you can, will make your way through heroix a hell of a lot easier.
    Loving the difficulty, loving the challenge, not loving ppl trying to kill stuff in there in "wotlk way".
    Usually resulting in either some ppl dying or whole group wiping or just me running out of mana after every pull with all mana regen CDs on cd.

    I asume people have noticed the portals usually to the left of the entrace in most if not all dungeons to port you close to where you wiped (asuming you've killed at least some bosses to actually be deep in the instance). ?

    I hoped they would be much more harder. Like in TBC. It was impossible to do Arcatraz unless you are decently geared from other dungeons. Now most of PuG's may complete any if enough effort is put in.

    Yes, i enjoy wiping!

    It makes you learn

    Wiped 4 times on the last boss of Grim Batol Normal last night, but as we killed him, it felt like killing a WOTLK raid boss for the first time

    Unbalanced does not equal hard.

    This is how it should be. If you fail, you wipe. If you do everything right, you win
    This is good!

    There are Ulduar/ICC type portals in the dungeons.

    I'm loving what I've done so far which is only the last boss of Throne of the Tides so far (very easy fight on heroic sad as that is), but then in HSFK the first boss is retarded hard if you don't have the interrupts for his heals so be prepared but yeah very fun being able to wipe in heroics again =D

    You wipe for a reason, wiping makes you learn why you fail

    I loved Arcatraz, and I was primarily tank back then. Everyone else seemed to hate it, though.

    Now most of PuG's may complete any if enough effort is put in.
    so PuGs shouldn't be able to run them, no matter how good they are? :P Also, at least for the first few days, those "randoms" would mostly be those half-insane non-casuals that powerlevelled to 85, so a certain amount of dedication is there anyway
    But your duty to Azeroth is not yet complete. More is demanded of you... a price the living cannot pay.

    I enjoy it with guildies. last pug I had was some cocky druid who used all caps and gave up after 2 attempts with his guildies.

    but overall yes. probably wiped over 50 times so far and done every heroic cept for stone core

    Totally agree with OP, loving it!
    Remember to always be yourself, unless you suck.

    You don't wipe on the toilet, you whipe there


    I love the new heroics and they're the best! It's fun to kill a boss that you've been wiping on for some time until you get the right strategy :>
