If only we could get you to quit vn as much as you quit wow. One can dream.



Just out of interest, how do you post as "anonymous"?


Not that it's likely to be much use to me; I'd rather offend people and have the post count.

So I don't know where the healing problem lies. (Not saying there isn't one, just haven't seen it.)(Yet.)



- Healing mechanics are boring now. They are not particularly hard (in fact I think they're easier than ever), and healing IS viable or ppl would not be able to complete runs. It's just too spammy, slow and uninteresting.


- Healers are often abused for not healing through the mistakes of others.

The interwebz can tell who has a soul and who doesn't, it assigns 'anonymous' to those without.

I'm suspicious that it's a bug that comes from logging between more than one account.

Not that we know anyone here who would do that.

Thanks, but it's been fun
Five more minutes then I'm done!
I've been saying that to myself since
...yesterday.

Lacking the nuts to say what you want to say on your main account coooooould be equated to having no soul.

I can't believe this thread made it to 8 pages after the morality police showed up.

Just spent two hours doing a heroic, only downed one boss. One guildie and the rest pugged. Amazing group of players, we all tried really hard. Was nice to meet some intelligent and kind players.

First boss dropped leather which no one could wear.

Other than meeting three nice strangers, and learning a little more about the mechanics of the 2nd boss, it was a complete waste of time. No loot for anyone, no JP's (since they're rewarded at the end instead of per boss), and a 50+ gold repair bill on top of it all.

Everyone says higher difficulty means it feels more rewarding when you do finally win. Total bull. Just makes you look back on the passed 2 hours and wonder wtf was it all for.

I didn't want an expansion as easy as LK. The pendulum swung a bit too far the other way, however. My two hours a day of free time will not be spent playing this crap anymore.

I always wonder about these posts when I watch youtube videos of instances being completed by competent players who are correctly geared for the content. I still love the avatar, but I would suggest that you read up on the encounters and correctly gear up for the content.

I remember when everyone used to complain about Arc in TBC. That was one of my favorite instances, dropped good gear and didn't take a rocket scientist to complete it in a reasonable amount of time.
