The new raid

It reminds me of being in High School and having to fulfill mandatory requirements to pass a class.

Upon pre purchasing of the Myrh Drannor pack, the customer base was assured a certain number of quests, a slayer area and a new raid. After the new content was released, we waited for the raid.

The raid was released today. Just like in High School to pass.a class, the MINIMUM requirement to fufill the obligation was done and only because it was a requirement.

I remember that at first they said they were going to do 2 raids and no explorer area, I guess they figure it would be easier to do the explorer area more than the raid, and to compensate they made it BIG

At my company we call that MVP (minimum viable product). It's like half baked cookies. Some people like them; they sort of function as cookies; sometimes they make people sick.

I haven't run it or anything, but it seems I'm missing nothing.

Pretty terrible raid in my opinion - possibly my least favorite so far. And that's too bad because I really like raiding.
  1. A tank and healer are forced to pike in the center room while the rest of the party goes and does other things. This is boring for those two players.
  2. The mechanics are rather uninteresting and uninspired. Nothing really new or exciting. Main boss is a Dracolich and all of the same attacks are recycled.
  3. They used extreme HP bloat as a substitute for new mechanics. No real tactics required. Combine the ridiculous HP with Myth Drannor mob DR and you have a boring, "stand and auto-attack for an hour" slogfest.
Point 1 and 2 are recycled ideas from Killing Time. This raid could be more aptly named "Wasting Time."

Honestly disappointing. I hope I don't need any loot from this raid. And even if I do I'll probably just pass it up and wait for the next raid.

i played the new raid on my healer and was impressed how 50% of the raid was me being afk because it was mindless boss beatdowns with nothing to do or the 10 entire minutes waiting for him to breath the phylactery holder. the raid was cool except it took like 45 minutes on hard cuz of how much waiting there was...
