You’ll have a fantastic time in there, especially if you have a meta at the end
I’m on the fence here.
I did complete the raid and it was fairly easy for me. BUT, it requires some coordination and isn’t “just hit the boss until its dead” like BFD.
I can see many extremely terrible people not clearing the raid for a while.
So if blizzard intends to make it a welfare item farm like p1, they can nerf it. I like it more that you have to use your keyboard in raids though so I like this state more.

Had our second run today. Every boss was one shot and it was pretty fun!
Was just the first id without any guide and losing nervs after power grinding dungeons to 40 xD
Blizzard have the data how succesfull all the raids are and Blizzard will decide if it needs nerf or not.
I unsuscibed today the raid is not fun for me with pugs. You got into pugs with absolutely clueless ppl. One person will leave after 2 hours and you are done for whole week.
Its pain without discord and its tedious and boring to clear so much trash and then wipe and wipe becouse ppl cant do simple mechanics.
In phase 1 I raided BFD with 3 chars all pugs, will probably quit at this point the raid is just too hard for avarege ppl. No point to play dead game.
No point to farm anything, bots already on rampage take over the AH so nothing is worth grinding. Economy is crashing again.
Slow respawn of monsters prevent any questing or grinding. Which means nothing to do.

How about a Mode, like Normal and Hc, and the only difference between the Normal and Hc mode is, that in Hc, the last boss have a chance to drop a mount, and in Normal dont
but Both Difficulty levels drop the same Quality of gear?

Well yeah, VC always helps with everything, but the original claim is not true.
VC isn’t mandatory and with every reset VC will get less impactful + you can always build a pug with VC if you think the people didn’t outgear the content already.
Why not join a guild then?
Wow classic literally about the social aspect and not about clearing fresh raids with undergeared pugs without VC.
Just the fact alone that you can easily clear a fresh raid week 1 with a no VC pug shows how relaxed the raid is tuned.
I have guild we didnt have enough ppl for second raid, so I had to pug, but I work shifts anyway I have no time for raiding at guild times. Social aspect? I want to play game and kill monsters and get loot, not to making friends.
maybe rethink playing MMORPGs.
Yea a BOE mount, so there’s potential gold in it for whoever completes, that’d be cool
Retail is way harder than any form of classic though
???
Had someone in a bg last night say something similar, for easy pvp play retail
what is wrong with classic players’ brains?
Why is it nice that some…even if they are bad, but trying, shouldent be allowed to finish the raid.
SoD needs LookingForGroup tool difficulty, normal and heroic mode. Is pretty hard to raid i cannot afford even findo a banda just to get in. I am 450 gs warrior hacha and no way to raid please add lfg
getting busted in by mekgineers high DTPS on tanks is not fun, especially when you are a. paladintank and b. a warrior cuck.
you cant be serious, gnomeregan is piss ez. Get better pugs or a guild perhaps

Has nothing to do with DPS if people just do mechanics. Where’s the hard part?`
1st Boss is a Tank and Spank as people can run with adds through gas clouds to make them disappear while one-shoting the mobs. Rinse and repeat. All DPS on Boss.
2nd. Boss - Slow/Snare/Kill adds (an acual announced cast), dont stand in green stuff. Prio Adds > Boss. GG.
3rd. Look at feet, go to sides if unsure. No other mechanic the whole fight. Tank and Spank
4th. 3 People run behind and infront of a stationary group (of 3 people) every 20 sec. Spiderlegs move away. Tank and Spank.
5th Boss. Interupts on Squirrel, move away from Dragons breaths (only mechanic to look out for). Go out on overheat if pressure is to high on healers. Tank and Spank rest while kitinng away from Sheep. Healers have endless mana when pressing buttons.
6th Boss. Have something with instant cast (Boomkin, Metamorph etc) clear bombs while taking turns clicking buttons with another Ranged. Kite Boss. Dispel stacks during frost. Interupts during nature. Buttons > DPS = GG.
But having played BFD with randoms during leveling on my Alts, seeing groups with 2 Rogues without interupts on Kelris, people dying on bubbles on Turtle, I guess just doing anything else than DPSing is “too hard”.
Thats why you think DPS will save the day, becuase thats all you know, thats the solution to every problem, mechanic and fight.

Last two bosses are mega tank + healing check. That’s where most people struggle I believe.
As a veteran classic raider this is absolutely not true. I cleared gnomer with pugs, its is not too hard, “just loot” is the retail way, classic raids were challenging when they came out and it should be even harder imo. It’s still too easy. What bugs me more is that theres actually little content atm. They saved STV for now with the AB Lumber but other than that, there’s not a lot to do.

Basically anything retail is bad and everything classic is good for your average Classic Andy.
Truth is there is good and bad for both. But if we speak difficulty, there is no contest. Retail is way more skill intensive than Classic. Both pve and pvp. Hell, LFR is harder than Classic raids xD
