I don’t get it, you made a version of the game to experience new experimental stuff? Awesome! However, you told everyone you wanted Alts, and a more casual embrace on a classic version, along with making PvP more engaging…Great!
Then you set a precedent in Phase 1 with Hunters, and then completely ignore that precedent in Phase 2 and into 3…Now BG’s are (for the most part) an unenjoyable experience unless you are a Shaman or another semi broken class…
You made the barrier to entry on a Raid impossible for 75% of the community and the World first Guild Players are saying “Uh, this is like heroics in retail” …
I’m not championing for easy content that’s just handed out, but you could see a struggle for some to even finish Gnomer and you just decided to say “What the Hell” lets make it absolutely ridiculous, and make it so long it take 3-4 hours to complete…
People can get all that “type” of content in Retail, Classic Era, or Wrath(soon to Cata)
You had more engagement in Phase 1 and early Phase 2 because people want to chill and PLAY a GAME with their 15 bucks a month…not be gaslit by a Dev on Twitter.
Do Better and just decide what you want this version to be and be TRANSPARENT so people can decide what to play.

The barrier of completing thermaplugg was literally “press buttons and kill bombs”. Seriously, that’s it. Hey look, bombs. Where are they coming from? Oh that dispenser. That button there should turn it off, let me press it. Easy.
Gnomer is a bad example. Now, Eranikus? That’s an example.
