After some communication with the classic team I’ve learned two things: 1) Badges of Justice are not intended to drop from Karazhan in phase 1 and 2) The pre-nerf difficulty was not properly applied yet to the raid tests we’ve ran.
most of the difficulty was and WILL be player driven
back on tbc i wiped dozens of times on HKM and Grull with the guild i was in
then took a week break , came back many of my friends moved to another guild, i got invited aaaaaand we one shotted HKM and Grull along with Mag and 2 hour clears on KZ… on the same patch
Players are who made it hard or not
Yeah cause telling us we are getting pre-nerf content and then having us test nerfed content is really reassuring! They were likely trying to see if they could get away without going back and rolling the nerfs back.
They never said they were going to re-tune fights beyond reworking them to a reasonable pre nerf state. Muru was the main example, the spell pushback wasn’t fun, but with pre nerf hp values could be possible in classic.
There already exists a hyper-buffed TBC, Atlantiss private servers.
