I haven’t ran into anyone that says the same heh
I mean yea its got long RP and its a newb trap but besides that i like the theme and characters involved… maybe im weird i guess i dunno. There is usually always one that leaves when its deadmines too.
I like it because of all the bosses. You get a ton of JP from a full clear.
Also don’t forget any rep you might be working on.
I don’t particularly like it but it’s only like 10 mins longer than average dungeons yet people will happily eat a 30 minute debuff to avoid it. People are weird.
I think it’s fun, but right now the pool of players in heroics are lacking skills.
Most of the skilled/good players are done w/Valor and are raiding, etc.
I can tell you since I got the one and only missing piece out of ZG or ZA last week, I’ve not been back into any heroics. Naturally I got the better version in raid the following day 
Deadmines is fine. Wish more dungeons had some length to them, I like SFK too.
Though I have zero reasons to really go into the non-troll dungeons anymore and the troll ones I never PUG.
Oh I know. It’s just depressing. I thought I’d run those for enchanting mats… apparently ZA/ZG, though long dungeons and not dropping blues, are better for jp to buy them - and the ability to sell nice enchants to buy dust.
I’d run more of them for JP to buy things like that but tbh – I’ve run them over and over in normal and over and in heroic - and I’m kind of burned out.
Now I run them only to help out guildmates or friends.
Plus I’m also working on pre-patch stuff in retail. Probably won’t play but… If I decide to… will be easier to get them all to 70 now than later.
I enjoy all the dungeons, when I’m in a decent group. I do a few between raids just for skill maintenance, but let me tell you, it’s brutal right now since ZA/ZG came out. I thought I’d go back and do normal heroics, given how groups are struggling in the troll dungeons…nope…got Deadmines first, it took a solid hour, totally burned me out and I hated myself for not leaving.
Later that evening, I got Vortex Pinnacle…50 minutes. They wouldn’t interrupt the Adepts, despite being gently reminded, they basically made every possible mistake, then we get stuck on Asaad, which I didn’t think was possible. No. No thanks, I’ll just shoot the target dummies for a few minutes a day. I don’t like leaving groups, and I don’t like kicking people, so I’m just going to stick to raiding with my guild, for now.
It’s a dungeon that’s nifty to do exactly once and then never again.
You are definitely not alone. Myself, and other members of TDEC, including this thread’s own Worgette, who from time to time speaks formally on our behalf also enjoy Deadmines.
I’m pretty sure the people that leave aren’t thinking about the dungeon taking a little longer than the other ones. More like an hour long lol. Cause like I said it is a newb trap and there are things that you do in the dungeon that make it a breeze or a living hell if ignored. Thankfully for the most part it really only takes just one person to know what is going on to carry the group through it. Unlike the troll dungeons where they require everyone to be on the same page, mostly.
It’s not just you, I like H Deadmines too. It’s just that players don’t want to spend 10 more minutes in a dungeon, so they’ll eat a 30 min. deserter debuff instead (which makes no sense).
It was actually one of my favorites in Cata back then. Halls of Origination however, just no, lol. That place is long.
you are the minority just like people who watch the same movie over and over again and find joy doing so. Most people just do not want to do something they already done, is tedious and know how much time it will take no matter what they do.
I have always liked Deadmines too, the people that don’t like it are the ones that min max because it effectively takes an extra few minutes of their time to complete it.Bygones be bygones to those people that dislike it though.
the only issue is ripsnarl tbh. we can save so much time out of him his phase is SO stupid.
u dont need 2 mini bosses like that, we could also just remove cookie but hes og.
the guantlet itself isnt even bad or vanessa.
it prolly woulda been better if they made a deadmines 2 with all diff stuff
than just that and running a gauntlet again in a dungeon we already did.
old dm forever tho.
I hate to break it to you, but this is all dungeons in all expansions of WoW, so why would DM be singled out. Every dungeon is a rinse and repeat.
It is because skills issue (people die to rotating electrical things, fire rotating things, etc) and it takes 10 min longer than regular Heroics.
I think someone summed it pretty well 
I wouldnt say “like” but I dont mind it, I certainly dont understand the hate so many people seem to have for it.
Because not all dungeons are the same so what you’re rinse and repeating matters.
And a lot of people don’t like Deadmines for reasons that have been clearly explained beyond it takes longer.
