Enjoy what? All of this gear should have been available months ago. It’s now being introduced when it is utterly useless, instead of just slightly useless.
This plenty of guilds on servers aren’t reliably through AQ40. This helps them clear it pre-naxx. It hurts literally no one and only helps people that are behind.
Half the problem is using NR on Visc. Well at least Horde side. Once we stopped using NR gear and basically turned the fight into the inverse version of Razorgore, the fight became quite easy. We don’t have a massive amount of people using sappers either. I think we might have 10-13 total.
.
If your roommate is Alliance side, I have heard the fight is significantly harder. But I still think using NR gear is the wrong way to go because the portion of the fight where the blobs split is really where you need the dps to get them in range for mass death.
We have been clearing visc for months now and none of us use any nature rez gear. Most the time we one phase him but even if it takes 2 the fight is easy and not only does it no require NR gear but wearing it is just bad. One prayer of healing cancels a volley so it literally does nothing at all.
TLDR the right special recipe for this fight is not crappy nr gear its goblin sappers and 5 combusting blast waves.
It is accurate to Vanilla. In my opinion, this is one of those times they should have made an exception and altered the schedule to release those patterns when they released P5. Unfortunately, that gear is now going to be under utilized across the board. That’s fine generally speaking, but it does leave a bit of a sour taste for me
