Old Raids That Need Skips

Most of the time is spent walking.

So… much walking… even when using a mount its still so much…

Mt Hyjal was the only defensive raid. And only on 4 of the 5 bosses. Atchimonde is an offensive fight still - and the only difficult fight. also trash dropped gems and epic recepies.

This is just garbage reasoning.

Yeah I think the point of his post was to give me a passive aggressive insult and to not actually have a discussion about the raid itself.

@Voidarcane-whisperwind

Even the raids with 2 to 4 bosses lmao?

I’ve always hated running to where Onyxia is

@Monkiy-pagle

I also agree that ToC is actually a great raid

I also like ToC for the lack of trash

[Herné-moon-guard]

Yeah um, SoO definitely needs a skip, Icecrown citadel too while we’re at it, they’re both just way too long when you’re mog/mount farming specific bosses.

[Arinassa-pagle]

Brilliant.
This is a great idea. Often we want only the final boss of a raid like ulduar or garrosh, the mechanics exist and should be retroactive since we’ve run these old raids so … many … times …

[Gallows-korialstrasz]

A skip on mythic SoO would have been nice. I used the lockout trick for heroic. They finally dropped on a mythic run.

Add Ulduar to the list. After it became a time walking raid, they merged 10 and 25 man, which also merged the loot tables, bloating them so large that if you are farming mog off the last 2 bosses, have fun.

It wouldn’t be so bad if they upped the loot drops to 5 instead of 3.

Ideally if possible, 3 pieces from 25 and 2 from 10 man if its possible to program.

[Zoey-hyjal]

I’m sure that’s possible and would even be nice, but Ion needs to keep us on that treadmill.

hat’s because the raids you do are easy and don’t require mental breaks. When you get into more hardcore raiding you begin to realize the value of trash and trash respawns.

This is a weird, and woefully inaccurate attempt at flexing. If you watch the hardcore raiders you’ll see the they do death runs specifically to SKIP TRASH.

If they won’t put a skip in SoO they should adjust Immersus, Galakras and above all else Spoils of Pandaria to somehow be quicker.

Making Solo Farming in Old Legacy Raids Less... Annoying?

I’d rather see more efficiency in each run (time spend and drop chances) than turning raid farming towards this burnout end. If you could farm a raid each day, each day lost feels like fomo. A similar scenario already plays out when camping the MoP world bosses with 10s of chars. I did it with a few mounts from heroic 5mans (ZG, Utgarde Pinnacle) for some time and doing that on a daily basis was already a lot. It could even be a more ideal scenario when you could encounter these 1% drop bosse…

Apparently the CC is addressing this.

this is used out of context, they do it for speed, not for mental clarity.
