Yeah last I looked, he doesn’t raid anymore.
He finally succeeded in his goal of making raiding such a miserable chore, even he doesn’t want to do it anymore.

I shouldn’t laugh at that because it really isn’t funny… but it also kinda is.

Lately Blizzard seems obsessed with having a cinematic quality to the start of the raid. Some kind of big set-piece to kick things off. I can appreciate that, but probably you should be able to skip past this part of the raid pretty early in prog without needing to extend. Just some kind of live service entrance into the raid or something like that.
The raid skips lately are so weird. They design raid skips basically for AOTC sales and for people to farm the mount at the end of the raid 4 years after the raid comes out. It’s very bizarre.

So this is going to end up being our new raid boss? 
That’s not all they need to add to their staff, judging by how poorly some of the class/spec setups have been handled.

Yeah having actual class designers instead of having the PvP guy do it is also needed.
I’ve been saying for years, class design needs to always be the #1 priority, since our character classes are the means through which we interact with every part of the game.

Lord, don’t get me started on that pvp vs pve issue. It really makes no sense that almost all pve changes are based on the pvp side of the house, at least that is what so many of my guild mates have said.
They have a way for us to separate dps, tank and healing spcs but depend on pvp for balancing? That makes absolutely no sense what-so-ever. We have to flag for WM why not have pvp flag setup just like that, and leave pve alone.

They really need to find a way to decouple pve and pvp.

Pretty much every global buff and nerf is for PvE for a long time.
Sometimes they get a counter buff/nerf in pvp to offset it or pvp specific changes.
But if you want to get laughed at hard go post in the arena forums about pvp buffs impacting PvE.

I’ll mention that to some of our veteran pvpers who actually were the ones talking about this and told me that many things to balance pve actually are based upon pvp.
If they go the mythicier route they should do it like they do 5-mans and just have 1 set of mechanics where the numbers get tuned up and down depending on how much mythicer+ your raid can handle. It’d be less of a mess than what we have now.

With less than a month to go to get AOTC, ill take the nerfs for sure! Not everyone has guilds at the same skill level of CE. I appreciate this coming in the clutch.

Blizzard has cut this tier so short that unless you raid 10.8 hours a week, which is more than most 3 night a week guilds raid, then you’ll have less time invested than it took ECHO to claim world first by the time the tier closes. That’s how insanely unbalanced this tier is. Mythic isn’t meant to be a 4+ night a week commitment for the average CE guild. Currently just over 400 guilds have CE, SOD which had multiple bosses that guilds got stuck on still had over 1700 guilds get CE. You absolutely have no idea what you’re talking about if you’ve never raided Mythic in a serious manner let alone earned a CE.

this has to be satire like this has to be
I think these nerfs are still not enough, especially on Anduin. My guild has decided to stop trying for CE after we saw the notes for next week’s reset. We were waiting to see if this latest round of nerfs would be enough for us to keep going but sadly the overall majority of the officers/raiders decided they were not enough.
Really disappointed in this raid tier. I’ve been raiding since MC and honestly never felt this disenchanted with raiding. I don’t even think we’re going to raid in S4. Sad times.

If youre still on Andy then theyd have to nerf the 4 bosses so hard to get CE in 4 weeks it would be a clownfest. Its already nerfed to the point of not being a real CE like Sire and Sylv were.
I think it would still be an issue, the season was short.
