From the daily news from the PTR it looks like Blizz wants to make the raids harder… Please stop it.
You can’t balance raids around sweaty players and expect the other 95% of the player basis that doesn’t do PTR to enjoy it. If you make a game dictated by whales you will make a game only played by whales, which at that point even the whales will stop playing as they run out of people to play with.
You already had Rag as a super hard boss, leave it as it was and let the rest be some what easy. I guarantee it won’t be face roll for everyone even on its easiest patch.
Also if the only thing your gonna say is just do normals, I don’t care about your opinion as the servers are already dying with people that don’t care to do just normals.
Make a game for whales and you will only have whales play your game until all the non whales leave and then the whales will stop playing as well.

95% of the players don’t want an impossible task. Don’t balance around them, they don’t understand good game design. No other game genre works like this.
A 13/13 guild that cleared everything week 1 isn’t a good game testing team.

Most the people complaining about FL should be harder are the ones that no life on the PTR so the challenge is milked completely away upon release anyway.
Kinda funny how that works.

Blizzard has figured out that 95% of players have either moderately or greatly improved performance since the release. This is a QoL improvement.

I want to play Firelands like it was in Cata. Normal is there for you if you want to faceroll.

Harder raids are optional; they are not mandatory. If you can’t or don’t want to participate in them, then simply don’t. It’s common sense. There’s no need to spoil the game for others who seek an additional challenge—let them have it.
The content, being over 15 years old, is familiar to many who achieved a 13/13 record in Week 1; they’ve either mastered it in the past or played it on private servers. Just because you didn’t experience it during its retail release or on a private server doesn’t obligate Blizzard to accommodate you. If you’re looking for an easy experience, clear the normal difficulty; if you’re up for progression, then tackle the heroic difficulty.

Cata raids aren’t hard. What are you so upset about? Mythic raids in retail are hard, but this content is not. If you’re struggling with Cata normal raids, maybe it’s time to rethink if raiding really is for you or… GIT GUD.
They aren’t making the raids harder, the raids on PTR are still EASIER than they were 14 years ago, are you saying you’re still worse than a player from 14 years ago?
How have you not gotten better in 14 years?
It’s unlikely they played 14 years ago. They speak as if this content is new and are surprised that players are defeating bosses in one shot, bosses that were likely mastered 14 years ago. However, the age of the content doesn’t necessarily mean everyone has experienced it before.
I’m not suggesting they did, I didn’t do it back then.
But I’m willing to bet they have played wow for 10+ years by now, I doubt they are new players.
So why aren’t they better than players from 14 years ago?
If they’re that hard just turn it on normal? Why wouldn’t you want something to strive for

He just wants his participation trophy epics

This is also the reason people desire Heroic+ dungeons and the accompanying vendors.
I mean that gear is trash.
I’m not sure how Blizzard is handling the gear, but if they follow the Wrath of the Lich King model, they will add heroic loot to the vendors and add normal loot to the heroic + dungeons. Then if they want to make it worse, they’ll add heroic loot to normal raids!!!
Have fun when all the servers are even more dead than they currently are.
No one wants normal modes after the first few weeks of raiding and then the game just keeps dying.
Did you ever wonder why WoW never regained it’s peek numbers in Wotlk?
But yeah keep making the same mistakes again and again expecting different results.

Because MMOs died?
Notice how no MMO can match those numbers, MMOs are a niche game now.
I’m sorry a heroic raid that’s easier than it was 14 years ago is too hard for you
You should go play hello kitty island adventure, I hear it’s easy.
Doing heroic raid content is OPTIONAL!!!
