Well we blasted through ZG in a few hours and basically ignored all boss mechanics and tank and spanked our way through. Is it supposed to be this easy? Back in the day we had lesser gear and it was much more challenging. Zero challenge. Not sure if it was tuned down or we just got better with better gear or both?
It’s a catch up raid
Yes.
It’s a catch up raid.
Yeah, it was easy on vanilla also if you had full raid gear.
The only difference I noticed was half the trash mobs were missing. Trust me in this, remove 75% of your gear from all your raid team and it will feel a lot more like you remember it. If that doesn’t quite get you there then retalent your character to something less optimal with at least 70% of your raid epics missing.
People dont remember the talents and itemization we had when ZG was first released in vanilla. What we are playing is a nerfed catchup of a nerfed catchup.
Remember when mages had to spec into evocation? And druids couldn’t tank? And caster gear had 0 spell power on it? Pepperidge farm remembers…
Any raid is too easy when you overgear it.
Exactly, zg is a stop gap raid for new players and alts and new raiders to cut their teeth on. It’s a beautiful raid and on fresh alts with suboptimal builds its still manageable but a lot more challenging because you will need to play a lot more of the boss mechanics, I know they’re basic, but when under geared and in a non raid spec it would actually be super fun.
Hilarious, hours after it came out someone made a post about it being too hard.
Back in the day people didn’t know how to play, the entire game will be this easy, even naxx40.
As with everything in classic wow, yes. Its absurdly easy. It was always going to be easy, buts it even easier with the current talents etc.
Private servers got a lot wrong and things were harder because of that.
That’s literally the entire classic, molten core with burning crusade talents lol
its a joke, the game was re-worked to make everything better, and we get the old content with new skills.
You are a better player and you’re carrying less bad ones. Simple.
I don’t think anyone has pointed it out yet, but it’s a catch up raid.
These aren’t TBC talents, these are the reworked talents that were done during Classic.
Each class or two had their own patch during vanilla.
pugged it.
wasn’t ‘too easy’. for a 20man raid it was fine. Hakkar took 2 attempts, rest was one-shot.
difficulty for a catch-up raid was fair.

turn off dbm.
no raid is hard until naxx lol
and yet pugs can’t kill onyxia in 5 tries and disband.
Take off you gear and turn off dbm. Problem solved.
