in the World of Warcraft gaming universe.

Aha!
At least part of the supremely easy ZA run is explained.

Turns out the Tree of Life buff was actually giving 300% healing bonus. Teensy eensy weensy whups.
It’s been hotfixed now. I expect that ZA will still be easy, mind you. But maybe I’ll get to help out with the healing. I was WONDERING why the shaman chain heal was able to heal the tanks that well.

Hey can someone tell me if the the Heroic dungeons are weak-sauce now too?
Full kara clear last night 1 hour 40 minutes, and we weren’t rushing at all. WTH it’s not even fun.

Not even fun?! Are you kidding?
Want a challenge? Grab your hunter buddy and go make him tank with a gorilla. Or get that warrior or bear or paladin alt that’s been sitting idle for months and make him tank. Or make the boomkin heal.
Go in with a full group of priests!
All the abilities and instances are tuned towards level 80, and with the way you get less bang for your buck the higher you go, it means that level 70 stuff is sort of easymode for level 70 people in decent gear.
Heroic Dungeons are weak-sauce? Go go go achievements. You don’t have credit for any but a couple of them, if any. Time to start cracking! Speed runs. 5 heroics in a night. GO.
You now have no excuse to have any guildies NOT decked out in a full set of badge gear.

Ok I suspected that. It’s more of a rush to get geared and be contenders in the expansion. My priest already has a full healing set from the vendor and will probably have a full set of shadow gear in a couple weeks as well. I can even pull my mage out of battle grounds and work on pve again!
Great blog btw and fantastic writing by all of the contributors.

But…..where is my 300% buff?

Curator down before the first evocation! :] 48sec of fight. *epic*
Is all easy mode. I made a full ZA clear last night with 4 peeps on first time. We manage the 4th chest with 15min to spare. Like a strawberry on a icecream cake. We downed Hex and Zul’jin in more 30min. Less then a Hour on ZA = fun.
Did you guys see the movie on wowmovie “Gruul’s lair speedrun 5:52min” ?
