Who cares if it’s easy mode?
Prior to the 3.0.2 patch my guild had been pregressing well, but slowly. Probably the hardest thing we’d managed was the first boss of Mount Hyjal.
Last night, Officers arranged a trip into Black Temple. An opportunity to suss out the old content before people start getting their teeth into all the lovely new content that’s coming with Wrath. It was planned a couple of weeks in advance, the strats for the first boss were researched and posted on our forums, people got excited.
We got a great turnout – 23 guildies I think, plus a couple from our raiding alliance guild. And we trounced the place! The first boss went down without a problem. The second boss went down without a problem. We had one wipe on the Shade of Whatsit, but regrouped and took him down second time. And we rounded off the night taking down Teron Gorefiend.
It was fun, and it was new. I love the nerfs. I love that I can see this content. Thank you Blizzard 
I think it’s great how nerfing content has created a lot of excitement for a lot of people. They’re now getting the opportunity to see content that they probably would have never otherwise seen pre-expansion and they’ve benefiting from the change. It’s really awesome and I love when we take people into our raids and they get the enjoy their first downing of Illidan or Archimonde!
Personally, I love how the loot is flowing, but like many of my guildies I’m a little disappointed with the ease. We were one of those guilds at the cusp of full clear prior to 3.0.2 and now we’re seeing full clears in a handful of hours. We’re looking to tackle both Black Temple and Hyjal Summit in a single evening within the next week or so.
Congratulations on downing Gorefiend! That’s a fun fight with an interesting mechanic.
