Complicated fight without wow gold player input from PTR testing.
No kidding. Speaking from experience, Blizzard did a heck of a job balancing an incredibly difficult and complicated fight without wow gold player input from PTR testing.I can't speak for the difficulty of the heroic version of The Lich King, but you've gotta assume that Blizzard wants that fight to be a major roadblock for even the strongest guilds. It says a lot when not a single guild in the world has been able to take down The Lich King even on 10 player heroic difficulty after two weeks. It has been a while since that happened. If memory serves the longest standing boss this expansion was Algalon the Observer, and that fight was not only extremely time consuming to unlock -- it also had a 1 hour time limitation.This jives with the early news we've had about the new Ruby Sanctum instance. It'll come as somewhat of a surprise if the loot from the new boss is really on par with the ilvl 284 gear that can be obtained from The Lich King's heroic version. I suppose it isn't that unreasonable since this instance will probably have to tide over the raiders that do manage to master Icecrown Citadel on heroic difficulty.This seems to reinforce the idea that the new encounter will be similar to how Sartharion was back when the highest tier of raiding was Naxxramas; some high level off-set pieces that aren't absolutely necessary but are well worth the effort.The changes made to resilence were creating a PvP atmosphere where some healers seemed nearly impossible to kill.
