Who else is in?

Heroics are a complete and udder joke in WotLK.

An udder is where a cow's milk comes from. The word you're looking for is "utter".

I don't see how attunements would fix anything. They need to make the content harder. I'm fine with it taking less than an hour to do a dungeon, but I'm not fine with it requiring no skill to do it.

Here is how it will fix anything.

Back at 70 on my hunter I needed the Sonic Spear from Murmur. So I got me a damn good group, everyone was in tier 4 and 5 and we were blowing through it. We get to Murmur and things just stop. Not a single idiot I was grouped with had any knowledge of Murmur and we werent able to defeat him... Player sin tier 4 and 5 shouldn't have any trouble with Murmur, it is one of the easiest fights. None of them had to go through the attunement which required you to kill Murmur.

Having attunements won't stop idiots from getting into end game raiding, it will just slow it down.

Well I understand all of that, but the problem right now isn't that there are idiots in raids. The problem is that the raids are stupidly easy. Adding attunements isn't going to fix that.

Yea, that is true.. the difficulty WotLK shows is pathetic. GI had an article that said WotLK is definetly aimed towards the casual gamer. People in my guild have stated that Ulduar (sp) will be of the SWP (Sunwell Portal) difficulty. Let's hope to see raids that take a few months to clear, as opposed to a few hours.

Like I said above, I like that the game is aimed at casual players (because most of the players are casual players.) However, "aiming at casuals" means to shorten dungeons, get rid of annoying and time consuming rep grinds, and add some fun and challenge to the game. They can make the dungeons and raids shorter and more casual accessable without making them stupidly easy. I remember the Burning Crusade dungeons being pretty darn difficult when the last expansion came out. They should just do the same thing now, but shorten things a bit.

I also think they should leave some of the "hardcore" stuff in the game. That's part of what an MMORPG is about. This is why I was originally excited for their new raiding system, having all raids be 10 man or 25 man, rather than just having entry level raids as 10 man and all of the others as 25 man. This seemed like the perfect system to allow casuals to get a taste of raids. However, when it's all dumbed down, it's just not fun anymore.

tl;dr, Blizzard dropped the ball again.
