Still the best leveling experience since WotLK.
>Heroic Dungeons having no purpose as Valor was removed and only recently readded as they knew they fucked up
That was stupid yeah but mythic dungeons are pretty good. Too bad that there weren't any new dungeons introduced with it so it only became a way to re-use all of the dungeons which weren't that many to begin with. And also came way too late into the game.
>Essentially 2 Raid Tiers
With BRF and HFC being one of the best raids since ICC.
>Removal of Scenarios
That really fucking stupid and confused the fuck out of me why I didn't get any scenarios at 100. I mean you would think blizzard woudn't drop the idea entirely.
>Removal of all dailies (have to grind creeps to make it up to exalted)
I kinda liked the idea of these new "daily zones" because I can choose the way how to do they daily. Dailys got boring really fast.
>Frostfire ridge/Shadowmoon Valley have no quests for opposing faction
I don't know this hasn't bothered me at all.
>Resource Professions (mining/herbalism) rendered useless
You won't need it for your other professions but they are pretty good for making money.
>World Bosses made redundant (shared loot which is terrible, no tier pieces, no cool mount chance, literally no reason to do them)
Rukh'mar has a mount and Kazzak has some good items.
Drov and Tarlna were pretty useless though.
>No new battlegrounds
Thank good, most of the newer battlegrounds are so fucking aweful that I hope to get into the old ones anyway.
And Ashran is pretty cool when PvP actually happens, which is rare because of fucking faction balance issues.
>Ridiculous ending involving Grom forgiving you, despite you killing all of his friends and being the sole reason for causing Gul'dan to take over and ruin the land

First you complain about dailies

He knows what will happen if he decides to be our enemy, also lets be fair it's us the player who are the cause for Gul'dan taking over and ruin Tanaan.

What was he going to get killed then? And he wasn't a slave, he was the Iron Horde overseer over the ogres.

They are hardly going to start fighting each other right after they defated Archimonde, these things need a little bit of time before they happen.

Why not just send a bronze dragonflight and have them disguise as a brown orc?

It's faster to call the whole thing a mistake and list the things WoD did right. The raids themselves were legit, if only 2 fucking tiers. Leveling to 100 for the first time wasn't so bad, although it wasn't great I wouldn't call it a mistake. New models were nice but supposed to be in pandaland. Mythic dungeons and timewalking was cool. All in all 2/10 terrible expansion. Contender for worst expac with Catalclysm.

Well, without heirlooms road from 90 to 100 ends in the nagrand. Still leveling this xpac was made fun and linear questline doesnt bother me anyway
>Heroic Dungeons having no purpose as Valor was removed and only recently readded as they knew they fucked up
>Essentially 2 Raid Tiers
HFC and BRF is pretty ok, but yes, still BRF should be veible on launch with HM and BRF in conent patch. Not as last raid tier.
>Removal of Scenarios
Ok
>Removal of all dailies (have to grind creeps to make it up to exalted)
Well the problem is people cry because they need to grind mobs to get rep. Back in day they raged because of dailes. You poeple cannot be satisfied. Even with mob grind its still less time overall than in other MMO. (try gridning rep with tbc or vanillia factions)
>Frostfire ridge/Shadowmoon Valley have no quests for opposing faction
No problem there
>Resource Professions (mining/herbalism) rendered useless
Ok
>World Bosses made redundant (shared loot which is terrible, no tier pieces, no cool mount chance, literally no reason to do them)
First two was relevant before taanan and HFC. Now you need this two to get achiev. Rukmar drops mount and Kaazak is weekly free felblight farm with some nice item for alts. Best crafted weapon have 705ilvl. Upgraded with valor gives you 715ilvl weapon/armor bested only by mythic gear

It wouldn't have made sense if they were playable, since WoD was just a trip through time anyway - it's not like anything we did all expansion has anything to do with the main timeline, and Blizz has been very upfront about that.

I do really want playable arakkoa. I would literally pay blizz the 20$ a character for a race change if they made arakkoas playable.

You made the already fucked ones less fucked up and the normal ones all died in a five man with a grand total of I think five buildings worth of a "civilization" and the rest of the unfucked ones were comprised of maybe fifteen guys all involved with just selling apexis items.

You didn't save shit. I'd argue that the Arakkoa in BC were better off because despite being all evil assholes they were evil assholes with homes as opposed to living in a single village surrounded by the burnt bodies of their families.
>>
>>319281451
That was already explained in WoD. Kairozdormu realized the only way to fight the Legion was to amass an army from various timelines, so he sent Garrosh to help his father create a massive army in AU past Draenor.

I feel like wod was shit because the majority of blizzard were working on getting overwatch out.

>>319281980
The Arakkoa in WoD had a very corrupt religious society along with a terrible cast system. Having it torn down is nothing but good
>>
>>319281981

The main problem is that Kairozdormu also intended to use this "infinite" army to rule everything. Good thing that Garrosh snapped his neck.
>>
>>319281981
No both Wrathion and Kairozdormu were on the ground floor of sending Garrosh back to do exactly that as of warcrimes. We already knew why Garrosh was being sent back in time. Kairoz didn't "realize" this was the solution he turned into a giant asshole who wanted an orc army as soon as the went to Draenor and then Garrosh just ignored both Wrathion's original goal and Kairoz's new goal and fucked off to his new third goal of making the Iron Horde to get revenge.

Wrathion wanted an orc army to stop the Legion

Kairoz wanted an orc army because all dragons are assholes

Garrosh wanted an orc army to let his dad be hitler and kill the kids who bullied him

The in-game world doesn't actually represent what it actually is.
See official art, descriptions in the novels or the movie itself. Stormwind is fucking HUGE. Even Warcraft III had bigger cities.
>>
>>319282402
There's literally no reason why the Iron Horde should have been able to build a portal to OUR universe and that's where the problem actually arises.

It's such a plot hole that makes no sense and makes Wrathion an even bigger idiot than he is.

They shouldn't have access to space time magic like that. It didn't matter that Garrosh was going to turn all orcs into a giant army of assholes since they could have fucked up alt Draenor/Azeroth as much as they wanted and then once the Legion invades Kairoz could have just did some time bullshit and sent an entire army of fel magic hating assholes at the Legion to grind them down.

It's the fact that suddenly they have the ability to invade our Azeroth (when they shouldn't) that fucks over the plan. Imagine sending a monkey to africa to teach all monkeys to use guns with the intention of releasing them ISIS but wow suddenly the monkeys know how to build battleships and are invading America.

>>319282790
>The in-game world doesn't actually represent what it actually is.

But it's still representative of SOMETHING being there. A "village" comprised of three houses has a population of 10,000 but that still doesn't mean it's bigger than Stormwind because despite the discrepancies in "lore size" at least in the game settlements are still smaller or bigger in relation to each other.

The literally one village the arakkoa in WoD might hold thousands of bird men and women but compared to the settlements of them in BC their numbers are still clearly smaller. The order of the awakened might number in the hundreds but still less compared to the neutral arakkoa quest givers and NPCs just sort of hanging about.
>>
>>319283093
Didn't they have other high arakkoa settlements? For all we know there could be dozens of high arakkoa nest cities on the myriad of mountains that make the >500km2 of Spires of Arak, but they're represented in-game by the Skyreach and a couple of other tiny settlements.
>>

>most people in this thread saying the questing was a high point of wod.
The questing was a boring linear single player experience with way too much phasing. It was a fucking waste of resources. the questing to max level should be like 20% of the expansion pack not the 80% that it always is. it's stupid that the thing that the majority of the devs efforts goes into is the thing that most people try to skip over as fast as possible and never do again. Now with flying and potions you can get from 90-100 in 3 hours by just flying around collecting treasures, nobody wants to do those quests.
>>
>>319283293
>Didn't they have other high arakkoa settlements?

I don't think so though. I completely understand you but at the same time outside of Skyreach I don't think any of the mountains in spires actually have anything on them and not even a single platform that represents a town or anything just nothing.

Which again the point being that it's not an issue of ingame size compared to lore size. It's an issue of ingame size compared to other ingame sizes which should at least make sense lorewise.
>>
>>319283478

Making sense out of their lore was a very low priority, or did you forget that the pools of Sethe's blood are easily a mile away from Skyreach despite constantly having arakkoa being cast into them?

I know the expansion is about going to draenor, but I would have liked to see way more of the iron horde conflict spilling into azeroth.

instead the very first segment of the expansion is you kicking them the fuck back through the portal, following them in and then kicking their asses some more. the iron horde never feels like even a slight threat at any point.
>>
>>319283931
The new Blackrock dungeon ;)
>>
We're not the reason Gul'dan succeeded, the weakness of the Iron Horde is. If they didn't get their asses beat then Gul'dan would've been fucked, they should have been stronger. Fun fact, this is how they would have viewed it, too, because they're a proud, stupid, violent race that blames weakness before blaming strength. You don't go "if you didn't kick my ass, I wouldn't be losing", that would just sound stupid.

Are you fucking joking? Grom forgives US?! He's the one who should be executed for all the crimes commited against draenei and other denizens of Draenor. Not to mention him attacking fucking Azeroth.

He should've been put down like the rabid dog he is.

this, are you retarded OP?

Most of the warlords who did awful things against the draenei are already dead, and his attack on Azeroth is a big "wow it's fucking nothing".

Also Garrosh is the real reason everything happened.

>>319284735
So what? Grom was the leader of the Iron Horde. He was the one giving the orders till Gul'dan took over.

Nah, the only reinforcements path was the dark portal.
Mage portals and small portals in general are not canon in lore, anon.
They're just a gameplay feature.
>>
>>319285676
What about Khadgar bringing fucking everyone to Draenor through portals?
>>
>>319285676
>They're just a gameplay feature.

Remember when Khadgar just portals out all your forces into your garrison and that is very much a thing that is real?
>>
>>319285676
Portals are very much canon, during Cataclysm we saw Garrosh use portals to get to Silverpine in a short amount of time.

The only reason we were able to set up a Garrison was because of a mage portal
>>
The issue was simply that they made the expansion hinge on two features that didnt work out at all.

Everything was built around Ashran and Garrisons. Those turned out shitty and unfinished so the whole expansion suffered from it.

Just think about it. Ashran couldve been like five seperate BGs easily.
>>
>>319285761
>>319285763
Khagdar is a fucking archmage, anons.
Read the books, portals are not canon in the way you think they are.

I'm still going through my weekly garrison quest-chains to get the rest of the plot. Which, by the way, I think is super fucking gay that you have to do weird weekly quest chains to see the progression from Garrosh dieing -> Tanaan getting fucked and Grom not being the main badguy anymore.

That said- Does it ever get explained why the alliance/Draenai/frost wolves are suddenly Ok with grom? Did he have a justifiable reason for genociding every non-orc on draenai including the peaceful draenai?

I get the Draenai were ivory tower pricks that lived in idealic and mostly hidden settlements while orcs had to struggle to survive, but I don't see how that justifies them getting exterminated by the orcs.

TLDR : Why does Grom have to forgive everyone for Tanaan when Grom did 100x worse shit that doesn't even get brought up anymore after he gets kidnapped.

In the original timeline the Draenei were exterminated by the demon-blood fueled orcs.
In the alternate one, Grom went hippity faggoty and decided to conquer all of Draenor for himself and the orc masterrace because we wun't be slavz n shieet

Yes, undead are generally immune to any disease which is exactly why the Forsaken spent years to develop a plague that would kill the unliving shit out of absolutely everything to use against the Scourge.

Portals are canon in WoD. In all other expaniosn are not.

Its explained that world linked once with another stay linked forever. There's no portal to outland but there's many portal to alternate draenor, because main dark portal got #rekt with about 10-15 people stuck. And then suddenly you see fucking outposts full of npc in every zone.

> Varian started the war
For fuck sake, ally shillers are just stupid as horde one.
Wotlk - who ombed wrathgate? Ally or undead being part of horde? I remind you that player actually helps in developing weapon used at wrathgate.
Then Varian invades undercity only for being teleported back by Jaina "I love sucking thrall cock" Proudmoore
Now we got cataclysm. Sure there's some small alliance bases being just questing zone for horde players. But remember who bombed Theramore full of civilians?
Remember who started shit in dalaran and stole the bell?
And that evil war starting Varian everytime when he can get job done have himself pushed back because Jaina/Anduin
From wotlk to MOP you had a clear warmonger portraied as garrosh. Until you get actual proof with level of "rekting theramore" dont pull that shit nonsense.

And now Grom apologist idiots. Inspired by his son HE (not another one) gave order to:
- invade Azeroth because "WE ARE NOT SLAVES WE ARE CONQUERORS".
- anihilate nethergarde/that horde setlement
- kill/rape/maim draeneni just like hord ein main timeline
- force nehr'zul to do something good for iron horde or his clan will get rekt. Pushed to the wall nehr'zul used void powers and changed fucking naaru to void god. Also killing Yriel sister in proces.
ANt that's nor Garrosh or another warlord. Its Grom giving orders himself for fuck sake. He's leader of iron horde and he's take main responsiblity for everything. Just like hitler.

And after that we got "dindu noffin". Fuckton of people from blasted land, draenei and heroes lost at dark portla cry for revenge

Oh, nice that i just levelen in north to get insight. Grizzly hiils with "lol alliance scum kill them" and there's only undead force.
After this we got Angmar hammer base and thatone near Naxxramas. They are teeling you directly that developing plague will "win any war and kill everyone". And they're testing it on scarlet crusaders and undead army near naxxaramas in wintergarde. AFter this players jumps to Angamr hammer with undead and other horde characters. Orc commander before sending you to assist Saurfang in wrathgate, tells you directly that horde gets help from taunka and wont use that plague shits because they wont change to scourge v 2.0
And in cata undead still works on plague even when orc supersvisor reminds them of consequences (worgen starting area and undead starting area)
>But remember who bombed Theramore full of civilians?

He still FUCKING NUKED WHOLE CITY. That ONE FUCKING CITY being neutral to horde and governed by Jaina - propably the best friendly to horde ally character until she went mad because suddenly Garrosh deluded himself that theramore support alliance attack on him and bombs the fuck out.

Just having this vision, calling Varian responsible for starting war is just fucking plain stupid. And im telling you it as horde fanboy

WoD starting zone - fuckton of draenei prisoners

Taana is just fel horde and there's no draenei presence in Frostfire ridge, arrakoa and nagrand
>>
>>319288585
They went rouge during the wrathgate, around the moment they plagued their Allies and enemies. And yelling
>Death to the scourge and death to the living
Also made them rouge.

Ok let me word it differently then, they never said that they were going to use the plague to bomb their alliances. And yes the Forsaken violation the Gévina convention is something that the Horde should do more about.

>being neutral to horde
They stopped being neutral the moment they allowed alliance military to use their docks to station troops and supplies. Or how did you think that the Alliance put up human forts in the barrens?
>>
>>319288046
>the wrathgate
Sure, lets conveniently forget that throughout the foorsaken leveling up quests you're constantly destroying human settlements and taking live prisoners to commit war crimes /horrific torture against.

Let's also forget that these same war crimes culminated in the creation of literal mustard gas which is a crime according to Geneva convention.

Let's also forget everyone at UC was totally a-ok with using gas upon 'all the living(end quote)'.

Let's also forget the amount of alliance heroes who got gasses that day . and sylvanas' lack of leadership.


Let's also forget that at the second scourge gate, alliance gets AMBUSHED by a horde scouting party while engaged against the scourge. Effectively turning an entire battalion into ghouls and making the lich king stronger.

Let's forget all about that, but let me remind you how in a matter of weeks, the alliance loses 2 strike battalions , a shit ton of soldiers turn undead and a lot of tanks . the first time because some horde can't hold off their hatred for the living enough, so they join an agent of the legion to while out the living, and the second time, because while even while Alliance looked away the first time, orcs are huge bloodthirsty dindus who can't avoid ambushing alliance fighters and must 'slaughter them all in glorious combat' . in fact, they even laugh at the "cowardly cries and lamments of those punny alliance soldiers".

Did you even do the icecrown quests, or are you a cata/mop baby?

>theramore was evacuated

Oh, right! That totally makes it okay!

Let's nuke orgrimmar and thunderbluff after we allow the cities time to evacuate! Surely, soldiers lives are worthless, so even tho you're losing a city, you don't lose much and all can be forgiven .

Sure they went rogue. With the lead of damn near second in command Grand Apothecary Putress. They went rogue AFTER wrath gate. To this point they were working as horde part. There is no alliance counterpart that go rogue and fucks both ally/horde in one place killing two best chacters (Saurfang son and Bolvar aka "regent king of Stormwind in vaniila and TBC")

Theramor was never used as alliance staging area. Jaina clearly said so(aka "Theramore is neutral state and will never join any horde-allaince conflict). Its only Garrosh delusion. That 2 ally bases are there from vanillia (one being relocated in Durotar and second in ruins). Maybe third are that faction near thunder bluff gate and thats maybe only one instance when alliane troops actually destroyed a settlement.

Get some timeline and chech the facts - neraly 4/5 of alliance aciotns are amde in resposne to horde actions. And because of Garrosh development horde is seen as warmorgering (we got 2 xpack with this). Varian is just big bad ally daddy who only shouts "DONT DO A THING OR I WILL REKT YOU" and in the end Jaina/Anduins tells him to calm the fuck down and uphold the honor

Talador fo christ sake. Horde dindu noffin wrong because there's legion fucking up Auchindoun and Shattrah? Yes, screw that other 4 settlements burnt down and fucked up by iron horde. And fuck that Durotan want to stop doomhammer from obliterating another draenei settlement because they fucked up already 3 of them and started assault on Shattrah port.
And shadowmoon "give iron hode weapon to anihilate enemes or we will anihilate you".

Kid, please, stop. You justify killing because they could kill 2 milions but killed "just" one million. Its still a fucking genocide and unjust murder

As for Theramore
>Since Warchief Garrosh wants to defeat the night elves and conquer the whole of Kalimdor under the banner of the Horde, offensives into the Southern Barrens have been sent in response and secured territory once belonging to the Horde for Varian and his allies. The humans of Theramore have sent their army and tried to establish a military line between night elf territory and Theramore.[11] Theramore had a highway constructed that connects Theramore to Dustwallow Marsh; allowing the Alliance to move more quickly and send supplies and troops from Theramore to Alliance military bases in the Southern Barrens. After the Horde's surprise invasion of Ashenvale, Alliance forces streamed out of Theramore to attack the Barrens

Oh for fuck sake are you being dumb on purpose? How does an invasion in Ashenvale effect Theramore? Did you yourself not say that Jaina did not want to take any side in an alliance Horde conflict?

If the Horde invades Alliance land to the north and the "neutral " faction to the south responds by invading their land that they are no longer neutral on the conflict but has sided with the Alliance.

And again Horde Alliance war had already started by that point.

Yes she did plaguebomb Gilneas. But Gilneas was not their alliances,

She didn't betray the alliance/horde -de facto- but she did create a mustard gas which is capable of eradicating all of the living. It's hard to defend sylvannas claiming she's just too incompetent to know what her own servants have been doing for vanilla and 2 expacs. It's yet another "no homo" argument. Fact of the matter is the forsaken were claiming "death to the living since forsaken lvl 10 quests. That's a universal declaration of war , à la Hitler.

>that was not the iron horse!
Fucking retard. Killing off 1 million draenei is not okay just because they could have killed 2 million. That's a " but the balls didn't touch" argument.

>Varian did a declaration of war
So let me guess. You're saying that all the horse betrayals up to that point that the alliance always looked past, they weren't war declarations because the alliance never took them up?

And now, because the Horde took up the first provocation to go into war and was the first and ONLY FACTION TO ACTUALLY ACT ON IT, its suddenly the alliance's fault?

Sure warmorgering, because he went to undercity with army to get putress(Varimathias) to justice and mad because he lost his friend and his son advisor when he was absent.

Off the top of my head?

south shore and ashenvale.


In the south shore area, you get to murder farmers and capture them for torture and helping develop mustard gas (used at wrath gate).

Remember how when landing at the howling fjord , the forsaken bomb the shit out of an alliance encampment with mustard gas and slaugther everyone who survives the wreckage of the ships?

How fucking retarded are you? The very first questing area for the Horde on northrend is all about breaking the truce and killing off an entire human basebfor no reason other than "they are too close and we want more terrain for the Horde".


Fact of the matter is the alliance receives numerous declarations of war throughout the game. Varian REACTING to all of this shit piled up on wrath game is not a declaration of war. It's yet another response to war crimes such as attacking your forces under truce.


Kill yourself.

In vanilla it felt like you had choices in the end-game but in WoD you just rush to max, raid a bit then get burnt out whole xpac.

He didn't even have any siege weapons

There are troll siege weapons around the area and Nazgrim even says "You don't have any siege weapons left!"

>>319294020
The Iron Juggernaught was an amazing piece of goblin technology.

And the easiest boss in the raid. Meanwhile, Lor'themar and Sylvanas took down the entire Dragonmaw army and a ginormous proto drake with minimal losses, using strategy instead of sending everything into a fucking meatgrinder.

Some of the Portals are cannon.
In WoD only the Everbloom dungeon portal from Stormwind into Grogrond made by the Kirin Tor and Khadgar making a portal in the initial questing to bring in the Alliance/Horde architects, some supplies and builders along with brining Varian/Vol'jin in 6.2.
Khadgar is a fucking based archmage, there is a reason they retconned Med'an out and gave him Atiesh. Even without it he is fucking smart and skilled, but with it he can be even more.

I also loved how they managed to sucessfully portray him as a kind of a cooky grandpa. If you poke him enough times, he'll joke with you and make a silver coin appear behind your ear.

Other than that, all other portals in WoD are for gameplay necessity and not lore cannon. About 1/3rd of the time I use a flight path into Stormshield I see several Alliance footman wanting the Ashran/Iron Horde fuckery to end fast because they haven't "seen their family in months".
Imagine the rage people would have if the only way out of AU Draenor was trough a previously set HS or trough Mage players help.


Regarding Outland, their Dark Portal is not now directly connected to ours but the path for the link still exists since it was linked in the First War. It is lore cannon that powerfull mage can still make temporary small portals to Outland, but not anything major. That is how in MoP Warlocks managed to travel to the Black Temple in the green fire questline.

Considering the story of WoD, I kind of wonder if the original intent was for Legion to directly follow MoP but then for whatever reason they had to do another expansion in-between.
>>
>>319297008
They did confirm that during MoP they where developing both and took them a while to decide wich one to have 1st. They put WoD 1st and crammed what they could make from 5.1 up to the launch of WoD.
Legion got the majority of the work and WoD was truly made to be a filler expac. With the amount of scenarios, quests and shit in legion so far no wonder they needed a lot of time to make shit (it's blizzard after all).

Proof comes that a datamined Warlockarea map from 5.2 is the same map file that is used now for the Warlock class hall, confirming that have been working on Legion since shortly after the MoP launch.

Or maybe they just recycled some green fire quest shit for this.

The green fire quest line was supposed to be much longer after all.
>>
>>319281489

options you dumb piece of shit. Leave dailies for those who like them, and add grinding for those who don't.
>>
>>319297416

Considering that was the same patch as the green fire questline, I think it's more likely that that place was originally going to be used for that, cut, and re-used as the lock class hall. It'd be a little weird if they were working on the expansion for two and a half years and *that* was the only resource from it that accidentally slipped into the live files.

Highmaul and BRF are the same raid tier. Highmaul does not drop set pieces at all, only BRF, because it is the 2nd part of the tier (despite the gear iLVL difference wich was added as a soft nerf).
HFC is the second raid tier of WoD.

Scenarios as you know them from MoP are gone. They are used for specific questing moments like the Assault on Grommash'ar in Nagrand, the battle of the harbor in Shattrath.

Sha'tari defense is a worse grind than fucking Shaohao. Steamwheedle is Nagrand rare farming (this I found interesting and somewhat acceptable). Only in 6.2 did they had daily rep quests. They have said time and again that the WoD launch reps where an aftertought and added on a rush very late into development since they didn't plan to have any reps at all since everybody and their mother complained about the amount of dailies in MoP.

You get some quests if you are Alliance to goto Frostfire Ridge, but it is in no way intended to be a full question zone for the opposing faction.

Herbs and mining nodes are literally spawning in your garrison after every daily restart. I haven't picked herbs in WoD since I finished powerleveling Herbalism.

The gorgrond world bosses share the same shity iLVL loot (kill one and you can't get loot from the other). Rhukmar at least has a mount and Kazzak drops felblights & ilvl 705 catchup off-pieces.
The MoP world bosses had far more shit to get from them, all of them dropped lower iLVL set pieces, off pieces of decent iLVL and mounts.

And Varian did so much more

At least he's alive and will be back to save the day.

No they aren't, i have literally just queued for a Colosseum scenario.

Stop talking out your ass.
>>
>>319302275
That's the only one and it's time to the Gladiator's Sanctum (PvP garrison building). Queueable scenarios are gone except for that single one. The rest is integrated into leveling and questing, the same thing is happening in Legion.

>>319302491
>THEY ARE COMPLETELY GONE!!

>>
>>319302645
Having a single scenario that you can queue for isn't a victory. You are still celebrating lost content.

So you say it is ok to have a single scenario, when there were at least 6 previously?

>3 of which are rehashes

Keep in mind manydunge vanilla dungeons are listed as one when actually it's multiple instances (Dire Mauls 3 instances listed as one) or a dungeon complex so huge it could realistically be split up into 2-3 (BRD)
