I'm getting real tired of people assuming CIS is a programming major, when it's far from.
hmm i do that to my friend all the time, i wonder how much he hates it...
on another note, i dunno if you guys are on the ptr as well or following updates about it, but I did the second new heroic last night, well of eternity i believe it is called, and i thought it was great. You are guided through the dungeon by Illidan and he occasionally will give you a buff or stealth to move through the instance. Its a 3 boss dungeon without a ton of trash so its a really nice change from how long zg/za can take. The first boss is kinda interesting as he has a transition phase in which you go invisible and he sends out eyes to search for you. There are a few pillars you can use to hide from the eyes. If you are spotted by the eye the boss will stun that player for 8 seconds. However if all 5 people hide for 40 seconds, you get some huge buff or something that basically ends the fight. It seems pretty hard to actually hide for that long due to how many eyes there are. Second boss is fighting 8 mages, two at a time. Lots of AoE and one party member will get mind controlled every so often. Not too hard of a fight, bit annoying to tank since they are casters and kinda spread out when the spawn. Last boss was kinda cool, there are two bosses actually, the first guy is just tank and spank with lots of fire you have to dodge, just like the first boss in BH. After you kill him you fight some adds for a bit, watch out for the hellfire here, it caught us off guard and we almost wiped. After you kill the adds you get a huge damage buff to kill the second boss who has health similar to a 10man raid boss i believe. It was just attack the boss, an npc tanks for you so the healer and tank are just dps for this part. Nice healing trinket dropped and a decent 2h mace. You get a quest to complete the third heroic which rewards some nice plate dps boots and a few other things i can remember. Over all a very fun heroic, could use some tweaking on difficulty i think, a little too easy other than the hide and seek mechanic on the first boss, but maybe we were just doing that part wrong.
