It’s Happening: The return of TBC and Wrath DUNGEONS!

Are you a big turbonerdy nostalgia nut like me?  Miss the good ol’ dungeons of TBC and WotLK?

HAS BLIZZARD GOT A PRESENT FOR YOU

DO YOU GUYS SEE THIS

NOW YOU CAN GO BACK AND DO THEM ALL WITHOUT NEEDING AN ALT

Ahem.  Sorry.  Got a little excited there for a minute.

To be fair this entire system isn’t without what I think could possibly be issues:

First of all, apparently this system only exists during “holiday weekends”, like the old Call to Arms PvP quests.  Why?  I don’t know.  Maybe because they want it to be a special thing?  Either way I want my retro dungeons ALL THE TIME, Blizz!

Second, I hope the above list isn’t ALL the dungeons we’re getting.  Basically all of my favorite retro dungeons are missing.  Chief among these are:

  • Mech
  • Underbog
  • Ramparts
  • Sethekk
  • Shadow Labs (yes I went there)
  • Violet Hold
  • Drak’theron
  • Utgarde Keep
  • Culling of Strat

So yeah.  Don’t stop with the ones you’re testing, Blizzard!

Thirdly, I hope they don’t just scale down gear and leave it at that.  Due to the many and often very drastic class mechanics changes that have occurred since TBC and WotLK, I feel like doing that would still overpower most of these instances at level.  Tune them to how they were when they were Heroics, Blizz.  Yes, even Shadow Labs.

But yeah, other than that?

  1. I can see why some of your choices were left out, to be honest. Violet hold is just a rehash of Black Morass. And Culling of Stratholme takes forever to get going.

    I’ve just levelled my monk through BC and WoTLK. The one time Strat popped in LFG, it took forever to get through as people dropped left, right and centre. It’s just not got enough instant gratification for today’s players.

  2. We are on a strict timetable, you shall not interfere! Oh wait, that one is from Mechanar 🙁

    I want to see the Oculus timewalked, just to see the nerd rage about having to use dragons in it.

  3. May I just be the first to say “SQUEEEEEEEEEEEE!”

    Very curious how the gear scaling will work. Will we end up with current dungeon level blues (i630) or gear equal to yourcurrentaverage ilevel (i767) for me?
