Finally, some new content. As with Naxxramas almost two years ago, it's exciting to see Blizzard demonstrating a real understanding of the limits of high-end raiders, along with a willingness to push players to those limits. I suspect that what we've seen so far is just the beginning, and the steady progression and variety moving from Kalecgos to Brutallus to Felmyst bodes well for what is less well-known ahead. Looking forward to it.
Speaking of tightly-tuned fights, allow me to add my voice to the chorus asking for Brutallus to remain as he now stands. He is the essence of a "gear check" and changing him even a little would defeat the purpose of the fight. We did him with a completely ordinary raid composition (no stacking -- exactly the same sort of raid makeup we've routinely taken through BT and other zones), and in fact the only real difference between our series of single-digit wipes yesterday and our ten-seconds-before-berserk kill tonight was that we'd been trying to "stack" yesterday instead of running with a more natural setup to which we've been accustomed for a year now. Congrats and thanks to our hunters for defying the huntard reputation that plagues the class, our healers for a fantastic job on a stressful fight, and all the rest.

Obviously we killed Kalecgos on Tuesday too but I think everyone can live without seeing a screenshot of us standing around in an empty plaza.
