Tbh doesnt blizzard get payed enough to try out their own encounters anymore? Do they have to ruin the whole instance by putting the last boss of the next raid instance up for a test? It doesnt make any sense to me. It totally ruins the entire part of letting guilds compete for kills. Getting world firsts and what not.

I'm really surprised and a bit disappointed to see a final boss on the PTR.

Romours were that blizz had an internal raiding team to test the encounter back in the days. I guess after we saw lots of bugged bosses, they decided to test in public to find more bugs, expoits.
I dont like Bosses being spoiled on PTR. But whoever likes it, have fun!

Its a little strange even so. With the shear amount of ppl working for blizzard they should be able to internally get atleast 1 25 man raid. Be it at Off hours or what ever. It takes away lots of the fun doing the tests openly, especially Anub'arak being the last boss of the instance! :S

Looking at it from their point of view tho i guess they save lots and lots of money doing so.

They do have a internal team but letting the public test it adds a ton more variables that the internal team may not be able to cover. The instance is only 5 bosses, relatively short and more of a filler raid so I am not surprised they are testing it all.

PS: i hope the taiwan servers get the new patch the same day as US or EU so that they can actually compete with them and help end the US-EU rivalry

Why would we want to end the rivalry? competition is fun! You just want some non-EU guild to get more world firsts

its just that it gets annoying when you go to a forum about a world first and half of the posts are "EU SUCKS (insert very american picture here)" and then "HAHA US CANT DO ANYTHING RIGHT"

they are just at eachothers throats all the time

I'm really disappointed for the whole instance, I was hoping for Zul again, or at least an interesting raid. not a lame dungeon with 5 bosses
