    Uhh..... You may not have a good understanding of how MMORPGs work, or maybe you fail at reading comprehension. This isn't something that a person does once and never again. It needs to be repeatable, and as such it can't be so difficult that repeating it will be too much of a hassle for people.

    The group I was with, full of first timers, cleared it in a little over 110 of the 120 allotted minutes. That, to me, says the difficulty level is spot on. Notice I said difficulty level, not that I thought it was overly difficult.

    Done it 6 times now to get any of the WHM gear but after 6th run I settled for the Caster Leggins. (Which btw don't match anything and they show too much. Why can't we just get cute skirts ()
    Some runs were really smooth, not a single wipe, and some runs were horrible, wiped 3times at first and 3 times at the 2nd.
    Sure everyone's new and that's fine. But when after two wipes ppl still don't go to the water aoe when he uses ancient flare, even I get a little frustrated.

    I'd also like to add that I love the mechanics, they are really fun and a lot different from most of the other contents

    First boss definitely seemed like the most challenging. Liked the fact there were actually some T9 mechanics in there with the ice and fire.

    I'm totally calling it Circus Tower from now on as well. The name will totally apply within a month when the place is constantly trolled.

    Past it all 4 times I went in but used a secondary char there is no point going in with my main. It's confusing at first and when I went in my first time almost everyone was new. We wiped a few times and slowly picked up the mechanics and after that first run it just gets easier. It was nice having people being nice to each other for a change just like when the first CT started but in a few months it will be tard heaven again.

    My first run had many wipes, the only boss we didn't wipe was Amon, but it was really fun to learn by playing, sharing theories with other alliance members and trying stuff, of course this only works if people are cooperative, when people don't read chat or ignore what you say it will be a mess no matter what.

    Who's to say that the OP didn't run into a trolling group on his first run?

    :P

    Having an opinion does not make you right or wrong, it simply means you have an opinion. Don't get irritated when people don't agree.

    My wife went to CT2 before me, her group did excelent and they sort of one shotted the entire instance. When I finally managed to get in my group wiped and one of the tanks derpped so hard that I had to ask him to stop sabottaging us, he said "it's my first time! I dont have to know!" to which I replied "it's my first time too, but I did my part in the fight and yours...". It's just like people who don't pick up the kays for dungeon doors while demanding the tank to keep pulling or refuse to learn that red mark on the floor means bad: pure lazy.

    My first group with completely fresh new players (I ran the dungeon about 2-3 hours after patch came up) one shot all fights except the last. The mechanics in this fight are super super easy if you pay attention.

    The problem as other stated is many of the players come in here have no business entering a raid blind (regardless of how easy it is) because they don't have the mental\physical skills required to excel in a game such as this. It's pathetic really at how bad some players are. I understand its a new fight and we're only on day two. One or two wipes is acceptable. If you wipe more than 2x on any fight in "circus" tower, as some have started calling it, you might as well vote abandon because unless you want to carry players through the fight its going to take all day.
