Garrosh's effective total HP across all phases was about 3.77 billion (37.7億) on 25 player heroic difficulty.
    Okay, so it does seem similar to WoW's problems, and Yoshi has been known of taking solutions from WoW before.

    So from whatever has happened in WoW already, what should FFXIV expect? What should we be prepared for, is it all bad news? Is there anything to learn?

    WoW has tried it twice now and both times have gone really bad and they had to spend months re-doing it. They have never got it right yet.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
