Turn 9 downed in less than one month after release

Assuming others can follow in their footsteps.

It's inevitable that those threads will crop up anyway, SE just aren't releasing content fast enough.

i think 2.2 has a considerable amnt of things to do so i dont think it has anything to do with lack of content.
the thing is that that group plays this game for hours on end, 7 days a week and learned
the ropes quicker than the usual player. so they have wayyy more time on their hands than others do.
the only time you will see an influx of clearers is if they release a video...which i dont think they should
so others can learn by themselves and as a team. i never watch videos on anything.

BG is playing smart. They're not going to release their video until a few more top notch FC's clear T9 so people won't copy their strategy.

Everything is straight forward after others have already beat it and released guides.

I have hardcore progression raiding experience in other games.

The mechanics are braindead obvious with convenient tooltips.

48 hours for T6, 12 in-game hours, max.
24 hours for T7, 8 in-game hours, max.
24 hours for T8, same 8 in-game, max.


The only significant humps for any high end progression group are "mystery mechanics" that have sketchy / no telegraphing and behave in strange/counterintuitive ways.

Too much time on their hands :l

Name one form of entertainment (or better yet, consumable media) that can release content faster than it can be consumed...

PvP of any form. MMOs, chess, checkers, tic-tac-toe, chinese chess/checkers, padu, poker.

All of those things can be consumed much faster than the development time to create or implement them.

Edit: Or are you referring to an actual board version of chess/checkers? Those I will concede. As well as the chinese versions, and poker, and padu. But if you are meaning a digital version, my point still stands.

Not sure what to think about this. On one hand, BG is an amazing group (and if I remember correctly, the only group to down Twintania before Twister nerfs). On the other, we're going to have a lot of nothing-to-do-endgame threads cropping up soon. >.>

Yeah, well I don't see this happening anytime soon as there are still plenty of people stuck on T5.

So because the best guild in the entire world beat it that makes it too easy?

Kind of disappointed that this was finished with a group that couldn't have an average iLevel more than 95

Proof that average ilvl is not everything.

THIS.

Didnt BG down t5 in mostly Darklight?
