I went there all the time to level in the late 40/early 50 range iirc. I think it was split into upper and lower sections but I haven't played WoW in 6 years or something.

Some of the areas were behind a locked door, where one would need either to complete a quest inside the same dungeon to get it or have a Rogue to pick the lock. You had to be dead to get the quest, which was pretty cool. Can't remember if the loot was any good, except for a couple of pieces, before the vanilla loot revamp. Think all INT on caster gear replaced with PIE tier of bad, but the itemisation in general is another story.

I hope I never see anything like that again.

Why is being able to pick and choose which bosses to kill a bad thing? It gave more choices, you didn't have to clear BRD 100%.

Oh, you mean those great 1.0 dungeons where the goal was to run straight to the boss fighting as little as possible, and if you aren't a bard then you aren't allowed in?

Right, those were the days... >.>

Dont reminisce about older versions/games...It upsets the herd. You dont want a stampede.

I've done 5CSR in every dungeon in 1.0 and they were absolutely fun to do. Could not stand doing them 1000 times for the 1% drop rate of DL gear but Mnk burns on Miser were awesome.

perhaps they should transform these dungeon into coil. T3 should be something like 1.0 dungeon, an open world dungeon require you to clear weekly before gaining access to t4 and t5.
