Normal dungeons are utterly trivial, especially now with TP removal

[Millybonk]

Here is the reality: normal dungeons were always trivial. TP removal didn't make it more trivial, because it already was trivial. Unless you're running with absolutely hopeless people, that is.

I know they were trivial, but you were still limited by the TP costs of your AoEs, thus smaller pulls in general, and even with the now removed TP-gain abilities you were still running dry rather quickly.

Now with a capable heal + tank you can pull everything up to the first artificial barrier in the dungeon, nuke everything down, repeat.

Not really. TP was never much of a limitation. If you spammed your AoE abilities constantly you would run of out TP after a while, true, but there was never much need to do that. Switching between AoE skills and single-target skills did not make the dungeons any harder than they are now, just made them take a few seconds longer to run.

In low-level dungeons the main limitation for really big pulls was the lack of low-level AoE attacks on many classes.

Pulling everything did not become easier due to TP removal - just a tiny bit quicker.

What, exactly is your point? Are you saying casters are now less desired in dungeons because melee/rpdps can AoE everything almost as well as the Mdps and are feeling less important or desired in already trivial content. This, when melee/ranged physical have been less desired for AoE since the beginning of this game? What exactly are you getting at? Is it really a valid complaint.
