I feel like this isn't going to be the expansion for me, because they only care about their damn encounters and nothing else.
This will only do for me if this allegedly 'less boring' is a change in the encounter design itself that makes those fun on reclears. Especially for healers.

Right now a high end encounter is actually really hard (for my skill level at least, and considering that I'm a PF raider atm), but as soon as I complete the fight, it goes from 'struggle bus' to 'snooze fest' on reclears. It doesn't help that we realistically can only complete 1 fight per week. We can't even help others without possibly messing up their loot table.
