I am looking for something in 15-30 minute range. I understand heroics will eventually end up there - they did in Wrath - by that point they will not be challenging any more.<br /><br />The random people issue is a bit more complicated and I admit it simplified it too much - to the point when it's not quite right anymore. Note that the perceived fail depends on your point of view - who considers HCs a bump on their way to VPs, will find their group seemingly failing more as their criteria for a successful group are much higher.Imakulatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18327043103775428011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-56475041631319874522011-10-24T10:13:12.230-05:002011-10-24T10:13:12.230-05:00Retro servers with new content.

I enjoyed watching other people progress and seeing how far behind the highest player I was. I ended up playing mainly with very decent players as we'd left the rubbish ones behind. People also tended to be courteous because the standard was so high they tended to respect each other.<br /><br />Possibly something like the EQ 1999 progression server would get me interested again.Stabshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08716211705647213383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-29756786101333813972011-10-24T06:39:03.541-05:002011-10-24T06:39:03.541-05:00Procedurally generated dungeons, raids, zones and ...Procedurally generated dungeons, raids, zones and scenarios.Ephemeronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16403198085556121203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-26270520130493860812011-10-24T06:18:08.029-05:002011-10-24T06:18:08.029-05:00Tough question.
