Funny story about Noth being the easiest boss ever: yesterday on a pug Naxx25 for Noth weekly, raid lead by people from Tabula Raza (Aerie Peak) suffered from the most spetacular raid wipe I ever seen since Festergut's Vile Gas on melee. The DOT resulting from the non-dispelled curse wiped everyone but 3 people in less than 2 seconds. He *is* deadly, and requires specific classes to be beaten (just like Razuvious 25 used to require 2 shadow priests at very least) - nothing I could do there as a holy paladin. Worst part of this wipe? - Pretty much almost all of the pugs had absolutely no idea on what happened; - Stupid mage 'leader' of the raid just told me to STFU, he had already done it several times without any decursing and it was not needed. I hold no grudge for the pugs ignorance. But I'm most definitely annoyed by the idiot that wants to make a fight 1000 times harder because he doesn't feel like clicking his decursive buttons. I wonder what he wanted? Get ranked in WoL for his Noth kill? LOL Nice recap on raid bosses, although I seriously seriously have to disagree with Mimiron being easier than the loot boat.

So as far as I'm concerned trying Morrowgar wearing 213 Ulduar gear would be pretty awful. Going back to Mimiron with 264 gear would be much much easier. The learning curve for Mimiron is higher, but I think part of why we make out Morrowgar is easy is simply because I don't know of any raid group that has attempted it until they are at the right gear level. The list was meant to map an ideal raid progression through the expansion for a new group of scrub 80s. Well I’m not disregarding gear in this list.

I mean surely Mimi is more demanding a fight than, say, Lord Marrowgar - although, of course, you need to be better geared for the latter. Or am I just missing the point?

But perhaps I'm in the minority. Faction Champions is actually a very easy fight as Shadow (my main spec) but often I was asked to help heal it (as Discipline) and as long as you don't start dispelling immediately I was found it pretty easy and, for that matter, very fun. If I had CC duties, perhaps I would have rated it as harder. Instructor Razuvious 25 man definitely had a sharp learning curve for Priests (it took me at least 1 wipe before the penny dropped) but for everyone else in the raid it was easy-peesy. So I took that into account and ranked it a bit lower. As for more lists? I want to do a Hard modes list of difficulty, but I haven't done them all :) I'll leave future lists up to other people I think.
