W00T... Just healed Heroic Deadmines :-)
|
I know to most of you this is probably not really an acheivement... but 2nd time in there, first time healing it, I am still quite poorly geared and the group was not awesomely decked out (in fact, tank was a druid in mostly non-heroic gear) - most things went smoothly...
I know its not something people usually shout about, but my main reason for posting was to see where Deadmines fits in respect to other Heroic dungeons, specifically in terms of healing intensity.
My last experience was in GB and I felt very subpar when I got nailed on 2nd boss... too much healing for my mana/regen and I had to leave instance.... This time, we had a few stops between trash but I didn't really have much of an issue on bosses (except Ripsnarl) - even Cookie which seems to be very AOE healing intensive went smoothly when I popped into Holy Serenity and started AOE healing everyone.

Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.

Hmmmm.... interesting question as it doesn't have a normal setting to compared to the others.
Given the difficulty of the heroics I have run I would say its not as hard as GB from an overall standpoint, but not too far from it. Seems harder than Vortex and Tides... couldn't say compared to SFK as I have only run that twice as DPS.
I always hear that the dungeon with the worm and the floaty caster at the end is the hardest.

Grats!! Always nice to feel you've done well, especially in a not so easy dungeon.

THanks all...
so in terms of difficulty, would it be correct to say it is something like this:
Stonecore
Grim Batol
...
Shadowfang
Deadmines
...
The rest??
Where does BRC fit? I heard that was quite tricky... but haven't run it on Heroic yet. Also I would imagine last boss of Tol'Vir would be hard - I always found him quite hard on normal if you lacked DPS.

My only expectation is that the tank actually be wearing tank gear.
The sad part is, maybe 1 in 20 PUG's is this the case.

Good point... I am behind the 'curve' so to speak, so the majority of PUGs I enter are better geared than myself. The Tanks usually being amongst the best geared - I would assume due to the lower queue times.
I think also, my expectations from groups linger slightly from WOTLK days when everyone were in epics...
