Many wow gold players were expecting a change of this nature.
It has been a while since that happened.If memory serves the longest standing boss this expansion was Algalon the Observer, and that fight was not only extremely time consuming to unlock -- it also had a 1 hour time limitation.This jives with the early news we've had about the new Ruby Sanctum instance. It'll come as somewhat of a surprise if the loot from the new boss is really on par with the ilvl 284 gear that can be obtained from The Lich King's heroic version. I suppose it isn't that unreasonable since this instance will probably have to tide over the raiders that do manage to master Icecrown Citadel on heroic difficulty.This seems to reinforce the idea that the new encounter will be similar to how Sartharion was back when the highest tier of raiding was Naxxramas; some high level off-set pieces that aren't absolutely necessary but are well worth the effort.The changes made to resilence were creating a PvP atmosphere where some healers seemed nearly impossible to kill. Resto Druids and Holy Paladins in particular were able to attain levels of physical damage reduction akin to a PvE geared tank thanks to their naturally high armor, and high resilience. This change will essentially deflate the value of healing by an amount roughly similar to the amount of damage reduction provided by the changes to resilience.This should make life a little bit easier for damage dealers, but it'll still be quite a task to take down a healer without someone applying a wound effect and interrupting casts effectively. Many wow gold players were expecting a change of this nature after the resilience buff was announced.
