People used to say this, more to show off and sigh.
However, the difficulty of copying in the past is unimaginable now. Where are the copies of the previous 40 people? It's not that nobody paddles. There are many people paddling, but make it clear.
One is purple clothes in the 1960s, when purple clothes were not like this. Make a hero copy, and a few brands can get it done. Almost all the purple equipment was acquired through a raid by 40 people. At the time of land reclamation, everyone basically wore blue-green equipment, and some even wore level 50 until land reclamation. At that time, you couldn't see purple clothes everywhere. You got a purple dress, which is a symbol of strength.
Second, additives. Mixing, now you can see the mixing effect. Take the 60-level MT mixture, Titan mixture. Its function is to increase the player's maximum health 1200 points. You know, the slogan of the most powerful T at that time was ten thousand blood prevention. Now, any cloth can exceed 10 thousand blood.
Third, teamwork. Generally speaking, a team of 40 people has 4 or 5 T's, and each T has its own treatment, plus the treatment of the whole group. Basically, half of the team is T and therapy, and the others are DPS. However, some BOSS require the accuracy of T walking and the position of DPS at each stage. It is common to run 10 corpses several times a night.
Fourth, personnel organization is difficult. Compared with 25 people, the number of 40 people is more 15, which requires a guild to have more active population to participate in RAID, and organizing people is a hassle.
Generally speaking, TBC is not simple, but it is easy to obtain equipment. Compared with level 60, the equipment foundation of land reclamation is much better, the BOSS is weakened, and RAID is not so tired.
This is what Blizzard said, to reduce the burden of RAID and let more people experience the fun of the game instead of being tired. In a word, the change of blizzard has caused the status quo.
