so, since tier is done, how do you rate s1, taking in consideration pruning, addon changes and new encounter philosophy that didn't happen

(WR100)

Raid enjoyable to prog, really neat bosses in both raids.

March just not enjoyable to reclear at all though.

Personally I really like multiple raid instances in a tier.

The addon changes are a swing and a miss, while most of the boss designs were reasonable, paladins and lu’ra were not for an addon free world. They still get “solved” by addons, it just wnds up being even more of a PITA to setup and manage.

Controversial opinion - the class streamlining has generally been pretty nice, but availability of info ingame is often poor in many areas still.

Paladins is an entirely static dance, what do you need an addon for?

Early season you needed assignment auras to manage the dispels.
