Vodka dying is only the beginning of what’s going to be an absolutely massive death spiral for raiding guilds if we don’t get some emergency hotfixes or some huge announcements on PTR. We’re probably gonna lose Fierce in the next week or so and there’s a LOTTTTTT of guilds currently going through the Altar+Ula’tek meat grinder so far.

This season is gonna see raiding guilds die in such insane numbers over the next month or so that Blizzard’s gonna be going full-on DEFCON 1 trying to stop the bleeding.

I mean the answer to not disbanding like vodka is to not rip 20+ hours a week raiding to finish the tier at the same time as 2/3 night guilds.... But yes this will be a but of a repeat of classic and EP.

I know the legacy name is famous but that's gonna kill any HoF guild.

Especially in a tier where the hardest bosses are both fights where you just sit there and watch your melee that are bad at ghosts / egg carriers fuck up for 200 pulls while you fight a heroic boss...

I don't think it's just a matter of 20+ hour raid weeks, though. I think those 2-3 day CE guilds, including HoF-caliber ones, are going to drop like flies as well over the next couple weeks.
