Tigole on Zul'Aman: Have fun storming the castle!

by Elizabeth Harper Jul 12th 2007 at 4:11PM

Zul'Aman, previewed yesterday at E3, has widely been reported as a "more casual" dungeon due to the fact that it won't require any lengthy key quest or attunement process and its shorter reset time. Tigole, however, has taken exception to the casual tag for Zul'Aman and has attempted to clarify the difficulty level of the dungeon. Says Tigole:

Zul'Aman will be more difficult than Karazhan
Zul'Aman will have better drops than Karazhan
You'll probably need gear from Karazhan (or better) to succeed in Zul'Aman

And then he wishes us all the best of luck. Have fun storming the castle! (Though whether he's repeating the next two lines quietly to himself is up to question.)

Maybe my 48 mage main WILL go through here until the next expansion....Unlike BT...

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh more 10 man drama to be had!

Cosu Jul 12th 2007 4:40PM

well it's less compared to a 25-man drama...

A lot of guilds are feeling the pain of transition between 10 man and 25 man content. Karazhan is awesome, but when 10 people finish it they have nothing to do until 15 other folks in the guild catch up to them. New 10 man content will help that somewhat.

I am excited to be able to move onto another new 10 man instance. It is alot easier to find a time that is good for 10 guildies than 25.

I also liked Tigole's quote from Princess Bride. Got a laugh out of that.

How is it more casual than Kara if it actually requires Kara gear?

@ #7: How dare you utilize logic? Don't let them know who you are

>> How is it more casual than Kara if it actually requires Kara gear?

It isn't. That's really the entire point of this article. Congratulations.

Tigole said 'harder then kara, but u can complete with blue gear'.
Want me to slice it more simple for u?

Sloegin Jul 12th 2007 6:42PM

This is the same person that said 45 minute Dead-side Stratholme was doable in greens.

overneathe Jul 12th 2007 6:47PM

It is now :P

mattyt17 Jul 12th 2007 7:28PM

it's more "casual" b/c it doesn't have 11-14 bosses and take 3 nights to complete!

I know the whole point is to click the link to Tigole's post, but it would be nice if WoWInsider would quote his whole post 'after the jump.'

I think I speak for a lot of guilds when I say: weeeeeeeh!

Marcel Jul 13th 2007 5:20AM

Will there be a new T-Set such as the AQ sets? T4,5 or something?

Great, more content that I'll never get to see. I can't even get into Kara because I'm not "sufficiently" geared and can't get PUGs to run the instances to get said gear.

And no, I'm not swimming in gold (people seem to think that Outlands is easy to rake in the gold, but I've not found it so) so I can't afford to buy whatever better gear is available on my greedy server.

@17: Try doing daily quests.
10 quests a day, where each nets you 11g approximately
That's 110g a day if you complete them all.
770g a week if you fill your quota for 7 days in a row.
Even if you don't manage to complete them all, they are quick and provide a steady income. Nobody has to complain about money in WoW anymore - it might take a bit of time to get the three digit numbers, but you will get there without to much effort. Don't be lazy.

To stay on topic. I'm looking forward to this instance. I loved ZG and I hope this one will bring a bit of the old jungle feeling back. Karazhan is getting boring and more 10 man content would be excellent to tackle, especially when you don't have the 25 people online to go into the big instances.

I think Tigole intended ZA to be a bridge between the difficulty of Kara and the difficulty of Gruul's Lair. If only they made it a 15 man dungeon as a better bridge.

Paul Graham Jul 26th 2007 4:54AM

Good news on a new 10 man. But why dont we just for 2 months after it comes out for blizz o nerf the hell out of it as they have done kara. I went back to kara for the first time in 3 months with a blue geared guild raid and I cannot believe how easy bossesl ike Curator and Aran have become. I remember these bosses being large pain in the backsides.
