0. Question About "Trial of the Grand Crusader" 07/31/2009 10:11:49 AM PDT
I understand that in order to activate the Trial of the Grand Crusader, someone in that raid group needs to have completed the normal raid at least once. However I thought I heard at one point that Blizzard is only releasing one boss per week. Meaning, that Hard mode will not be available for 5 weeks after the release of 3.2. Can anyone confirm this given that that bit of information was release near the beginning of the PTR, and NOT ONCE SINCE, even in the Q&A was it mentioned?

Assuming there are no further changes, you are correct.

Q u o t e:
Well, the whole Algalon setup was such a winner that they decided to do it with every boss!
I can't see the flaw in logic. *looking in opposite direction*
the algalon setup is not that he magically unlocks 1 or 5 weeks.
I CAN see the flaw in your logic

Q u o t e: Five weeks. Really. Raid driven progression timeline means nothing anymore.
The normal difficulty is tuned to be very accessible. The true "progression" will start at week 5 when all guilds have access to heroic difficulty. That is the progression that will matter, and it will be raid driven.
We must hasten back on the wings of prose to the kingdom and its folk, who prompted my rather lengthy digression...

Q u o t e:
I have enough brain capacity to be able to actively participate in all parts of life. It has nothing to do with my statement however.
I am fortunate to have the competency to excel in all parts of my day. You however might want to not admit that you can't in a public forum.

And for those of us who are finished with Ulduar and don't really relish the idea of going back into old content for the next month and a week?

Q u o t e:
It was more that the boss wasn't immediately available in any way, shape, or form. It's an analogy, not a direct comparison.
how is this illogical?
maybe you need to choose your words properly.
