http://www.blogcdn.com/www.wowinsider.com/media/2008/12/anubarak-ingame.jpgWe talked about this quickly during yesterday's podcast, but I think most of us have seen most of the instances in Wrath at this point, so we'll ask it here: what do you think of the 5-mans so far?
Actually, I should say that I can't quite pass judgment yet -- I haven't visited the Halls of Stone or Lightning yet, and I haven't yet seen The Oculus (http://www.wowwiki.com/Oculus), which is the instance I was most excited about at launch. But so far, I have to say that Azjol-Nerub (http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/05/08/know-your-lore-azjol-nerub/) is a standout -- not only does it look great, but the fact that it's pretty much all bosses and no trash is a real plus. And having a well-known lore figure (http://www.wowwiki.com/Anub%27arak) to fight at the end doesn't hurt, either.
And of course I remain a fan of Utgarde Keep, though I think it'll eventually be like Hellfire Ramparts, in that I'll just have done it so much eventually that it'll lose any charm I have now. What are your first impressions on playing through all the five mans so far?http://www.wowinsider.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.wowinsider.com)Breakfast Topic: Five-man thoughts (http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/07/breakfast-topic-five-man-thoughts/) originally appeared on WoW Insider (http://www.wowinsider.com) on Sun, 07 Dec 2008 08:00:00 EST.
