no one used midnight mallets on live because they never pulled anywhere near as much agro on live as they do here.
aow hardest boss until elemental planes PoP 2 expansions later, no other fight exists where a raid that performs flawlessly can still fail to win, except AoW.
its the 2nd hardest boss relative to era the game has ever seen, that's why it took so long for people to kill it.

I think the margin for error on AoW is actually higher than on many other fights in later expansions. It just took so long at the time due to the relative noobishness of raiding guilds at the time. A solid AoW strat will take into account the chance of warrior 1-rounding and other risks. Take a guild that had to beat things like OMM and put them into velious toons and AoW would seem like just another trivial boss.
