You weren't even there. You basically watched it on TV. Why would you expect it to be some super-engaging experience? You watched a rerun of The Price is Right and are confused that it wasn't as interesting as attending an actual filming when Bob was still the host and you made it to the showcase showdown.

Besides that though, there's probably more finesse and tactics involved in a "cheese" strategy than a "let's all stand under his belly and die" "tactic." The latter relies almost entirely on time invested. It's numbers, levels, and resist gear grinded up. How would THAT be less stale than squeezing out a kill with an under-leveled and under-geared raid force by use of some emergent gameplay?

What they did won't even be a viable method for more than a couple weeks anyways. The only reason it was possible is because no one else is anywhere remotely nearby or able to/interested in fighting naggy.

If it really bothers you so much, consider researching how a fight would have played out on classic live. If there were different mechanics that would have changed the way the fight worked, then submit evidence and maybe the staff will change things so that you can feel things are less "stale."
