Yeah, I agree Sssra was actually fun, but outside of Ssra, Burrower and Ring event in AC, that was it. It seems like all efforts on fun raids went into Ssra, and VT was just dropped on top of the pie as the "candy zone" for those insane enough to spend 3 month to get the key, and survive the trash clearing inside. Yeah 4 hours was just for the first floor =)
Without mage-parking, which i personally consider a cheat, there was no way any sane guild would do VP, both floors, in 1 day, even during PoP era, unless you were already over-geared for it.

As much as I loved beauty of the VT zone, the mobs models, and the "candies", PoP was inherently better raiding approach - the progression was based on difficulty of raids themselves, not on mindless grinding.
