Yes.

On a personal level, I've always found gold-loss to be harsher than exp loss since I'm spending the majority of my play time at max level. Exp-loss is huge until you reach max level. From there on out, you're pretty much always getting rezzes. CR's can be very harsh though.

so this is why you're glorifying wow raiding. there's nothing mechanic driven about moving out of bombs and kiting the fire in a zig-zag pattern on 25m firefighter, sorry. like i said before, it's just more ddr/guitar hero mechanics. and 1 light? did you never get 0?

hell, mods did 99% of the fight for you, especially the one that graphically drew directions in-game before they outlawed it in the API.
The difficulty has always been from having you and 24-39 pals not fuck up for 5 minutes. In EQ, it is much easier to not fuck up since there is so much less being expected from the player. We literally used to have melees afk with auto-attack on for 30 minutes on some Vex Thal bosses. For the most part, this game does not ask anything out of a raiding player until Uqua.

I'm not arguing that WoW is ball-busting hard (outside of upper-level PvP, that is), but compared to fucking Everquest, it's Ikaruga.
