And the best part? The maxium party size for Dire Maul is five players. No more zerging instances. Woohoo!

Quote:All other dungeons in the game will be capped at 10 members.Several dungeons will be re-examined for balancing in light of thischange. In addition, will have their loot improved significatnly forthe next content patch.

This is a nice change, except for that the last time I checked the entrance to MC was in BRD. Didn't see anything in the patch notes about this, but one would hope someone at Blizz has thought this trough :whistling:

Apparantly now there will be a quest to "discover" MC from Blackrock and once you do, there will be a way to go straight to it from outside the instances. This was a reply by Blizzard to help alleviate these concerns, but I forget where it was said or who said it.

I like the idea of another dungeon to play in. Except this one is populated by ogres - definitely not looking forward to staring at belly buttons for hours...

Wait until you get to molten core.

Staring at groins of molten giants for hours at a time! Ah the life of a warrior!

The patch notes did mention that ogres were getting an upgrade in their looks with this patch. Also, from the Dire Maul preview linked above, it looks like there will be a lot of undead highborne and demon mobs in there, too.
