Burning Crusade Will Introduce Difficulty Settings

[Monkey]

Another german news site has a different take on that:

Geplant ist zudem eine Möglichkeit, die Instanzen in zwei verschiedene Schwierigkeitsstufen setzen zu können. Z. B. könnte ein Level 61 - 63 Wing auf Stufe 70 aufgestockt , der Schwierigkeitsgrad entsprechend angepasst werden: Die Gegner teilen mehr Schaden aus usw. Im Ganzen soll es für Stufe 70-Spieler eine größere Herausforderung darstellen.

To translate:
Two difficult settings
- normal (for example balanced for level 61-63)
- hard, balanced for level 70

I have thought for a long time that most of the 1-59 instances are largely wasted because people run them a few times and move to the next instance. Then they get to 60 and run MC 4,985,049 times. It would be much cooler if people could get their phat epics out of a variety of instances just by bumping up the difficulty to /levelcap. So you could get your [helm of hawtness] from Van Cleef or go get some [boots of pure awesome] from Thermaplugg.

Edit: it was too early in the morning for me to spell 'phat' correctly.
