Technical details on spell downranking

[lfd]

I think if you're talking about the brief window in December - January where we will have 40 man level 60 end game instances and the BC game mechanics and talent trees then you need have no fear of the downranking nerf making these fights too hard

We're not all going to be launching into level 70 raiding the day the expansion comes out; and if these fights aren't at least looked at to see if they need rebalancing for a group of level 60s (or whatever level they decide to rebalance them for), then it's a terrific waste of content because nobody will run them at all, or will wait until they are vastly overlevelled.

I've no doubt that with the shift in the endgame that MC, BWL, AQ40 and - eventually - Naxxramas will not be run at all, it would be a bit daft to leave them undoable at the level for which they were intended. Content completionists would still like to see these bosses dead before they become too trivial.
