Patch 2.4 Notes

[Gorthag]

This is insane. This is insane. Even clearing 25-mans you need to do Kara alongside them if you want more than a handful of things before Wrath hits.

On the other hand, I suppose there's loot incentive in the 25-mans now, since you need badges any way you can get them. I don't quite know if this is exactly the way I would have done it.

I think it's fine, who says anyone is supposed to be able to fill every slot from every available loot source? People can do whatever size dungeon they want, get loot from that and work towards a nice bonus upgrade from the badge vendor at the same time. Sounds like a good design to me.
