Right over your heads, sorry. And I know Roger didn't do the zone, but whoever did was sent to the Russian Front (ok another WW2 reference).
But that zone was absolutely horrible, the worst in the game by my ranking for the sake of the trash. Wonderful, you did 7K AE dps on a zillion mobs, for hours. No sense of danger or excitement as the mobs sit there waiting for you to arrive, just of watching your life tick away.
I don't think it unreasonable anymore to rate a raid zone solely on the nature of its trash mobs.
