Yesterday Nick Arvites from Video Game Generation posted an excellent article on the complaints that many players have about the Dungeon 2 armor set (commonly refered to as the tier 0.5 set).

Blizzard, in an attempt to appease those complaining about the distinct lack of casual content in level 60, introduced the .5 tier, or Dungeon 2 armor sets. These sets are class-specific, and require a player to have the Dungeon 1 pieces and run an epically long chain of quests. Sounds good so far, right? After all, the Dungeon 1 sets required numerous runs through Stratholme, Blackrock Spire, and Scholomance, and players may want to do something different now. Too bad Blizzard dropped the ball implementing this quest chain and the Dungeon 2 sets. Instead of getting viable content for casual gamers or even small-group players, Blizzard provided an incredibly long, expensive, hard and frustrating quest-chain to reward casual players with gear that isn’t exactly a high step up from the Dungeon 1 set. In other words, the Dungeon 2 set isn’t exactly casual and isn’t exactly worth the trouble.
