World of Warcraft at Ten Ton Hammer

It's about time someone other than the players got hit with the nerf-bat!

Reports are coming in that bosses from the Burning Crusade expansion will be seeing a nerf in the 3.0 patch for Worlf of Warcraft. Beta testers are reporting a reduction in boss health up to 30%.

My gut instinct was, "Ugh, why are they nerfing everything so badly? That's ridiculous. Just because it's the end of the expansion doesn't mean they need to make it easy mode for us." Then I actually thought (gasp!) about it for a little bit. Looking at the changes coming in Patch 3.0.2, this was a change they needed to make to let us still raid until Wrath. A lot of encounters probably became impossible to beat as they were with those changes, Sunwell Plateau especially.
