Heroics Difficulty Order

I've done a lot of the heroics in Wrath, and I've noticed that some of them are significantly harder than others. For example, UK and Azjol-Nerub are a breeze, but Halls of Stone is really tricky. Does this mean they are harder according to the normal difficulty level range, or is it just a coincidence?
|||I've only done a few heroics (Naxx 25 being one of them :D) But the ones i have done have been a walk in the park. Did VH just after dinging 80 and it wasn't like doing a heroic at all :P|||Yeah VH Heroic is just like doing the normal version at level 74 lol... So can one assume the difficulty level is the same as the leveling order?|||it does seem that the lower level dungeons are a lot easier on heroic than the lvl 80 dungeons are. but that said ive not really had a super hard heroic to do as long as the group is switched on. a couple of boss's have the really annoying feature that if you are following the fight and working as a group you will die|||They're trying to make it accessible to everyone, not just hardcore players.f|||From my personal experiences, the hardest heroics are the 'level 80' ones - Utgarde Pinnacle, Halls of Lightning, Oculus and CoT: Stratholme. Of non-80 heroics, the hardest is probably Old Kingdom.

Utgarde Keep, Nexus and Draktharon Keep (with the exception of optional King Dred in the latter), on other hand, are relatively easy and forgiving to mistakes. Azjol'Nerub, Halls of Stone and Gundrak fall somewhere in between these two groups.

Violet Hold is a special case, since its difficulty depends on the bosses that RNG decides to send your way. While some of them haven't changed much between normal and heroic, others are capable of wiping an unprepared group within seconds (Xevozz is a good example of the latter).|||Indeed, the lvl 80 normals are the hardest on heroics, but Violet Hold deserves special mention for putting you back to square one if you wipe, including bosses, but without loot. And chances are, if you wiped on a boss, Obliterator or the ethereal, that you're going to wipe again... resulting in you wasting that day's VH.

Ja ne|||I haven't done Oculus or Utgarde Keep/Pinnacle on heroic yet - but so i have the same view on the difficulties as above.

I have a guild group thats farming Culling of Stratholme for Bronze Drakes ;p

In my opinion it's one of the easiest heroics - but might aswell be good teamwork in my group. (3 drakes in 5 attempts - could have been 4 if we hadn't battled Mal'ganis and gone straight for the Corrupter instead)|||Quote:

Without loot, but with full rep.

In fact, deliberately taking off gear after wave 11 in order to wipe and reset the instance is the fastest way to farm Exalted with one of the 'tabard factions'.|||It is easily resettable rep, bu if your after rep the normal way I reccomend the Nexus, UK and Drek, loads of very easy trash giving rep
