Without trying to spit on you, this seems so delightfully logically wrong. Sindragosa
phase one is ****** easy. That only becomes hard when you realize that you need the DPS to stop her from flying up into the air a third time or you might have troubles killing her before enrage in P2. Besides, P2 is altogether where the sh*t starts. The fight is fairly forgiving, but there are so many things to look out for in P2 that it's really easy to forget just one thing. And if two or three people do so, it *will* wipe the raid. If you've never actually killed Sindragosa I can imagine you consider her to be easy, as she doesn't get hard until the very end (there's some innuendo there somewhere).
BQ is probably easier, to be honest, though it does really depend. If you've actually got serious troubles on BQ, Sindragosa will probably be of similar difficulty. The problem with BQ is more about getting everything right in relation with the bites & fear while constantly optimizing DPS, which is something you seem to either do right more or less of the bat or will wipe on a bunch of times.
I said I've come close enough, and by that I mean consistently down to about 500k before we hit enrage and cold aura oneshot us. Our execution was good, it's just getting dps to clean up their act that would have made the difference. I've seen all three phases, and frost tombs are really quite simple if your raid positioning is any kind of respectable, even when dealing with Mystic Buffet. The mechanics in P1 and 2 teach you wtf to do, and then P3 is "okay, now do it all together" and it's really quite simple.
I say it's easier than BQ not because BQ is hard to begin with, but because it's so tight of a DPS race. Sindragosa isn't, our trailing DPS are just that far behind and we only make up on BQ because the top ones are so high that they can pick up the slack once bitten.
I'm talking about all this without the buff, btw. With it, I know BQ is a joke, and we'd have probably had the Lich King even with 5% had I not had to step off due to life aggro and cause our healers to go off and do their own thing.
Edit: Either way, it was a passing opinion, every group is different and handles things differently. I just personally found the demands of Sindragosa to be a lot more straightforward than trying to organize and coordinate the vampire bites with all the other stuff going on in that fight.
Edit2: Aeth, out of curiosity, what is this 10man LOLOL tactic on putricide?
