Holiday bosses scale now

Any lvl 16+ character can do holiday bosses now so lots more attempts
at the Big Love Rocket for everyone :-) Thank goodness; I only have
two max lvl characters, but 20 over-16s on my main server (I decided
20 runs a day was more than enough so didn't bother reviving
long-abandoned alts on any other servers...), it probably still won't
drop but chances are slightly improved now!

That explains the group of lowlevels in that group I pugged last night.

That's nice.

The bosses are trivial at lvl 110, I have to say. 15 million health and
they just melt.

Hehe yeah, and also explains many very badly-performing lowbies if
other people are like me, resurrecting ancient characters with no idea
how to play them. Did have to laugh at my old paladin, last played in
TBC with a "hedgehog" (reflect dmg, shield spike etc) prot build... no
way I was going to tank with that gear so going to retri spec I have a
ton of int/sta/dodge gear and a white vendor 2h sword because I didn't
own any 2h weapon at all and none of my retri abilities work with a 1h
lol.

Haha great one. Well I'm happy because it dropped just now!! Kinda in
shock, I thought I hardly had a chance at all, never mind on only day
2; rarity has me at 100 attempts on my main account and 51 on my 2nd
account; the cute little gnome who it actually dropped for will have
to get a matching transmog outfit, because it's got to be her mount
now :-D

So now everyone else is spared grouping with my terrible lowbie alts
lol ;-)

I tanked the holiday boos on my Paladin wearing heirlooms. It was, as
tanking on a Paladin always is, trivial.

"mash 1-5 at random, repeat until the boos is lootable".

Doh, never even thought of using heirlooms to fix the missing pieces;
I ignore them so much nowadays (usually with good reason, as they make
levelling waaaay too fast to be enjoyable; it's bad enough without
them), I completely forgot they existed! Oh well, that alt's gone back
into retirement anyway lol, I have all the other holiday mounts so
unless something new gets added that's queueable, she'll remain an
inactive museum piece ;-)
