First off, I'd just like to say I'm posting this in a new thread because I am going to outline a possibility for a compromise, and ask for other people's suggestions as well. Anyway, I've been thinking about this a fair bit, and this is what I came up with: 2 versions of the 4 instances that were going to be affected.  The first instance will be exactly the same, no changes whatsoever.  Same chance for master chest, but no chance for the new fabled item's.  The second instance would be the new version, with 100% master chest, and a chance at the new fabled item's. However,  this would allow for even more farming, of people doing both instances one after another, so I'd propose that if someone did instance one, they would be locked out of both instances for 18 hours.  If they did instance 2, they would be locked out of instance 2 for 6-8 days, and locked out of instance 1 for 18 hours.  Actually, while I'm writing this, I realise that the guaranteed master chest of instance 2 would require the re-timer on instance 1 to be longer, else it would be a massive increase, so 42 hours instead of 18 would be more reasonable. Hopefully we can get a good spread of opinions and suggestions, from both the hardcore and casual raider. <div></div>

Thank you, I realised that there were answers in that thread, but in the whole they were getting covered up by the arguments and flaming being conducted by both sides.  I started a new thread so that peoples suggestions could be easily viewed.  It seems we had a fairly similar view, but as I posted in my suggestion, if there's 2 instances, having the smaller one on a 18 hour retimer is too low, with a guaranteed master chest from the second instance. <div></div>
