Well, HotW, for one, has like 935798896273 blue and green loot drops, since it’s quite a long instance and contains pretty much only silver ring mobs, so it’s an adequate side compensation.
CoE is simply bothersome, almost at TA levels, though with less spiders, thankfully. People ran CoE Exp less commonly than any other instance (as far as I’ve observed), so I doubt CoE Story will have much of an audience.
