As you might have read, a few members of the WoW.com crew hit the PTR over the weekend and took a few runs through the Pit of Saron, one of the new 5-man dungeons in Patch 3.3. It's also the only one currently available for testing. We didn't walk away from it with only our impressions posts for you, oh no. We also have screenshots and video.
Above you'll find our video of Forgemaster Garfrost, the first boss of the instance. Behind the cut below, you'll find the other two bosses (Krick and Scourgelord Tyrannus) and something a little... special. All of the videos are edited to make sure none of the story moments of the instance are included, so the narrative won't be spoiled for you at all. Enjoy!
Patch 3.3 is the last major patch of Wrath of the Lich King. With the new Icecrown Citadel 5-man dungeons and 10/25-man raid arriving soon, patch 3.3 will deal the final blow to the Arthas. WoW.com's Guide to Patch 3.3 will keep you updated with all the latest patch news. Filed under: Patches, Analysis / Opinion, News items, Instances

I think you mean "Win! This doesn't look like any of the 5-man dungeons!"

For some reason the "needlessly... abrupt... ending..." cracked me up. Thanks for the chuckles. :)

Nooo i ment fail.....because there all ready running it with 4 peeps so that would mean way to eazy !

They're running it with 4 people in FULL TIER 9 GEAR. Of course it's going to be easy. Most of the people/casuals who do this instance will not have full tier 9 gear.

Krick and Ick are going to wipe many groups. It looks to be a top contender for the "Don't stand the damn posion!" fight.

Something tells me I'll be replacing my Ulduar gear with crap from a Heroic . . . again.

Anyone else notice the chat channel guy saying "I'm on a float" followed by "That's old song you F***s!" during the video? No? Just me? Oh damn. I love the chats in game.
