Ulduar is easily my favorite raid tier ever. ToC with togglable hard modes was a mistake, one that has echoed for 4 tiers now. Pressing Mimiron's big red button to make the fight harder made sense. Clicking heroic mode before even entering the raid and the fight just being more difficult, does not.

I like the big, multi wing raids best, such as Ulduar and ICC. Easier wings early on for more casual raiders, with harder bosses later on. This way a guild does not have to choose one smaller raid to do for the week, do what they can, and have something to push for later.

Ulduar was really the pinnacle of PvE content. Big, epic, lore rich, flavorful and meaningful hard modes made it the best by far. My little casual guild and I were so pleased when we got our rusted drakes near the end of wrath, because Ulduar was still fun and challenging for us.
