I'm sure there have been a million and two of these posts on the forums already, but blizz, you REALLY need to re-tune the smaller groups for BRF. My guild is really not bad, but we just keep banging our heads against the gruul wall, and i hate the fact that ive seen other equally-skilled but larger groups cruise through the same content. PLEASE FIX ASAP! <3

Looking into the data, we've found that the direct damage from Gruul's Inferno Slice in particular was scaling up slightly slower than raid size, when usually our "meteor damage" abilities scale in direct proportion to raid size. As a result, assuming a similar percentage of the total raid splitting the Inferno Slice, it was inflicting more damage per player in smaller raid sizes. We have a hotfix in the works for this issue (keeping the damage unchanged for large raid groups, reducing it for smaller ones), which will likely take effect tomorrow. Thanks for the feedback, which helped direct our attention to this problem.
