I dont even bother to run old heroics anymore unless its a random for some frost badges. I will do FoS normal over and over for basges plus if you de and you should have a chanter in your group you get gobs of abyss crystals that selll for 25-30 g all day; I have stacks of them. Even if you could do H Gundrak which has 5 emblems and H Nexxus which has 5 emblems in an hour you would be getting one more emblem than me and you can only do them once a day. Old heroics are pretty much useless to me now there is really nothing in them for me except maybe the stam trinket for my druid I would use on offspec for his tank but other than that everything in the old heroics is junk do your one for the daily frostbadges and then screw em. RUn N FoS over and over this will also give you the skills needed to beat it on heroic with ease! Dude that says he does heroic gundrak in 6 mins and skips eck..make a vid becuase there is no way you kill 4 bosses and even pull and kill the trash and dont loot in 6 mins I find that hard to believe but then again I loot every mob I kill and my times and gold bank reflect that. I'd like to see you do a H HoL in 6 mins..lmfao
If it takes you 18 minuets per run that is 2 badges per run. Assuming you can do 3 in 1 hour that is 6 badges, not 7, but i'll give you the extra first boss kill. If you are in 100% blues or something that is decent i suppose? I mean if you get nexus or gundrak you get those 7 badges in about 30 minuets max even if you are in mediocre gear. People like niley and such who run through heroics in 15-20 minuets per pretty much no matter what is is (i'd assume minus occ and HoR)

Theres a mathmatical breakdown in another thread of mine that someone else posted, that once you are geared you can make over 2k an hour just because of all the extra badges (about 20 per hour). Theres no way you are making that much profit from doing the normal FoS. Doing normal FoS/PoS should only be done until your team gets the gear it needs form there. Otherwise you make more g/instance otherwise. If you are happy about the 2-3 abyss crystals you get... you said that is what 90g on your server? The random LFG tool gives you 65g of that every time you finish an instance. So i'm not sure what you are trying to say when you state that normal FoS is better than a normal heroic... when it clearly isn't. You get atleast double the badges for the same amount of time per run from heroics. Bages = money, drops = money... it's not like normal FoS can drop hilts.
