Here is your chance. Unless you want to start a second account. I'm using my alternate for this one.

I would gladly play all day long if the game was like it was back during the Hulk events.

To settle my nerves I would just like to hear that the Heroic lvls that some of us are facing are intentional and not bugged. Personelly I started the day looking at lvl 230 baddies and they are now ~140ish after a couple of big defeats. Were these lvls intential or what? If so, I will take a break from the game this weekend and enjoy the beatiful -10ºC weather outside.

It's an issue.

It was the same way for previous Heroic events. I'm assuming it was to increase the challenge and encourage players to try new characters. Precisely it, and as stated it's how all our Heroics run. Heroics are designed to be more difficult than the standard versions through some harder fights and a limited character roster. We completely get that it can lock out some newer players or those that haven't developed their rosters. That's an unfortunate side effect. However, the upside to that is that every time we run a Heroic we see players heavily investing into roster breadth afterwards so that they can be effective in other events. At that point, those players tend to play more effectively in all events (PVP or PVE) past that.

My bracket leader with a 2* and 1* weak roster already has close to 3k points in the same time period. How is this fair for players with high MMR?
