Will there be a new 5-man in the works?

Is there any possibility of seeing a new 5 man instance for 3.1? I would love to see a hard mode style 5 man such as MGT was, that brings back some CC and a little strategy when it comes to certain mobs and bosses. Offer epic quality loot and maybe valor badges instead of heroism?

Perhaps a new wing to the "Halls of..." instances by Ulduar....Halls of Shadow maybe? I love the 5 man aspect, 1 tank 1 heals and 3 dps exploring a dungeon in the span of an hour or so. Having a new challenge to look forward to as a daily dungeon would be a great new addition. It would also be a way to provide some of the items that are not seen very often in raids, such as +hit gear, relics/trinkets or slow 1H weapons.

Definitely not for patch 3.1. You mentioned Magister's Terrace and remember that came in the last patch of the content cycle for The Burning Crusade and we have a ways to go to finish Wrath of the Lich King. There is quite a possibility we will add one in a future patch, but we will have to wait and see as we have no details to share at this time.
