Yeah.. not really the fix we needed for guardian druids but whatever. Why WOULD you want your players happy right?
seems like you guys buffed friendlsy npcs damage and did not say anything about that
does the guy that suggested this change for druid plays wow ? Stupidest change ever. It is pretty clear that the problem is the dps check from the 2nd phase.
Phase 1 as Guardian is perfectly balanced, you are forced to shapeshift out of form a lot, use incap, root, anything to keep damaging/staying alive when moving into Phase 2. You get no breather (which is fine - timing is very important as a tank, I get that), then you are stuck at a race between pumping in priority damage to the boss and incidental/cleave damage to the other adds. This phase is really the only road block, which is perfectly fine but as soon as you get to 3 annihilates, its game over. With all of that said, I don't think they need to drastically nerf things or change major mechanics within this challenge. I would much rather they looked at the feasibility of classes with current base level gear - no gimmick trinkets - and check if its viable for the average player. Before just taking a "stab" at what they think is the problem, when in reality its not even close to it.
blizzard have !@#$ in your head! that !@#$ "fix" is worst than it was on beginning.
Consequence of this change is now the cast doesn't break if you typhoon them - awesome.
ITT people want the mage tower to be easy content. Why can't we have challenging solo content in this game without people crying? When you have content that is supposed to be completed by everyone you get islands, warfronts, and torghast. Boy weren't those a banger! There's not even player power attached to this. This isn't "casual" content. A lot of people remembering tower when they outgeared it by 50 ilvls at the end of legion instead of at release.GIT GUD. You can do it. Every challenge is doable. Time to finally learn how to play your class.
The BM challenge took 16minutes. That's too freaking long.The mage tower fights don't need to be that long.Brawler's guild was fun because it was short fights with interesting mechanics.If they want long fights then they should all be tuned to be 10min max for an average player.And it you want challenge give it a mythic option that rewards some cheesy title. Because cosmetics don't matter and maybe stop gate keeping what pitiful content there is for other players
ok idone it after 170 try This is rly nice look <3
The nether horror "hotfix" for guardian druid mage tower is ridiculous I've spent many many hours progressing p2 for it to be totally changed because the horrors don't move while casting but they do while channeling resulting in velen dying almost everytime. It was and is a lot easier to time roar for the cast just like in legion very unnecessary change. The 6k health change to kruul means nothing when it got harder elsewhere in the fight.
These aren't nerfs, these are straight up buffs for Guardian Druid challenge. If you fail to aggro Nether Horrors they'll gang up on Velen and start casting Nether Storm which will fold him like a wet noodle. If you do aggro them and you aren't on the edge of the pool, then you can't any longer interrupt Variss along with them. If you don't gather them up, they'll just start casting and then you are doomed. An actual nerf would be to make them move slower during channel phase so that you can outrun them. I can't escape them at my top speed with Dash if they start casting.
For those wanting this to be hard: They could always have a hard mode where you win a title. I think locking titles behind hard stuff is a better idea than transmog. Titles for the elite few. Transmog for all game lovers. Not being able to get the Druid bear form sucks.
Like I said before..People done it, did it... if you cant do it...you need to play more the class.Nerfing thing is not the way to "fix" thing...it just takes the fun away . Then blizzard wonder why people leave warcraft a few days after they lunch something.(happens everytime)If they are going to apply Nerft to the ""Mage Tower challenge"" Might as well... 1st DELETE -challenge- and call start calling it, just the "Mage Tower", only.2nd. Send the achievement to everyone's mailbox.. Not worth the trip to the tower anymore.GG Blizz
I have not had much time this reset, but have completed 5 challenges, including tank and heal. Did not feel overtuned to me. I didn’t do the feltotem one, but If I remember correctly it’s the easiest one. I assume the rumors of that being overtuned as well is just fake news too.
WHO THOUGTH THIS WAS A NERFT? The whole point was to swipe the adds while they chase you before they can finish the cast.Now they stop...finish the cast...and chase you WITH the blasting 1 shot spell. wtf, this complicate things
