look, im all for SOME friction and difficulty. but having just run excavation site blind in a group without a disease cleanse. this was one of the worst experiences i’ve had in warcraft in a while.
the first leg of the dungeon has a disease that stacks a 150% STAMINA REDUCTION…WITH A 30 MINUTE DURATION!!! as a tank, this meant when i got to the raptors i just instantly crumpled like i was a mage. my stamina was reduced almost to the single digits.
then in the second leg of the dungeon a new challenger appears, a disease with a 15 MINUTE DURATION THAT REDUCES ALL DAMAGE TO ZERO. ACTUAL ZERO. not like, it reduced it by a bit, it reduced it TO NOTHING which meant that i couldnt generate threat against any enemies at all FOR THE REST OF THE DUNGEON
these durations need to be drastically reduced, or the effects lessened, because that was enough that i will never step foot in that dungeon again regardless of how good the rewards are or how fun it might be. holy crap was that terrible. as a tank having your damage reduced to zero for half of the entire dungeon was one of the worst feelings i have ever experienced in wow, just complete inability to play the game, it felt like i was failing my group.
