It’s time to nerf the Underpin on hard mode. The numbers are fine. The mechanics just need to be consistent. Either make it so the adds never split up or make them die from 2 bomb kicks for DPS. 90% of the fight is mechanics. The fight requires a fair bit of luck. Also make it so the boss doesn’t target Brann with his jumps. The moon and the stars aligned and I got him down at 684 ilvl. It’s time to make the fight a little easier.

The bombs were weird to click on because I would be clicking on the big stinker.
However, don’t worry about missing out, Blizz will put this on the trading post or shop in 2 years or so. Removing content is the #1 easiest way to add new content people would want to buy in the shop or trading post.

But you got him down. It’s doable. So why nerf it? I don’t want to beat a hobbled version of it. That’s not satisfying.
The adds can split even if you position correctly. The bombs don’t always drop where you need them to be . You have to get lucky. Zek’vir wasn’t this hard.
But that’s part of the challenge.
You should be able to get him down because you handled the mechanics well, not because RNG worked out in your favor. He will sometimes jump across the room because of Brann.

It’s a challenge. Just because the window of time to complete the challenge is almost over doesn’t mean that you get it complete it for free.
If you can’t complete the challenge, you can’t complete the challenge. That’s how life works bub.
If you can’t cope with other people being better at the game than you, I would suggest checking out Hello Kitty Island Adventures, which has everyone on the same playing field, regardless of skill.
Clicking? Like actually clicking with your mouse?
You gotta bind that to a hot key. I bound it to “Q”.
Clicking is diabolical.
i did the ? and got tired of trying for the ??
idm though. it’s not like i care about it.
Let me beat it first then ask for its nerf.
Its easy as it is.
The only thing they should’ve done is make it so the bombs had click priority over the Underpin so that it wasn’t essentially required to bind the function to a hotkey. That jank bothered me not because it was difficult to do, but because it’s the only time the entire game where you have to use a hotkey to do what’s normally a mouse function.
I finished it. The fight is still too hard.
Nah , the golden skin sucks anyways

It’s a challenge mode. Overcome it.
i did it a while back, but I do still think it was a horrible RNG-fest whose difficulty came from needing exceptional luck rather than skill and planning. Whatever they cook up for season 3, i hope the mechanics are more determinsitic.

I agree purely because that boss is far too difficult considering what you get lol.
Just not really worth it unless you’re a hardcore collector who must get all the achievements.
The reason why they implemented it was to help with clicking NPCs/items that were crowded by players, then over time it became the de-facto best way to handle anything that normal click to interact did.
Clicking things instead of using an interact keybind is the “keyboard turner” of modern WoW.
