Q: Why does anyone raid mythic early in the tier if they just nerf them so much later? The goal is CE which you can still get the whole season, no? Why not just have everyone gear up through M+ and start the raid like 3/4 months in?
I think this is April fools for sure, I think these are items they are planning to nerf tomorrow but the percentages are wild lol I think tomorrow they will release the actual percentages and watch the community light on fire.
I think these numbers are real, not an April Fool’s joke. But you need to understand the context of the fight and what the changes are meant to do.
The change to Flamebound & Shadowbound, for example (30% to 5%) seem almost certainly to be there so that teams don’t have to stack 3-5 immunity classes in order to soak the 3rd set of orbs in Intermission. That’s not really a nerf to the fight, that’s a comp change to accomodate people who don’t have “the right classes”.
The most surprising thing is that they didn’t do anything to the Fyrakk P1 mechanics (except Blaze, which is in every phase). People were certain they’d do something with Fyrakk’s shades; reduce the number by 1, cut the laser damage, or at least make their laser beams reach only as far as the graphic, instead of having infinite range.
