This I agree with. Prepatch was not the time to apply this.

Yeah, I’m not really sure why they made these ilvl changes for leveling characters, but I’m confident that’s what their focus was and that the instance changes (particularly for raids) were unintentional.

Perhaps I’m being too charitable though and it actually is a middle finger to players who aren’t buying TWW. :dracthyr_crylaugh:

Yeah, I can get to the Stormwall on my DK. I can get to Mekatorque on my hunter. However, beyond that it is not possible at the moment due to HP pools.

The DK can tank everything Mekatorque throws at her…but the hunter dies. The hunter might be able to pass the DPS check, but the DK is too slow.

I was able to collect full sets excluding from Dazar’alor excluding a leg piece that drops from council or Jaina without issue. It took longer than it did in the previous week, but it was not impossible. It is not being held hostage.

Sadly it’s not the BFA raids that have gotten harder to do, even the Shadowland raids you can’t solo anymore. Blizzard really need to remove this scaling system because it just doesn’t work. I miss the old time where every zones had a set level mobs and you know what to expect going in.

They shouldn’t touch them - period, full stop.

The only reason to touch instanced content like this would be to take away player power to sell it back in the newest expansion.

Why do some feel it is ok to let developers take advantage of us like this?

If that’s true, then that’s dumb as hell. They barely made them doable a few months ago. Now they’re back to being stupid hard?

Yeah this is really bad. They need to hotfix nerf the BfA and SL content back down ASAP.

No wonder. I went into mythic Uldir last night as part of my all-things-gold transmog collecting spree and the boss health pools seemed outrageous.

Ion doesn’t want his precious raids to be soloable. Someone worked hard on those and by gosh, he will take credit and ensure those raids look immaculate for years to come, mechanics and all.

This is not a real design pattern. It’s safe to say that the changes are a bug.

Dumb as hell. There’s quite literally no reason to bother tuning ancient content at all.

You know, once upon a time, the moment you dinged one level beyond an expansions level cap, your character received a massive boost to damage against anything below that level. So, if you went back to a previous expansions raid at say level 71, when the expansions level cap was 70, you could one shot anything.

Then, they changed their philosophy on how legacy content is handled. They decided that they don’t want us farming transmogs easily from the previous two expansions. Except, if you don’t buy the newest expansion, it then becomes the three previous expansions.

At any time, they could turn that damage toggle back on, but they know how to manipulate us into having to buy the newest expansion. It’s scummy and nasty.
