Feedback: Mythic+ Testing January 21st - January 28th

The War Within Season 2 dungeon continues on PTR today. The test period starts on Tuesday January 21st at 10:00 PDT (13:00 EDT, 20:00 CEST), and ends Tuesday January 28th at 10:00 PDT (13:00 EDT, 20:00 CEST). Please note that the test period may be adjusted in the event of technical difficulties.

This week testing is focused on the Season 2 Legacy dungeons:

  • Mechagon: Workshop
  • Theater of Pain
  • The MOTHERLODE!!

We are continuing to review combat pacing and tank busters in our legacy dungeons, as well as looking to modernize these dungeons where appropriate.

Operation Mechagon: Workshop
• The Tussle Tonks encounter has been updated.
• Waste Processing Unit no longer casts Process Waste.
• Junkyard D.0.G. no longer uses Metallic Jaws.
• Workshop Defender no longer uses Chainblade.

Theater of Pain
• The Affront of Challengers encounter has been updated.
• The Kul’tharok encounter has been updated.
• Putrid Butcher no longer uses Chop.
• Ossified Conscript no longer uses Cruel Slash.
• Maniacal Soulbinder no longer uses Soul Corruption.

The MOTHERLODE!!
• The Azerokk encounter has been updated.
• Azerite Extractor no longer uses Power Through.
• Weapon Tester no longer casts Force Cannon.
• Shale Biter no longer uses Shale Spit.
• Venture Co. Earthshaper no longer uses Earth Shield.
• Addled Thug no longer uses Clothesline and Knuckle Duster.
• Venture Co. Skyscorcher removed in the V.M.Z.

During the test period you’ll be able to acquire and customize Mythic Keystones by talking to the Keystone Vendor in Stormwind or Orgrimmar, and the nearby Dungeon Teleports NPC will assist you with transportation.

We look forward to hearing your feedback!

Curious as to why dungeon bosses that, mind you, have been mythic+ bosses before, in some cases multiple times, have to be “updated”? Especially considering the track record for doing these updates is overwhelmingly not in your favor.

this isnt true at all there are alot of boss changes that they have made that were great. as for this testing the removal of some of the tank busters is also a nice change lol

Great changes, now PLEASE remove Challenger’s Peril and rollback the stun re-cast changes you guys did for this expansion and s2 is going to be saved.

Easy, they were notorious pain points or trivial during that M+ era, and are being updated to reflect the results of such experiences

why don’t you mention the new mechs you added as well? All the new AOE abilities? Why only mention 30% of the changes in PTR that you think those may attract more players coming back to WoW? Any one in PTR can tell you really really hate healers. Too much healers in LFG? Okay let’s add more AOE mechs, superrrrrrrrrrrr cooooooooool.
