How do you defeat Laminaria now?

Running the Battle for Dazar’alor raid and i’m pulling about 250k dps on him. It’s still not enough to pass his second, uninterruptible tides cast. It was working fine before TWW patch. :skull:

Unfortunately, regardless of what Blizz has said in the past, you will now need to wait for TWW, level to max, get some decent end-game gear, then come back.

Sucks super bad, and goes against their stated philosophy of “two expansions old legacy content”, but here we are.

The pre-patch has pointlessly rendered once-soloable and outdated content impossible to solo.

Jerks.

RIP, well, I barely managed to kill him. My bleeds finished him off as I was getting dragged away by a siren lol. Last week I ended up getting no-clipped through the platform.

Ehm… yes?
Max level is no longer 70 but 80. We just simply don’t have access to the TWW content yet but the game is now scaled around that it is. Because that’s what a pre-patch does.

All of this is working as intended.

Yeah, that’s a consequence of this. That part ain’t intended not the way that you are framing it as, but rather just exists as a consequence of the fact that we aren’t max level anymore.

Nice! It’ll be easier once you are max level in TWW though so I wouldn’t worry much about it.

I don’t understand why they even limit it to two or more expansions old. They’ve already dropped the desirable stuff down to 1% or whatever drops, they should just let people farm it in the expansion after

They did say it’s now 3 expansions, when they justified not working on BFA to make it soloable.

It shouldn’t be. I can understand 70 vs 71 because then the secondaries scale down, but at equal level, for 6 years old instanced content that was doable a week ago, should still be now. They also severely nerfed azerite traits armor even though they can’t be used in new content, which is dumb.

Wait, I had no idea they nerfed azerite traits. Does that mean they are completely useless in timewalking dungeons now? Including the mage tower?

Afaik mage tower already disabled azerite stuff. But yeah longstrider, the main reason anyone was going for the armor, was severely nerfed. Went from 35% movement speed to a measly 8%.

Ahh right, I forgot traits doesn’t work there. That still sucks though, nonetheless. :confused:

I’m not quite certain it’s because of the new scaling or because they just decided to nerf fun.

They added the Legacy buff to Legion 4 and a half years ago…it’s time for BFA now.

Yeah legion was modified when it was still 2 expansions. They changed it to 3.

And btw, BFA is under legacy loot right now. Has been for a while. Don’t mix buff and loot together, they aren’t the same thing.
