I hope delves never come back

Only did the intro one and… Blizzard, slow mechanics are never fun. Why is this entire places floor filled with it?

I like delves

So I plan to do more of them, not today tho.

I got some new stuff for Daz Studio for my B-day so taking a break from WoW to play with Studio instead.

WoW isn’t going anywhere, it will be there when I get back to it in a few days.

I don’t equate difficult with fun in my universe

Fun is usually on easy mode as I roflstomp baddies

Like when I used to rush players in Diablo or revisit the starting area and laugh with the level 1 mobs and my toon can /sit and dodge attacks like Mr Hercule trying to punch Perfect Cell

Look again I’ve seen plenty of posts and YouTube praising them.

Also even if they’re absolutely hot garbage you don’t have to do them, removing optional content is a bad idea.

I’m actually just confused why you’re doing them now and burning out even more when the good gear isn’t available yet.

I’m doing it for gearing and because my friend wants me to do them with them. What’s so hard to understand? Is it wrong for me to want to put my dislike for delves off to the side to play with my friend?

Don’t play at that level. I will only play at a level that I can relax in. I got that option.

No, you can dislike them but to remove something entirely optional is hilarious

“its not optional, it needs to be done so i can do high M+ and heroic and mythic raid” - raiders and M+ers

I’m just saying that I hope they never return. It’s just scenarios and torghast combined into one. M+ is optional yet people saying it should be removed.

So what if they return? You can simply ignore them while those who do enjoy them can run them

they are expected to be a permanent fixture - I really don’t know who they appeal to though

My issue is they feel like it was made for toddlers, Like most everything they do now.

if you dont know then they certainly aint for you

I suspect they were meant for players like me though since I mostly play solo

so you do know but you hate the feature

I don’t think they should get rid of them, but they definitely need some iteration. They are not very fun right now in my opinion, for many of the same reasons that Torghast wasn’t. Some of the bosses have cool mechanics, but most of the mobs really just autoattack and lob spells at you repeatedly, meaning most of the difficulty just comes from tuning alone. If you are a mage, you can out-kite the mobs, but if you get caught you will go from 100-20% hp in seconds. Melee don’t have that choice, they just get to die, I guess.

I think this is going to become much more evident when tier 8 delves are released. I also think they need to up the amount of gold you get at the end of the run to 100-300 gold, just so it feels like you are actually finding a pile of money at the end. At least enough to cover your repair costs from getting meleed. They are only really fun as tanks right now. The mobs need to do much more area effects and frontals, and their melee and direct spells need to be pared back.

Agatha, the mage tower boss is a good example of this. She lobbed spells at you, but they only did enough damage to serve as a sort of “enrage timer” for the fight, because as a mage, you are eventually just going to run out of HP due to being unable to heal. It very slowly chipped away at your health, doing around 1-2% of your HP per bolt, while all of the actual damage came from failing mechanics. Delves should be the same way.

Otherwise we are going to end up in a situation where people are just pushing delves that they have no business doing by waiting for their cooldowns to come up every pack, which is boring and is just going to make them seem even less fun when players start trying to spend their cache keys next week.

Ffs… It’s only the second (third) week of the expansion. Season 1 isnt even out yet.

Have you considered, you know, taking your time and chilling out?

It’s okay to not like stuff

Doing them to gear up isn’t a bad plan either

They give normal dungeon level gear right now.

Will give better gear when the higher tiers unlock

Right now you’ve got several options to gear up

The most efficient is heroic dungeons that will get you to i571

Questing and open world stuff can get you better gear than what normal dungeons and delves drop tho.
