Less than 3% Have Completed a Single Mage Tower Challenge

Maybe not 97% but def 90%

You aren’t the only one. I got my holy priest skin (along with a few others but that was the worst one) back in Legion and as such have ZERO desire to step in that place ever again. I’d like the mount, but not enough do it on multiple characters. The transmogs are ugly and I don’t play druid.

It’s also the thing that a few people seem to think is the end all be all and they lose if others get.

This data doesn’t surprise me and I really don’t think it is necessarily a bad thing. Challenges should be difficult, 3% does seem narrow though. I personally don’t think it should have more than a 10% completion rate.

I will say that you can take my opinion with a grain of salt because I haven’t done it myself, but I do see people completing them gearless or adding extra challenges AND people have all 36 specs complete on it; so it seems doable.
I would have tried it out but:

  • WoW is currently uninstalled (would have reinstalled but:)
  • DK set is ugly to me and not worth my time
  • I’m not happy with the current state of the game and I don’t know if I will play 9.2 and further xpacs, so I don’t want to waste my time on 20 attempts for something I will never use, or even see if I never play for real again.

Unironically yes; and I am probably a part of the 97%.

over 97% of players no longer play the game? /theory

out of what? Active players? All Players? All Characters?

certainly not out of the number of players who attempted it.

you fail 100% of the time the things you dont try.

how do you work that thing? how many players managed to make it to lvl 60?

how many managed to get “Recollection Collection” achievement? that is certainly easier to get than the Mage Tower

Guys, I just finished my 7/7. I can already feel my smugness and condescenion levels drastically rise. As someone who has never healed or tanked anything serious in 16 years of playing this game, some of the scenarios do need a (very) minor nerf. Healing scenario was one of the hardest things I have done and I just barely made it with full gem slotted gear/old expansion enchants. In fact, I did die but the NPCs finished the boss off (barely). I will say that all the work and persistance you put in does feel like an awesome and genuine moment of self-evaluation when you do finish it.

It’s not accurate. It relies on the armory, the armory isn’t accurate many times. The armory has been screwed for a good long while now.

Too bad the armory isn’t very accurate.

^also this

Thats 3% FFXIV won’t get!

The Blizzard come back is real!

I tried it twice, failed both times, realized I wasn’t having fun trying, and bounced! Rogue set not worth, I’ll just farm mythic tomb if I want it.

Same. I’m currently using my Weapon transmog for the old mage tower. So are most of my alts. I have zero reason to do the new one.

At least 98%, yeah.

VIEWPOINT ONE
-This agrees with my existing prejudices so I support it wholeheartedly! AND YOUR AN IDIOT IF YOU DISAGREE!

VIEWPOINT TWO
-This disagrees with my existing prejudices so this website is a complete insult to my existence! AND YOUR AN IDIOT IF YOU DISAGREE!

My viewpoint:
If only 3% of all accounts have it LOL @ blizzard design team. You made so many of your remaining players hate you over this.

If only 3% of those attempting it have it LOL @ blizzard design team. You made content so uninviting that many players won’t waste time doing it in a content drought.

Yup, it’s already bad enough we have someone in here claiming the website is bad because it uses Armory which is apparently bad (according to the poster).

That doesn’t take from the total wow pop. I’m guessing thats on addon? Because not everyone uses addons.

If anyone want’s to invest the time and thinks the website is a sham, you could just doublecheck it yourself with the WoW API.

Or you can make a ragepost how you think it’s wrong and don’t want to spend the time to doublecheck it yourself with the WoW API.

It’s great that people love DFA until it shows data that doesn’t fit their narrative.

I don’t know if it does or not. I’m too lazy to look.

I think we all know the answer to this question is:

This mentality is laughable, but not unexpected, given how posters on this forum routinely behave.

Have you considered that more people than you think simply don’t care, or don’t feel personally insulted when something in a game goes the way they don’t like it? No? You think everyone thinks the way you do? Fascinating.

Have you considered that plenty of people may not even know the Mage Tower event is active? This isn’t like 7.2 when this was part of the content you’d already be doing. You have to go out of your way to get there.

Yes to both, in fact you quoted me on that.
