Mage tower overtuned

we no longer have legendary items. Our classes have changed so much over 2 expansions and without the same borrowed powers it just makes it harder.

@Akadruid-barthilas

I can almost guarantee you a good portion of players farm the Ishkar and first boss EN trinkets if their class could use them or the Mechagon trinket and than used some dodgy setup with lower iLVL gear and OP enchants.

The duality of man. Where we no longer have our legendaries, artifacts, or whatever else, but we dont want stinky trinkets to replace them either.

@Akadruid-barthilas

here was a ban wave and all those people last time who said it was easy, where are they? Why are they not here trying to defend their precious MT and trying to stop it being nerfed? Where those people cheating and got caught now cannot defend their achievements?

You keep reiterating this point, but I don’t think you realize just how small of a number that actually is. You used that database site earlier, but (and unfortunately you’ll have to trust my word on it unless the site has a time graph) the number did not change at all post ban wave. While I never said it was easy, it’s doable. And I’m right here. Still with my book mount.

@Akadruid-barthilas

Sure you did. 100% you either cheated, cheesed or are just straight out lying. It’s the same garbage that was spouted back when MT first came back, all these people coming out of the woodwork telling us MT is easy and some even going as far as saying “I’m not that good and if I can do it so can you” and some people who had the mount didn’t have any decent achievements, no mythic raiding, no high keys, nothing.

I get it, it’s frustrating. You did some high key, you did some mythic raiding or whatever your resume is, so you have a hard time believing other people can get it done and you cannot or struggle to. It’s okay. I’m bad at pvp, so I get the frustration (my last rating was 1241 or so, if it makes you feel any better). But yes, people have done it in shadowlands gear. Plenty of evidence to suggest so. Hell, I even pulled it off as a challenge after beating a boss, though I’m sure you won’t believe me.

And I don’t do raids. I don’t do high keys (over 15). I don’t do pvp. My only claim to fame is ksm starting with shadowlands. My achievements are public, so go ahead. btw I still have my mount and will have it forever because I didn’t cheat.

Most of the really OP stuff was nerfed really early on. Exploits were removed within few days, and only one I recall is trapping an infernal, which only marginally helped anyways. Crusader? nerfed like 2 days in? The event was up for a month. BC gems? Nerfed in a week? and super difficult to actually pull off anyways (required a leveling character).

I farmed legion gear, aye. But the difference it made was quite minute to non-existent tbh. Real purpose - to save on repair costs. You’re an actual masochist to go fight in shadowlands gear and spend 500g in repairs per tries when I can just spend 20g for the whole ordeal with 1 hr of farming of legion stuff. It did help with secondaries, for sure, because hey I could pick any I want, which is a big win. Only actual OP stuff was the BC gear, which I never used, and was nerfed anyways.

You’re way overblowing the cheating and gearing aspect or whatever cope you’re inhaling.

@Akadruid-barthilas

In fact I could wager that anyone who is that good would be nice enough to want to help others and would instead want people to get the rewards rather than doing what you are doing.

I have. MT - my thoughts, tips, advice
UH mage tower - #12 by Hendrietta-the-underbog

I posted across different characters giving some tips, or used this character to help people out. I also asked for help, and got tons. I had a youtuber who posted on DK forums help me with frost. I had help from an hpal for healer challenge, whos main was in my thread above. You’re more than welcome to stalk my profile for further inquiries.

And just to throw my opinion out, there’s nothing wrong with needing gear and consumables. The idea that people should be able to outgear content because they remember legion being that way while at the same time shaming getting gear and trinket advantages is just bizarre tbh. You need gear and to push higher content, you need consumables to min-max. This is the most accessible gear has ever been for challenging content, you’re given TONS AND TONS of content with multiple tries to get your bis and you think that’s problematic WHILE complaining about a lack of borrowed power, legendaries, or missing class spells? Seriously?
