Nerf Guardian Druid mage tower

I don’t care what all the elitists say about “mage tower” is easy enough, get gud, etc., etc., This is old content and even casuals want a challenge, but not hard af for most people. It’s need more nerfs. People come to enjoy the content, not for the top 1-2% to complete mage challenges and then say “It’S sO eAsY”… Well sometimes the stuff isn’t. Any nothing makes the game fun when it’s frustratingly hard because of a missed global CD or an add that goes over to kill the NPC. More nerfs are needed, let people enjoy it. It’s a game… it’s not life. I’m sure if they published the numbers of those who completed it, it would be eye opening. It doesnt award player power - it’s just cosmetic stuff.

You really need to learn to play druid.
You should know that the man with the power of nature can bring you to the end of your life.

Why is mage tower in quotes?

Nobody is saying that. They’re saying it’s not overtuned. It’s hard, just like it’s supposed to be.

smh

Yeah…

Nobody is saying it’s so easy. You look silly dude.

People are enjoying it, but it doesn’t need nerfs. It’s not a handout. It was advertised as requiring you to “master your class.” Do that.

Would it? Would it be eye opening to confirm that what is intended to be the most difficult single player content in the game is doing its job?

Yep, it’s prestige cosmetics for people who overcome the challenge. If you won’t rise to the occasion, I’ll point you to every piece of legacy content where you can farm other cosmetics for no work at all.

Spoken like a true elitist. Old content should not be harder than current game content. Regardless how people feel. You are entitled to your opinions. Smh.

Spoken like a true casual.

“Old content shouldn’t be adjusted in time walking to recapture the difficulty it originally it had, exactly as it was advertised it would. Everything older than 6 months should be a free handout because I don’t want to think about how I play or play my spec with any proficiency at all. Competent gameplay is ElItIsT.”

So are you, even if they’re based on ignorance and laziness.

We don’t give anything about your opinions here. You want to constantly flame a casual. Go elsewhere.

And you think yours have any more value? Cute.

No, I’ll stay right here and wait for you to address any of the points you chose to ignore by hiding behind “but you’re an elitist” like that has any substance at all.

You are just putting people down in the forums. Take your elitism elsewhere. Unless you have any tips or productive comments to make. You are making yourself look like a clown. Hiding behind a keyboard waiting for people to make a comment. Seems legit toughguy.

No, I’m telling you you’re wrong, and there is a big difference. You’ll find my post on the druid tower was exceedingly positive.

Again, I’m going to stay right here, and I don’t need your permission to do it. That being said, supporting content that requires hard work isn’t elitist. You’ll notice I barely have any aotc achievement, let alone any other mythic level achievements.

I promise, that makes two of us.

Aside from the fact that you’re doing exactly this, what is the alternative? You expect me to meet you at the flagpole after school or what?

lmfao

Internet tough guy alert.

After the adjustments, it feels pretty good to me. Most of the challenges are in line.

Then no one should care about what you have to say either.

It’s not old content, it’s current content. It’s retuned and different.

I don’t think they understand this.

Old content shouldn’t be harder than it was when it was first introduced.

Some of these are tuned even more heavy handily than they were back in 7.2, the Guardian Druid one being one of them.

What does Raest still take double the time to kill than before and has triple the health of his brother, when they used to be about on par ? Why does Raest move when he never did so ?

Why does the Blood DK Variss have more health than the Prot Paladin one, when Prot Paladins put out so much more damage than Blood DKs ?

No, still a lot of things that aren’t in line.

This isn’t “old” content though, it’s revitalized content. There’s nothing wrong with bringing back old, difficult content while keeping it difficult. What’s wrong with the mage tower being hard? It’s a challenge to overcome and a goal to work towards in game. All games need these things.

I wish I had the same mind set it would make life so much easier.

If something is too hard just quit and demand it be made easier, rather than realize it’s been done by many people and it’s my own fault I can’t do it.

Blizzard should cater to me and my inability to learn and improve

We don’t value yours either, but that’s not going to stop you from sharing is it?

Well keep living inside your bubble then. I did not say anything regarding difficulty nor did I insult you in any way. All I did was throwing back things which came out of your “mouth”.

I thought it was obvious. Classes have changed a lot since legion, the target difficulty for the mage tower is different from legion, and the rules are different from legion. So, obviously, the encounters would change.

It’s mostly about raw DPS and HPS (a function of DTPS), not any substantial mechanic changes. The switch from Prot Paladin’s charge system back to Holy Power makes absolutely no difference for instance. Same pretty much for Guardian Druids. It’s fonctionaly the same encounter, everything does more damage and takes more hits to die than it did even in 7.2.

How does class changes make it so suddenly Raest has 3x more health than his brother, when in Legion he had 1.2x ?

That has nothing to do with classes, let’s stop being completely disingenuous.

Could just not do it, it’s just a cosmetic reward. It’s clearly accessible if someone puts the time and effort into it.
