Operation Mechagon: Dungeon Overtuned!

Community General Discussion

First go through was rough, but once we knew what to CC on trash it was a cake walk.

First 4 bosses were rather challenging, but the last 4 were pretty easy.

The dungeon is fine. Doing it once on my main, and another time on an alt. The alt run was easy since we knew what was up and what to CC doing trash.

The tuning of a Mythic+ 7 or +8 it feels like thats the case.

For Hard mode yes there are hard mode triggers. For example the first 4 bosses, if you defeat the first 3 bosses in the order of where the HK-8 areal unit is above them the 4th boss will have a hard mode activated.

Instead of Tank buster MK1 you will be fighting Tank Buster MK2 which does more damage. The adds are faster, etc.

There are other hard modes for other bosses but this is the only one I know full details on.

127

Well, it looks like I won’t be doing this dungeon. Unless they release a heroic version of it.

it wasn’t until I went into my bigwigs settings to colour code things that I realised how simple most of the fights are. You pretty much summed up everything there.

And this sentence proves you are a troll who should’ve been banned from the forums a long time ago.

Loads of complexity for a dungeon is certainly overtuning.

135

God forbid they add some difficulty to the expansion…

136

Dungeon is under tuned, I felt so underwhelmed clearing this place, I did it in a pug and within a hour. I thought it was going to be as tough as Return to Kara. Sad to think they’ll nerf this place one more time and slap keystones all over it.

If you really think this place is hard then… yikes.

137

Go do Heroic shattered halls or Shadowlabs then complain.

That place is a joke, use interupts cc and line of sight.
Obey the boss mechanics i.e dodge stuff interupt move when you’re supposed to.

Dont just try and aoe everything and you’ll be fine.

Yea I enjoyed the challenge week 1 with lower gear and without knowing any mechanics because my group didn’t read the journal or watch any videos etc

It felt like a 5 man raid and was great but now it is was way too easy.
