So on Tuesday beat the mage tower and created the following topic. All I can say is the people on the general forums are crazy as they are already demanding it be nerfed.
Should be nerfed. Overtuned

I don’t care if they buff it so only the .1% can do it, but the way these boss fights are designed sucks. I’ve literally platinumed sekiro, bloodborne, and beaten tons of tough games out there and this and the way these are designed is just bad. It relies too much on addons, gear can bypass it, and in many ways some mechanics are a bit too punishing on some fights.
So like I said no idea why people enjoyed it so much but whatever. The rewards aren’t even good for going through this frustration.
Any priests out there the holy one just feels overturned so go disc. I recommend just putting frag bomb on belt and the fight becomes easy I did it in one attempt after doing this
I don’t mind the mage tower but it’s just not properly adjusted for the current gamestate.
Some things need tuning, others need nerfs.

Also gameplay just feels weird without the borrowed power like as holy for instance I am missing a 65% buff to flash heal or heal after using a holy word spell
I mean yeah, but I understand removing it.
WW challenge just felt stale. Only thing that changed between now and Legion was that you have to DPS the worm down to sub 40% before even entering p2 or you just die. In Legion you could just force p2 and chill.
Boring stuff.
Wait the WW one do you have to defeat Jormog the behemoth and that other guy?
Yeah, boring fight.
what is the point of doing it if you did it in legion already

No I haven’t even tried this on a monk yet. Just warrior and havoc so far. Granted I haven’t played warrior much since Legion and have no idea how its rotation works these days despite just mashing hot buttons when they pop and pushing cds. So just Agatha with terrible gear and no enchants or gems, and havoc with decent gear and no gems.
Honestly though I have no idea why they didn’t normalize everything in these challenge modes. All stats, no enchants, no gems, nothing but stats and your talents and abilities. That would focus the fights on pure skill alone.
See this is what I dont get. I really dont think there are any “easy” challenges in the mage tower. Less difficult? Maybe. For me, it didn’t feel easy at all. Maybe it’s cause I didn’t do the hunter one when the tower came out back in Legion. Only did the DK one. Also, I thought the fury warrior challenge was the “easiest” at least that’s what everyone is saying on the general forums.
mage tower is perfect the way it is imo. if people can’t do it in their gear they have 2 weeks to find cheesey strats to beat it. not everything in this game should be a handout. i’m having tons of fun progging the fights on my alts

yuuup same here. Oh and also scaling is wonky in the mage tower. I ended up using a heirloom wpn and a mish mash of legion pve gear and bfa gear mostly the leggos and the heart of azeroth necklace to beat my challenge.

gave the MT a half dozen tries
brought me back to how I sometimes felt in dark souls, minus that gameplay of DS is vastly more fun and enjoyable
I’m fine with it being hard… I’ve seen plenty of people who did it, so that means that it is possible/doable
ergo it’s simply a matter of gitting gud, the rewards are purely cosmetic anyway so completing it or not is entirely arbitrary for your progression, there’s nothing wrong with a few cosmetics being gated behind skill

those ppl u have seen that have done it have been 10/10 M SOD for 3 months…that’s not exactly what i would call good game design when the rewards outside of Gdruid are kinda trash…i;ve seen one person with the mount…and i assure u they are a crack player with multiple rank 1 parses…this is beyond overtuned…
