Remove EXPLODING SPORES from Delve

Please for the love of whatever you call a god remove or nerff these damn never ending spores. It is the most obnoxious game mechanic ive ever seen. Thier spawn timers are 3 seconds at best, they fly across the map to aggro then if you cant get out of the 300 foot circle you are blown across the entire damn map only for them to immediately respawn. On top of that you stack 6 to 8 of them on one small spot to where its a never ending thing.

YOU CANNOT PLAY THE DAMN GAME DUE TO NONSTOP RUNNING FROM THEM.

If you intentionally aggro the spore and make a wide circle with it chasing you , it will explode harmlessly out of range.
This is where Dk tank shines , cause you can grapnel them out of the group and clear the area , before you tank the mobs.

Pally tank isn’t too bad either if your consecration slows mobs.

100% agree, there is absolutely nothing fin about them and the respawn rates are ridiculous. For those that say use them to your advantage just no, they suck.

Please no. You don’t understand the spores. Does your class have any sort of root, stun or ability to fix something in place? Drag all the mobs to the spore, root them, then move back (I guess do that flying jump thing DH do ) and the spores will kill everything for you. FF would take 3x longer without the spores.

There are far to many in some areas to use them to your advantage as you suggest in my opinion. Far more people hate them than not.

They can be annoying, but once you learn how to Kite them they’re useful for killing enemies faster.

I love them - they make the run go so much faster by gathering up a bunch of npcs, run them to spores, cc/root it all in place - spores kill it all.

It makes being a frost mage very satisfying!

I can agree only that they are annoying on the draining mushrooms folly, but on the one where you have to rescue 10 guys, you can kill the high hp mobs in seconds with the spores. I have done that one in 3 min 30 sec at level 8 and it would be 7 or 8 min without spores.

Erm… the only annoying thing about FF is the last boss.

the spores are a non issue. Wait for them to get ready to explode then run.

You use them to kill mobs instantly. They are the best thing about delves.

I love the spores.
I use them to do huge amounts of damage on newly-capped alts and more easily clear the delve.

This. Enemies can die from them and get knocked around by them. It’s super useful and super hilarious.

man, i swear im not tryna’ be contrarian, but i like using the spores and playing a mini-game of sorts tryna’ get them to explode the mobs as I kite around them. that can be super annoying but when i’m running as ret or prot, they help break up the monotony for me.

I Just hate to say it, but someone has to
Ahem
Skill Issue if a ele shaman before the revamp can use them against the mobs everything other class/spec can

Don’t be such a left of bell curve.

Sporebombs are great. If anything, all delves should have similar mechanics that reward players for using terrain or enemy effects against other enemies.

Dungeons and Raids can also do with these types of mechanics.

I dunno. They do significant damage to the mobs that arenear them. You kite the spore till they are about to explode and watch the other mobs get wrecked.
