Since when did heroic dungeons get changed?

There’s already mythic and mythic+ for those who want hard content and there’s people who want to be able to do certain heroic-only dungeons for transmogs and mounts. Last time I checked, heroic was supposed to be a face roll but apparently it is not the case anymore in 2024!

So what is the point of making heroics impossible to clear? Do I need to wait until 11.0 or 12.0 to be able to solo it or find a group to face roll it? I wouldn’t have been able to get the Tazavesh mount if they had changed it in shadowlands…

wonder if its buggy or just tuned poorly.
We were being one shot by trash in a heroic the other day and that cant be right.
Not like it was some weird mechanic or something. Just bad math it looked like

With a group they are far from impossible to clear.

Heroics were just as faceroll as normal, if not more so, because everyone is 70.

It’s tuned for fresh 70’s but catch-up gear has made them a joke.

They brought them up to where M0 was, and low Mythics got a bit of a boost in difficulty.

It’s a good change imo- Heroics actually used to be semi-hard back in the day, much like how M0 is now.

I boosted a new toon to 70 on a class i barely play. I didn’t even ready icy veins or set them up properly, but ran a few normal then went to heroic and it was a faceroll. Not sure what you are even talking about.

It is faceroll… that’s actually the problem currently. Lol

There’s a vast continuum of expectations and experiences. If you’d like a good learning experience, I recommend finding some like-minded people to visit them with on a regular basis. :slight_smile:

I’m sure if you ask around, even here, you’ll probably find some people happy to run dungeons with you.

They’re tuned at the same level as old M0s, which were still laughably easy.

The fact that Blizzard tuned heroics to M0s shows their true intentions to completely get rid of casual players from the game. I’m not saying the game is too hard: if I signed up for M+ I would fully expect every mechanic to one shot me, but not in a heroic! What used to be a simple, queueable experience is now a massive wall blocking ultra casual players from being able to get some transmogs.

When heroic dungeons first came out they were tuned so if you didn’t do the mechanics and CC the mobs needed you failed the run. Personally, I hope they go back to that formula. I get tired of the dungeon sprint that seems so prevalent now days.

You guys got mythic dungeons for that. I don’t care, just don’t ruin our heroic and (presumably soon-to-be impossible) normal dungeons!

They upped the rewards of Normal and Heroic to be in line (higher actually).

Its still super easy

On that note, i ran a Heroic on my Prot Warrior (460 ilvl) and didnt realize DotI was in circulation, had 23 deaths for the run and spent most of my time.soloing trash packs waiting for people to run back

Heroic dungeons are kind of the endgame for a lot of people including myself at least until Delves are here

I rarely do dungeons or any current expansion instanced content unless there is something I really, really want from it. It is rough out there.

On an unrelated note, I’ve always wanted one of the recolours of the Legion artifact that requires completing an impossibly high mythic dungeon level for however long that appearance was made available. It’s been 4 expansions. Oh well, I guess I’ll never get it unless they somehow make mythic dungeon keys legacy, LOL

Legion remix event maybe

They changed it this week. Last week it was a faceroll where you rarely saw phase 2 on a boss. This week since reset it’s been made a lot harder, so every boss goes into phase 2, sometimes multiple times, even in a group with good ilvls. The trash takes longer to kill, does more damage, and must be pulled in smaller packs.

However, players are still going out of their way to cause chaos by pulling extra and unnecessary packs.

I noticed this yesterday after tanking a number of them. I didn’t want to start this thread, but it’s definitely a thing.

Heroics are super easy. SUPER EASY! Not sure what your problem is if the problem even exists.

The horror…

Not hating on heroics but cmon…this has to be a troll. Nobody is having issues in heroic dungeons. Don’t fall for this nonsense.
