I like wasting time on the elevator platform. Perfect for M+.

Not a fan of it going to be interesting if they make us do the squid boss or not, the goblins leading up to that will destroy in fortified weeks

Kinda? The last fight is fun.

The adds in the hallways are an abomination though.

It’s always skipped in time walking but the Mind Control boss was delightfully troll back in the day.

I haven’t been on PTR, is it available to play there? I can’t imagine Throne of Tides as an M+ dungeon without extreme reworking. Everything about it is just boring and janky and horrible. There are MUCH better cataclysm dungeons (I actually think the Stonecore could be made super fun and interesting with some of the boss and trash mechanics)

i agree there’s no way it goes live without some serious changes

elevator: lmao
bubble shield -200% haste debuff
the first boss is 3 years of immune phases
2nd boss just exists?
trash leading to mindcontrol boss literal unstoppable killing machines on fortified
im sure mindcontrol boss will scale properly with key levels (shrine of the storm flashbacks)
last boss is tons of waiting, last phase is fun though

All the waiting on the last fight is lame. Other than that, it’s fine. Little annoying if people don’t know how to interrupt though.
The air elemental dungeon is lame because it takes too long.

Not to mention how awkward the run to the first few bosses is, then taking the teleporter to the start of the dungeon for the next one (or two). It just feels messy.

I’m a wait and see what they do on that place. I’m happy to give them a benefit of the doubt considering how SBG turned out. They just need to remove the elevator and have the portal open

Big time COPIUM but they have to know how boring it is right? I mean they knew we would all complain and they’re going to surprise us with a rework and make it the best dungeon of season 3?

Current Throne problems

  1. hold-W routing.
  2. Waiting for elevator.
  3. multiple immune phases on first boss.
  4. Lots of waiting on the last boss for adds

Oof… yeah me too. Throne is just screaming Vortex Pinnacle 2.0 and I’m fine if I never run Vortex again.

Yeah if they really wanted to give us a straight line dungeon with stupid bosses they may as well went back to TBC for old old nostalgia

Blizz “modernizing” a weird fight like Neptulon’s should be interesting lol. But should be fine anyways. Chill dungeon during timewalking so I don’t really mind either way.
