FYI the rewards are needed for the legendary crafting system.

Having the devs’ permission to take a bathroom break every half hour doesn’t change the fact that the content will have to be done as fast as possible.

The rewards you get from a roughly 30 minute play session, which lines up roughly with floor 10, which is before these debuffs even begin to kick in.

Well good news for you! Each floor doesn’t seem to take that long!

You’ll probably need to at least team up with dps, if not switch to a dps spec. The problem with soloing stuff as a tank, and them balancing to accommodate, is tanks can survive so much more than dps can.

A single floor isn’t going to take you thirty minutes, my dude.

Wow, more content where I have to play a spec I dislike to do it. Truly I am blessed by Blizz.

I remember back in 2005 being able to explore Blackrock Depths for as long as I cared, bar mobs respawning. Timers are stress. Players have the choice to inflict waiting for Bloodlust upon themselves. They won’t have a choice not to GOGOGO with a stacking debuff timer pushing up their butt.

Except they didn’t ruin it. They gave you a rest area and then added incentives to not sit around for hours waiting for CD’s.

Also, they added the ability to buy back deaths so the Terragrue won’t spawn. Thus giving you a way to get rid of the timer.

Well, that kills it for me. I cannot abide timers in games. I play to relax, not frantically trying to do things in time.

It’s not an actual timer. There’s also a rest area on every floor.

And just an FYI, this is not Blackrock Depths. This is Torghast. A roguelite.

There is no actual timer. I swear to God, are you people reading the article?

Its absolutely a timer no matter how you spin it. “Clear this floor fast enough or it’ll become too hard to actually complete!” is a timer.

Phone or kids won’t wait for me to clear a floor.

I’m sorry, what are you guys doing that’s making you take so long to clear content? Are you wanting to play hopscotch while climbing the tower of the damned?

“Clear floor 11 in less than 50 minutes or you’ll take 50% more physical damage” is… not an excruciating debuff.

I’m playing a tank.

“I have to explore every nook and cranny in a procedurally generated instance.” (Also, there’s not even that much to explore in BRD? Like - most of it’s rock textures.)

Let’s be honest here, there is no way they would be able to balance for tanks and make it fair. As a tank, at least blood dk, with my self sustain, I can solo bosses in decent level m+ keys. Something dps would never be able to do.

Yeah but you can take a break

And the “timer” is really weak as it currently stands. It’s not hurting you much.

Okay. So go to the rest area and sort your kids out.
