Bit off topic, but does scaling you up means you can’t use azeroth necklace shadowmourne, that type of stuff?
OH GOOD! im gonna get my blades of AZINOTH THEN!

It’s a little early to say that these are people doing it because they find it entertaining rather than to grab the rewards and get the heck out.
Guess it’s time to dust off a level 10 tank.

I noticed that the quest to kill Illidan for the Heroic cache was not being offered by the NPC in Shatt. Was the quest removed, or is it bugged for me?
This is likely because, as the enemies scaled up to our level, so did their haste, which I’m assuming how they’re coded, makes them cast their abilities more often.
I’m not sure. It may be out at the fairgrounds now for the anniversary.

And they doubled down on this design for…some bizarre reason. More CCs? too bad if you are tanking and get slapped with those.
The changed them, and rather than doing good changes, they doubled down on already dated and annoying tendencies to a even bigger degree. They go absolutely nuts with CCs now, which isn’t fun or engaging imho.
PTR is there as free advertising and nothing else lol.
But harder than HEROICS? jeez…
Basically a f you to you if you tank and want to go faster than geriatric pace. Okay, you can then have your vanilla-esque dungeons. I won’t tank them because its not fun and its unrewarding.
100% agree.
Do it, because odds are BT TW is gonna get hotfixed by tomorrow lmao.
Yep, you will melt mobs at that level. Funny how scaling works isn’t it?
That…actually makes sense. God, you’d think PTR is useful for SOMETHING instead of just free advertisement…

You can but its basically useless because if your lvl 80, the enemies will be as hard as you needing LFR tier from this expansion. soo ilvl 300 gear and below wont do any dmg.
thats basically the change devs did for timewalking, as it used to be cheesed by people farming timewalking sets. I honestly thought it added flavor to the game…but NO FUN ZONE! I guess.

How it’s treated and its actual intended purpose are two different things, though.

Well that makes me very sad…
People like me spent years farming time walking sets on alts. Believe me, this is 100’s maybe even 1000’s of hours gone down the drain for many people.

Yeah I have a set too, with sockets, azerite traits, the work. Is this change permanent or only for the anniversary?

keep it, It might be changed back with enough protest from players.

BC TW is the worst for the interrupts and cc with zero dr. They must have applied their new scaling to older Timewalkings without changing any of the abilities. I got hit for 6mil because a lower level was in the group. I decided that dungeon wouldnt be worth it, I’ll eat the 30m.

The change with the scaling has been like this since the patch before Dragon flight. Where the level 10-11 can kill everything quick.
yeah I made a lvl 10 twink this expansion hes been dominating.
Shattered Halls was always a hard dungeon that requires CC unless you were in full t4/t5

It seems to be broken though, among others.
Someone above noted how it seems to be more like scaling messed up spell cooldowns and stuff, resulting in CCs and healing spells happening far more often than they normally should.
I suspect internal GCDs and the scaling of the spells themselves is messed up since the scaling tech they applied is affecting stuff that was never meant to be scaled in the first place. That would explain 6M hits on tanks who don’t even have the hp to survive it or CC/healing spells from Mana Tombs and Shattered Halls happening far, far more often than they should.
Oh no. You have to adapt, think and maybe click more than one button. The madness!

i saw some video of a guy that made a warrior with some key pieces of gears and triple slotted haste gems and just did the whirly blades move thru dungeons (exp locked at 10) and its funny as heck watching him zoom zoom fast with his kill a mob gain movement speed
