And just like that, nobody ran Timewalking dungeons anymore.

Iâll tell you a secret: They kept to the design philosophy of non-mythic people being stuck in greens. They just hid it with scaling. To feel powerful in timewalking youâll have to be in mythic gear.
Honestly I run TW to level alts or get the loot box from the quest so I can add another pair of bracers to my collection.
Only tricky part is leveling in dungeons can kill. Going from DF levels to TWW levels before getting gear (went from 10 to 73 without getting boots, legs, chest, bracers, or helm) means a sudden spike in incoming damage that will likely reach near one-shot levels.
That is pretty much the only real downside I encountered but being able to gain 2-5 levels per dungeon until 70+ is always bound to have gearing trouble if you only use dungeons.
is this why TW queues are trash atm?
Oh hai Kaivax,
I was wondering if anyone reported that the timewalking quest does not show up on toons that completed it last week. You can do a âQuest Completed Scriptâ and it comes up as false, that I did not complete the quest. But I cannot get the quest for this week.

timewalking isnât supposed to be a challenge for the gear it rewards. itâs supposed to be a cakewalk for bottom of the barrel gearing.
And all they succeeded at doing was alienating a big chunk of the TW community, the change to scaling up rather than down pretty much gutted the people who had built sets for doing it.
Now they buff it making it an even bigger chore but as a bonus scaling below 70 is still messed up and after 70 if you dont have 590 gear you get globaled because all the mobs are scaled for mythic gear wearing players.
All my leveling healers are now 70 and trying to heal a mythic geared tank in TW is exceptionally painful, I had to go buy some overpriced greens to try and boost my ilvl so the scaling didnât nuke my healers ability to heal.
It did help a little but the scaling is still wack for anyone between 70 and 80.
Anyone not having issues at 80 obviously has gear and the TW event is likely just fine for them as the scaling at 80 seems to be working for the most part, unless they try to run it in their TW set thinking its still as it used to be.

The scaling in these is just awful. My alt hit 71 and just got destroyed.

more like Trashic Timewalking amirite
because thereâs about 50 trash mobs for every 1 boss in those dungeons (kill me)
Wut? I healed 10 timewalking dungeons one on my Resto Drood, and one on my MW monk. I might have died once from a bad pull in 10 dungeons, but what are you talking about, exactly.
Wait come to think of it there was a really bad group in ZF and they decided to kill stuff we didnât need, so we went to the main boss and they didnât follow. We wiped 3 times from the stupidity⌠But we just left group and did more. It was fine!
If you had a good level 80 tank in mythic gear then yes I do believe its all on that tank and not on your healing, Ive watched level 80 Warrior tanks chain pull TW dungeons and not take any damage.
Thats far from a normal run though and the vast majority are just horrible runs for healers.
But hey at least they fixed the Wolves in TBC Timewalking dungeons.
I mentioned it in another thread, but Iâve done some TW classic dungeons from 70-73/74 on my disc priest alt without ever really healing before and I feel useless. Barely any damage being done to the group and mobs fall over like wet toilet paper. Low level tanks, max level, doesnât seem to matter. I didnât do TW before the nerf, so what were mobs getting one shot? And people are mad they have the opportunity to actually perform 1 rotation before itâs over?
You can believe I was a crap healer that the tank did ALL THE WORK on my level 73s, but thatâs not what happened. I have 9 out of 10 solid runs on TW as a healer that begs to differ from your experience. I didnât queue with a Mythic-geared Tank. And I did queue with someone who had amazing dps that blew up the mobs, because heâs a solid player.
By that note, Iâm pretty solid myself. I know my classes well enough, use mouseover macros on healing spells and have the necessary addons and skills.
Our two lowbies me as healer, he as dps almost soloâd last boss in ZF. Maybe the problem emanates with the healers complaining in this thread.
So Good Day.
Before 71 youâre golden. Once you hit that you get wrecked in the typical gear you will be in if youâre leveling in dungeons. I donât feel like visiting the AH to level him anymore. He was just for lols anyway.
yeah i think its fine they wanted to make timewalking a little more challenging i just feel like hitting 71 and getting 1 shot by trash shouldnt be a thing

The guy healing asked if my armor was broken when I single pulled a rare in ZF and got 2 shot.
