🍄 Today's Dragon of Nightmare is Emeriss, the Mushroom Dragon

That’s what I do. Might as well sit back and enjoy the show.

It was beautiful.

I wish the other bosses were this overtuned because I love the chaos and success despite it.

Just tanked him, died 3 times, raid group with no coordination, and ya pretty much should a had a mythic and voice run group to have chance on it.

Got nothing for doing it

/sigh

You say that like pain is a bad thing, something to be avoided. Embrace it, feel it. Revel in the ecstasy of physical sensation my luminous lynx.

Other holiday bosses:
LFG queue (key feature is no travel time there or back.)
Typically completable in 2-3 minutes
Very, very tiny fail rate (I saw one wipe in over 200 horseman attempts)
Few if any forum complaints about there being anything wrong with that approach (although somehow there’s always someone complaining about their group was AFK or wrong spec even though they still downed boss just fine.)

That seems like the right model, particularly for players who want to run a bunch of alts through the holiday content some of whom may hardly ever get played at other times.

The anniversary approach here is not an improvement in any regard.

This is Blizzard’s way of paying us back for all the dislikes on DI trailer.

This boss has always been a Nightmare, I wish he wasnt so insane and spawned less mushrooms and they werent so difficult to destroy.

Of course they didn’t, they just have to white knight for blizzard to feel special.

100+ people aren’t supposed to fight her at once.

Her mechanics make her an anti-zerg boss.

Good job on this boss Blizzard. Give yourself a hand…

Emeriss is nothing like it was back in Vanilla. An overtuned fight pushed out without any testing. All for a chance at 350 gear… lol

Don’t worry guys. It’s just beta

They should limit how many mushrooms pop. I did this content in Vanilla and I honestly don’t remember seeing the WHOLE AREA all mushrooms back then.

Also, it is pretty funny that we get 30-35g as a reward (who gets loot these days?) and the repair bills are like 100-300g.

If it wasn’t for the 50 timewalking badges, I wouldn’t be doing this daily.

I probably won’t be downing this today, but I remember trying to do world dragons I think in BC, and they were just about as difficult so this is fine

I didn’t even get to hit the boss more than a couple times. Spent 15 mins corpse running.

And the best part? We get 35 gold. Not even enough to cover the repair bill.

Coming soon to a Classic WoW near you … people complaining about how hard it is.

I never knew there was an anniversary event (World Boss as a dragon) is this new this year or always been around? Hopefully the gear is good in regards to level and RNG doesnt make it a grind. When is it not ? LOL :rofl::face_with_raised_eyebrow::crazy_face:

Hooray, now I know what sort of pain and repair bills I have to look forward to later!
