Going to be busy through the night so no play time. Curious if anybody has hit it yet. How is it post 12/15 patch
Wondering too since I’m busy as well lol

Dang, I’m busy as well, so hopefully, someone, at least one person would let us know.

Ironically, I’m also at work still. I’ll be testing it later tonight, 173 Ilevel BM. So far layer 6 has not be an issue for me last week, so we’ll see how the floor buffs affect layers 7 and 8.
I’m assuming if played carefully BM should still be fine assuming use of clefthoof. Unsure about SV and MM though.

I have not done torghast, but I have done the maw.
Pre-nerf I could kill an abductor before they lifted me high enough to do any falling damage.
Post nerf, they could only lift me high enough to do about 3% of my HP in falling damage.

Solo MM layer 6 today at 190, didn’t have much issue. Kill shot is far improved and is super handy. Definitely felt easier today than usual.

I soloed 7 at 184 and the updated powers were nice but with the increase in difficulty moving from 6 to 7 it was hard to tell how much better. But 100% aimed shot and 200% kill shot during that run was nice.

I fount the layer 7 to be harder than layer 8… but all the floor bosses were casters in the 7
1 Anima cell for 100% Aimed Shot? Last night I did a Layer 6. I got 3x Anima Cell power of 30% Aimed Shot Increase each… that was just 90% Aimed Shot increase. And Decayspeaker’s hp like never go down after I hit him when his damage reduction debuff goes zero. It should be 300% Aimed Shot Increase for 3x Animal cell power.
No, Necrotic Venom got buffed to 50% Aimed Shot Damage per stack and Bone Barbs got buffed to 100% Kill Shot Damage per stack.
Yeah, got 2 of them which I think will be fairly common now. Wasn’t a rare power if I remember right.
It seemed fairly rare sometimes but it was and still is a “common” power
the eye of the beast one ( Neural Pet Enhancer) got upped to 500% damage, makes the pet kinda scary if you get more than one
Finished layer 7 of upper reaches without much problem at 174. Didn’t get very good anima powers but managed to make it work with some patience and kiting of mobs after clearing around big ones to make room for myself.
Boss of Layer 7 absolutely rofl stomped my pets, so I turtled up and tried to revive them…She killed me before I could finish the revive. ilevel 175…
Layer 7 is significantly easier as bm than mm. Up to layer 6 as mm has been a breeze
Apparently I’m just bad.
I’ve been doing up to later 3 solo. Couldn’t finish a level four final boss (guy that drops green poison stuff) at 155. I got him close and I figured I needed to just improve.
I haven’t had trouble before the final bosses and enjoy them.
Last night did Upper Reaches. I’ve got my ilevel up a little. Switched to Clefthood per and have mend pet in my rotation.
I never got to the final boss. Those empowered imperial guys mopped the floor with me. I couldn’t finish floor five of layer 3!
Anima powers RNG was a factor and I felt like I had a lot fewer ones than previous ones. I explored everything.
Got him to about 10% a few times. My pet died half way though and then almost immediately after a Rez and then immediately after another Rez. I can’t seem to kill him fast enough and if I try to kite or line of sight, I still take a ton of damage.
Very demoralizing. I’m fine with struggling and learning but this just made me feel incompetent.
Oh my mistake, I did not realize that what had happened did not actually happen my mistake.
I solo’d layer 8 on my first attempt as SV.
It was challenging in a good way. Completed with not ideal anima powers.
Skill will dictate outcome, as well as gearing. If you are undergeared you simply need to get more gear first.
8 is the top tier. I think some folks expected to be able to clear the top content with no gear and brain dead gameplay.
Edit: this was in reference to the general forums; which is full of folks that barely play the game and expect blizzard to hand them rewards for doing nothing.

you know I see that a lot and each time I see it this is what I read…
“You are just a basket of mush brains with no skill and using pre patch event gear get gud.”
I mean lets be real even if you can only run the most basic of torghast you will eventually get your borrowed power so the people miffed at the situation are likely the players trying to stay with the pack, right? so its likely that they have decent gear and skills to do so.
Its not infinite torghast we are talking about here. being frank if torghast is tuned to “require” 180+ gear to stay with the pack for a borrowed power portion of the expansion seems like a problem to me, a problem not on the player end.
