By normally I meant normal torgast with the 6 floors per layer. 12 floors is about where I’ve had enough fun and time, so 18 is going to be a while before I give it a go.
edit: holy heck I cannot remember how many floor on normal. LOL I’m getting too old for this.
Why do the bolvar quests have to be time gated with no catch-up mechanic, why blizzard, just why? I want to do twisting corridors but didn’t start SL on launch week so now I have to wait
Floor 12 of layer 1 I’m currently looking at the Observer boss and I don’t understand how this is possible without a healer. The mob has 1 million HP and every spell he casts does 1/4th my HP.
last boss was hitting my holy paladin for 50k hits. and self healing. but my CD’s are 1min and 1.5min cd’s. so after they got used up… i died. repeatedly till kicked out and gotta do this all over again. so stupid. no way in hell am i going to jump back in to painfully farm 18 floors again!
Extra damage against tanks is still active. Really, just play torg on havoc, pick all blade dance and immolation aura perks and melt stuff with one click (cause immo aura is active forever and you just blade dance)
I hate that I’m penalized for taking my time and enjoying the new expansion in the first week, instead of zerging to max level so I can jump around Oribos waiting on queues.
Self: Torghast takes a while for 6 floors… 18 floors will be 3 times that. People are complaining that they are getting to 12 and 13 floors and dying. Which means a couple of lost hours with no saved progress.
Also Self: I think I will wait a bit to run Twisting Corridors.
TLDR: Torghast is a time investment. If there are bugs, incomplete NPCs and other challenges making it harder, I am not overly interested in wasting my time. I will wait to see what fixes are in place before I invest 3 times the amount of time to do the content.
Yes, you are penalized in not being able to attempt this content.
No. The people running this RIGHT NOW are basically BETA TESTING it and when you are able to run it there will likely be nerfs and changes to make it a smoother and easier experience.
Gotta say… I’m enjoying twisting corridors, only completed layer 1, gives a nice achieve, but I love the feeling of being so over powered!!, I feel like a god walking through!! I plan, if I can, do up to layer 3/4 today.
But out of all the crap shadowlands done, with timegating, loot scarcity and all that bull…
Twisted corridors is actually fun, I hope they give more cosmetics, make it the mage tower of shadowlands.
I just did it on my prot pally, and besides it being too long, it was actually kind of fun. Even with somewhat bad RNG, with so many powers, they add up. Did 50k dps on final floor 18 boss. Was also lucky and got a 1.5 min immunity to everything from anima cell off the vendor on that floor. It took about 30-40 seconds to kill the boss.
I didn’t see any placeholder cells.
A word of warning, the traps on the higher floors hurt. I had about 100k hp, and a fire trap one shot me.
The vendor floor with the speed buff + chasm chains also killed me… I hate those chains.
