So i completed the mage tower with my 2 druid tank (got 2 accounts US and EU), spent about 15 hours, around 150+ attempts (some time wasted with bad strategy). One had a few optimal legion gear, the other only shadowland gear.
I think Kruul should have an hp nerf of 5-10%, to make it less of a dps check/soft enrage type of challenge for a tank spec. As a tank, not a big fan of that type of test, but i understand its hard to create a solo challenge for tanks, as tanking is more a function in a group.
I felt i had mastered the fight in general (as much as you can master the chaos that is Kruul phase) but i had countless wipes at less than 3% Kruul. Since Kruul starts at 33%, that 3% is really 9%. That is when i get murdered by his fifth annihilation. As you do, i change trinkets and looked to maximize my dps and i eventually succeeded, but that extra 50 attempts became more annoying than fun and felt inappropriate for a tanking challenge.
To keep the integrity of the challenge it’s important to not nerf it to the point where you can kill Kruul before managing and surviving 4 annihilation, but a bit less hp so killing it before 5 annihilation is easier.
I definitely would have liked a small p1 hp nerf, just so you can get to p2 with less infernals, but this should definitely bring the challenge in line, and should make it much more reasonable for people to accomplish. Now if they would just revert the stupid casting thing.
I think what it needs is tuned down to somewhat “heroic” lvl instead of the “mythic” level where it is right now . I mean there should be a leeway if you make a mistake instead of complete annihilation . But blizz got what it wanted by telling MT is coming back so people subbed back now blizz will try some other way when they leave .
I think with all the tears shed over this they should just send everyone the skins in the mail. “You think you do, but you don’t” really does apply where the mage tower is concerned. There are a few people that are stoked for the challenge, but everyone else either doesn’t care enough to bother, or isnt good enough at the game to do it.
You mean the peoples who tried their very best and cried in the forums threatening to leave if MT comes back beccause it was ad as never returning back and because of whom the starting skins the original ones were not given in the new MT ?
This game doesnt cater to “few” and if thats hard to grasp well
Reduce the caster mobs health. Not sure about anything in phase 2. I get there every 10 tries and I get knocked off most the time lol. If that doesn’t happen, annihilate kills me.
yeah, if it was made that much easier, I would stop wanting to do it.
I don’t care about the skin, I have legion mt bear skin, i dont use it on my main druid.
I like the challenge.
Hell all these nerfs right now are upsetting me.
But if you did it once why would you do it again ? And i m sorry to sound like this but just because a few % people want it at this difficulty and the rest want it “fixed” or tuned properly (based upon thousands of posts on various forums and sites ) then its gonna happen .
