WOTLK Timewalking scaling issues

Adding to the pile. HoL: Arc Wield wrecked folks in the group, we only managed with run-backs from the entrance (boss can be kited to it). Can’t get passed Ionar. So I can’t even imagine what the poison spear and mob whirl wind is heh.

Nexus the treants are just one shotting folks. Keristrasza intense cold one stack is a near one-shot; manageable until crystal chains heh.

My experience from this week - 1/9/24:

HOL - impossible to complete, back to back wipes are the opposite of fun
Nexus - treants and Keristraza one-shotting players and hunter pets
Utgarde Pinnacle - no problems
Azjol-Nerub - no problems
Gundrak - no problems
Forge of Souls - no problems

I question the logic of being scaled to ilvl 75 when my current ilvl is 462, so should at least be ilvl 100 when squished.

Thank god its just bugged. Im new to the game and I was getting one shot in what felt like every timewalking dungeon. I thought I was just bad

Take comfort, friend. Timewalking has never been balanced properly and will in all likelihood never be.

They are totally nerfed from where they were a few years ago. First they were easy, then Blizzard made them hard and now they are easy again.

Except - as evidenced by this thread - when they are completely broken.

Chicken and wild rice with mushrooms… Home made, makes wonderful leftovers!

We couldn’t get past 3rd boss in HOL.

Oooooo, that sounds delish, bubba!

I might end up cooking some ramen in a bit – got some good miso ramen in packets, which I am saving for about 4 PM EST (I usually do intermittent fasting/portion control where I eat a meal once every 4 hours, if not more).

Also, I just logged back into my Orc DK – anyone know if there’s any progress about a hotfix?

It is a possible sign they are messing with old dungeons with plans on converting them to M+ for season 4.

Same in another HoL group I was just in. While trying and dying, another party member said his guildie was having the same issues in Nex. Boss hits are instant death.

Can confirm. HoL deletes tanks, dps, healers … pretty much everyone

Jumping into the pile, Nexus is very much broken. Blew every CD and then some and still lost my tank to… a little tree. Feels bad man. The last boss is also instant death to the person that doesn’t get dispelled. Gonna hold off on tw this week unless they hotfix it.

Oh and I had leftover homemade chicken pot pie. So good.

well this sucks… I have spent the last 2 weeks leveling a few characters to 60 so i can skip the entire dragonflight and level to 70 in timewalking wich is so much nicer and we only have 7 days. Come on! If you cant fix it for this week may i recommend you up to xp gain for dragonflight dungeons to be the same as for timewalking for this week?

Que times have doubled now. Been sitting waiting for 20 mins.

LFG keeps putting you into HOL as well, I’ve left the dungeon 3 times with 2 desserter debuffs.

Can confirm this is broken. HoL 1st and especially 3rd bosses are messed up. We quit on Ionar. I played this during WOTLK and it was no where near like this. I’ve never even played a mythic that was this ridiculous. There is absolutely no way to beat Ionar except with lucky and high DPS because he can one shot the tank (me) even with damage mitigation up.

Earlier today I experienced the same problem. People were getting one shot left and right in Halls of Lightning. But I just ran it again and didn’t have any problems. Cautiously optimistic they have fixed it already.
