Can we get whoever made this fix to do something about Mythic Eonar while we’re fixing things from old raids?

Hoping we get a more substantial mythic Legion raid nerf as a Winter Veil gift this year.

Why are you so happy?

Because tank specs ruin arena and don’t belong in there.

When’s the hotfix to undo yalls dumb shadow buffs to mobs in Mage Tower gonna happen? It was already challenging in PTR from what I saw and then yall decided to make it more dificult than mythic raiding for some stupid freaking reason

How about a hotfix to the Timewlaking event?

Very few specs are showing success, some specs showing 0 success at all.

A fix for this mage tower is needed, like now. I’m not saying it needs to be a breeze, but cmonnnnnnn.

More than anything their radio silence on the sheer outcry on this is telling that they give less then two shakes or a rat’s back end about the players at this point

I would say a 10% across-the-board boss health nerf and buffing the “friendly” NPC health by about 30% would suffice for the MT scenarios of most classes.

NPCs “suddenly” getting 1-2 shotted midfight just isn’t very forgiving for the average casual player (who might be out of position, miss an interrupt, etc). And because a single “allied” NPC dying automatically ends your attempt - even if you played boss mechanics perfectly - it really seems like friendly NPC health is undertuned relative to the incoming damage.

I remember these encounters had more leeway/room for mistakes during Legion, this 9.1.5 “you made literally ONE mistake during a 6-8 minute fight?? you lose!” design is not very casualy-friendly at all :laughing:

DECEMBER 8, 2021

Dungeons and Raids

  • Timewalking
    • Mage Tower
      • Death and Decay will no longer grant the Death’s Due on-hit effects for Night Fae Death Knights.
      • Fixed an issue that allowed Survival Hunters to trivialize the Xylem encounter.
  • Mythic+ Affixes
    • Infernal (Timeworn Mythic+)
      • Players can now have more than one instance of Infernal Core active.

So…stuff is currently way overly hard for people…and the only change you do is to make it harder for NF DK and Surv Hunters?

Are yall bloody well daft? God, just rename the game World of Wildstar at this point ffs.

So no changes to the Ones that were actually problematic or having totems spawning in the floor during the blood totem encounter, but hey you nailed it here… i am all for making it difficult but bugged is a different story. considering this is the first content(recycled) since June and it has come out as a bugged over-tuned mess shows a lack of care and general lack of leadership.
