WTF is with old raid scaling?

Things should become easier once you hit 70.

Still though, it shouldn’t take this long.

I think a geared toon should be able to do a good chunk of 1 xpac back and any max level toon can go 2 xpacs back.

If they have to do something silly like add a “legacy raid dominion” buff to give us all 30% extra damage until they can figure it out, then do it. I am not sure what the problem is? Is it “raw gold farm”, because they can nerf the amount items sell for like they usually do.

On beta at level cap it isn’t that much easier. They need to adjust scaling badly lol.
:joy:

One of the other posters here has actually listed some time to kill numbers for mythic Goroth in ToS. Level 60 in 9.3 was significantly faster than level 60 in 10.0, and get this, also significantly faster than level 70 in 10.0. Even with full raid gear from the first DF raid, it’s slower to kill mythic legion bosses.

I see your point, but this is also the goalpost shifting that has been happening since SL launch. People had been saying the same stuff “wait until we get conduits” “wait until we have gear” “wait until 9.x” Legion should have been one shottable at the start, and now Legion is HARDER in DF at 70.

Blizzard seems to have changed their stance without any announcement - you are no longer allowed to easily solo old content. That’s where I got a lot of my enjoyment, so I cancelled my subs yesterday.

I thought it was their goal to make the older (recent older) raids something you had to think about at least somewhat instead of just blasting AOE. Didn’t someone at blizz actually say they didn’t want old raids to be spamming one button anymore?

Post proof or stop posting the lie.

Sorry to hear the news but it seems BlizZard is hoping this blows over. But I think with many players returning with DF launch more and more people will take notice that scaling in leveling dungeons and old content is way off.

Good. Bosses with good rewards shouldn’t fall over

SUPPOSEDLY, it has been fixed with today’s hotfixes for Legion raids. But it seems nobody is really noticing faster kills. In fact, its the exact opposite in some cases. Need more data to be able to confirm, however.

I’ll log in on live to check, already deleted beta since I assumed nothing was gonna change.

Okay just checked and nothing changed for me so i mean yeah…

Found what you are referring to and yeah they are trying to gaslight everyone.

The amount of bootlicking in this thread is what caused covid to spread like wildfire.

I KNEW BLIZZARD WAS BEHIND COVID THIS WHOLE TIME! All part of their master plan to make us sub longer with busted old content and like it.

It should be fixed by now since there was a hotfix list stating it.

:rofl: :rofl:

That’s a good one.

I wasn’t making nor telling a joke.

Dungeons and Raids

  • Enemy difficulty has been adjusted to increase relative player power in all Legion raid encounters.

I just tested, it’s the same. Level 60s get exactly 10x damage boost, I have no idea what they even claimed to fix.

Tried my 240ilvl warlock, shadow bolt normally hits ~1600 and hits legion bosses for 16,000

Did mythic Goroth:

  • 1min 40sec
  • I received 138k damage (???)

Goroth has 5.25m health, so the HP feels like 525k with a 10x boost.

Level 60 regular mobs have 30-50k hp.

yeah, mythic raid gear in 10.1 minimal, maybe. not a mythic raider…well 10.3.

this got tolerable for me 9.3 in the 268/275 pvp gear I had on chars.

Ion got me once with SL runs. Not twice however in Df. really looking at rogue/hunter runs in df till sub dies feb. Neither version for now has me planning on another time block buy.

End list. 2 chars. for the pvp really. maybe dk if motivated.

this bait to hit current raid is not working with me. I don’t live for raid. Nor do I see the point to needing top gear to kill 5 year old content.

I definitely feel it being faster today then yesterday, on Mistress Sassz’ine it took me like 5 minutes but today it only took like 3.
9 mil health btw
WoD has a 100x dmg buff and Legion only has 10x lmao

Tried some of the Legion raids and while I couldn’t make out any difference in ToS or Antorus, where bosses still take a huge amount of time, I rushed through Nighthold like never before. After sneezing a few times at the first boss so he fell to the floor after a few moments, I thought at first “Oh crap, it’s still on Normal or Heroic, isn’t it”, but… no, Mythic. Managed to kill Spellblade Aluriel before the Beyblade add, while before I was always kicked around through the court.
It’s just a bit odd that I’m just experiencing this in Nighthold and the other raids seem unchanged.
