WTF is with old raid scaling?

yep…I mixed up bosses.

That’s what 2yrs afk does to a person, then again killing the same bosses every few expansions does that to ya’ too.

To add up, Mythic Tomb def feels a lot harder. I tried it myself on a 230 monk alt i had around, and i used to solo. Took a tad long but doable, but now? tried first few mythic bosses(the first 3 i used to run for mount before i gave up because it wasn’t a mount thats high on my priority list).

Wiped on Harjatan at 5% lol. Had to try again, and i killed him at same time he killed me. Before he never really dropped me below 50% on worst case scenario. While i don’t have exact hp values to compare, it does feel off. The odd bit is that tidemistress only took 20 extra seconds to die compared to before, but otherwise most of her mechanics were barely dealing any damage to me at all.

She’s trolling. Stop feeding her.

Well sometimes things change I guess. Get some gear. You have to put about zero effort into getting better than 230 gear.

Yeah, I’ve been soloing to Mistress for mount, on lower ilv toons its doable, just frustrating because of annoying mechanics and TTK.

Every 10 levels it gets easier, @277 its a joke.

I haven’t played that long, my lowest ilv toon is 227, and a tank, I don’t even bother, my priest is 254 again, don’t bother, because im to lazy to switch specs. I think my druid is 235ish, basically have it to farm mats.

Most alts I rarely play all, but 1 is over 230.

As long as I can remember, first tier didn’t make older bosses easier. It was “If I can get through mechanics maybe I can do this” scenario. it’s usually well geared, come back and practically walk through bosses like nothing.

You do realize that the raid shes talking about is 3 expansions old right?

DF is finalized already?

Pretty sad if you’re 70, ilv 230 at any rate.

Been a minute since I’ve seen someone else with Benediction and Anathema.

Nice!

Answer me this one. Why should i bother to re-gear toons to kill what i used to be able to do at ilvl 230? All for the same loot and chances a week? Come on bro, that’s not how MMOs works or should work in general.

If there’s a increase, more or better rewards should come along. Else its a complete scam because its the same stuff i was soloing just harder with no way to opt out of it and no changes to rewards to justify.

It’s like you had Optimus Prime suddenly getting his rear kicked by Starscream with zero in-story justification for it. First, OP is completely wrecking screamer’s rear with little issue. Then suddenly he gets easly defeated by Starscream even if there was no logical reason to make it possible.

Or in WoW’s case, its like when they end up buffing a mythic raid boss with no changes to rewards. Often unintentionally, but yeah. For all the criticism i’ve heard of fated raids buffing Sylvanas and Jailer, screwing over some mount farm groups, they do drop better gear now so its justified in a way. Not the case with everything else that got suddenly buffed in prepatch.

You still can.

It still takes a hot minute, 100’s of youtube videos as proof, it still takes a hot minute.

Legion, BFA, SL.

Nope still 2.

I could solo mythic raids in bfa during the 2nd raid tier.

Oh, you are serious? Yeah, nope. Tried on my mage, i despised it so much that i stopped entirely. Just because you dont struggle doesn’t mean a different class does.And mind you: its not the same across all classes. You can’t expect a cloth with almost no healing to have the same experience as a warlock with self heal and pets, or a plate DK. And having to re-gear it because of content being harder? Screw it, i am not going to re-gear to do what i was already doing just fine because Blizzard tampered with older content’s hp values with no good reason to do it(Hint: You can tamper with chromie time without affecting content thats unrelated to it).

Blizzard screwed up again. More news at 11.

One of these days Blizz will get around to fixing the problem with bosses in older content magically gaining health levels because of patch bugs. Probably 5-10 years from now, lol.

ooof

I don’t wanna hear how bad mages are, that is a terrible excuse.

DF makes 3, DF isn’t out yet.
