I understand that, but the delves and zekvir are supposed to be the casual player’s mythics. Many of us that are not as young and healthy as the rest of the players already are not doing the majority of the difficult end game content.
I know that it is supposed to be more difficult, but there is really no work around for this if you can’t physically move as fast as you need to.

Zek’vir is the pinnacle for delvers. (And it comes in two varieties.)
Casual isn’t synonymous with bad, can also be people with not a lot of time.
(That said, fight took me 8 mins because I suck at dps.)
Since you can use arrow keys to move, can you not bind those arrow keys to spells and use mouse to move?

Are you kidding, the Max Difficulty Zekvir is a contributing facto to why I’m not playing live.
- Rep Grinds are boring
- Mythic + seems like an impossible dream to do
- Zekvir’s crazy
If it’s any consolation, I’m fully able bodied and mid 30s and I’m struggling on this fight too lol!
That being said, it’s NOT meant for everyone. It’s deliberately obtusely hard precisely for people to try and play way outside regular comfort zones.

Don’t you mean any version of WOW at all? WOW on the top end has always been difficult. And rep grinds of the past were worse.
My highest renown is like 17 or something cause it just doesn’t matter.
This is nonsense. Hardmode Zekky is certainly not queue content easy but it isnt anywhere near that exclusive and tryhardy. It isnt even on par with mage tower difficulty.
Even before the nerfs? 
That should be after the buffs. Heard it was easy first week.
This is a copout. Zekky doesn’t require zoomer on crack reflexes to handle or obscene gear or DPS requirements. Zekky is a preparation and knowledge fight first and foremost. 99.9% of wipes are incompetence.
Keep your head and be dilligent with mechanics and you’ll win. There is no enrage timer so even if Brann is the only source of DPS Zekky will eventually fall over.
You don’t need to do it if you can’t physically do it. Asking to have the fight nerfed just so you can complete it is insane. You literally know you have limitations yet you cry about them and expect everyone else to have to drop to your level of play? Not trying to be rough but come on already. Zekvir wasn’t made for the casual player with limitations or struggles with their spec gameplay
Some people got it with an OP Brann. I was not among those. Fight is doable as I did it as a tank post Brann nerf and arguably as the worst DPS tank even
Oh right, forgot about the Brann changes.
Zekvir is the end game challenge mode like Mythic raiding for solo and small groups.
It’s not supposed to be easy or achievable by everyone.
Do you mean the let me so him achievement or the glory of the delver achievement?
The former
Week 1: Very easy due to brann bugs and him being able to effectively solo it.
Week 2-3: Much much harder without brann contributing as much.
Week 4 til present: Post nerfs, dps check was halved, egg spawn interval increased, egg spawn animation added, boss hp lowered, fear cast time increased. Reductions to boss and egg HP for healers.
Ah well thats definitely gonna make it tough. Only thing I can say is just focus on avoiding the damage if you struggle with dealing damage and moving at the same time. Eventually he’ll die, even if its to the 50k dps Brann is doing.
Ding ding ding.
Right from the very start, Zekvir ?? was advertised as a difficult encounter meant to offer players a meaningful challenge. The tooltip before you enter the delve repeats this point. Blizzard has never hid the ball on this.
Nah, they browse the public API to garner that number. No addon necessary (just like raider .io uses API to get info from those not using the addon)
I said boring
