Zekvir is just brutal

No one seems to know the current cap. Probably a quiet soft cap until like 11.0.5 or something.

Oh, well. Heā€™s definitely more helpful at 30 vs 10. The difference is quite noticeable so Iā€™m looking forward to that 60 Brann because if it continues to scale like this, heā€™ll just run the delve for me. /s

soloed him on this character roughly half an hour ago. 597 ilevel 0/4 set

once i switched off felhunter and used imp instead it was a 1-shot because i was able to just cleanse the slow dot instead of interrupting every other one and having to pop a defensive for the ones i couldnā€™t interrupt

idk what was with the eggs but it felt like they randomly had twice as much health for no discernable reason

idk how iā€™m ever going to do ?? zekvir tbh. i missed the window during launch week when the tuning made it free and idk if iā€™m going to get the gear i need to make him not one-shot me before the end of the season. no raid team + no key team + pugs are a dumpster fire = why even bother gearing

at least tier 8 delves are fun i guess

Going to assume he does more damage/healing while leveled up. I looked and my Brann is only level 21 currently

I hope this is helpful.

i believe that i have seen this too many times.

the eggs get low on health then wonā€™t die. t he adds seem to frequently have a ton of health.

im a 614 shadow priest and still cannot beat him. I got four tier set bonus and had food and flask. The best I can get was about 50% of this bastardā€™s health. This fight is really unfriendly to class that lacks mobility. I saw video mage can easily get away from the frontal by their blink. This design is extremely unfair to some class. I would say it is a bad design.

Does he go past 60?

I have hime at 54

No idea. The amount of XP to get him to 60 is pretty insane, though.

?? is supposed to be difficult, it doesnā€™t need nerfs.

yea, curious are basically worthless to me now.

Shadow priest is probably the single easiest spec in the game to do this challenge on. Itā€™s been done on shadow with ilvl as low as 570. The ā€œ??ā€ Version. Not the regular one.

If you need some help working out a strategy for it then you can check this out.

Do pets with the self-cure/dispel help?

I could be wrong but I thiiink you can just remove the slow to remove the poison (so shapeshift for druid iirc?), that way you can just focus on kicking the heal.

You 100% can, but iā€™ve done it on about 3-4 different classes now where shifting wasnā€™t an option :slight_smile:

I just did it on my 579 feral druid on tier ?. I havenā€™t played much this expac. Brann is level 18. I got hit by the enfeeble thing a couple times. I didnā€™t realise I could just shapeshift out of it and make it disappear. Brann saved me, though. I donā€™t remember what trinkets I used. He was set to healer. I got it after 3 attempts. I literally never tried Zekā€™vir before then. I just unlocked him today.

Obviously I donā€™t think I can solo the next tier. I havenā€™t even unlocked it yet. But at least I understand the mechanics better.

im at 608 and my brann lv 51 I died by Zek in 2 regular hits in ?? difficultyā€¦
I give up :sob: and before Zek, I also in trouble delve at difficulty 10 with Bela, Tala combos as well. I play delves solo onlyā€¦ I respect all of you own the glyph!! they are so good!

Are you switching him to healer? The moment you start the combat he should be dropping 3 health pots instantly which is enough for his autos and the same for the rest of the fight. You can also just press your defensive lol.

He spends 80% of the fight casting, his autos are the least threatening thing in that fight.

And as paladin you make him extremely easy by just pressing freedom on his DOT spell.

the only thing that seems off is the frontal going off 1 second too fast but I got a wheelchair class so

Does that apply to the first tier or the second one? The strategy of making Brann a healer, I mean.
