I simply never expected anyone to account for the mechanical changes between the classes, or even for the public to catch these issues with such a small testing window.Īs I remember, not every shared challenge was tuned evenly for different classes that were able to attempt it, and a lot of them were ruined further by specific legendaries. The lack of Hellcarver talent to boost AOE damage on the Ice Shards as well as the lack of the Artifact perk that reduced Exhilaration cooldown per killing blow already makes this a horrible, if not nearly impossible experience. I can already imagine the mess that the Survival Hunter challenge will be without even play testing. I had more fun soloing the Plaguefall bosses on Heroic for the Slime mount when I was at about 210 ilvl. Playing this challenge withouth the Kyrian bonuses is a bit dull. Also, the knockback cast from the Infernals is too quick.
Only tested the 1st phase for some attempts - Velen is way too squishy, the eyes behaved strange, knocking me off even if I was facing them.
This is extremely painful without Roots of Shaldrassil which I had back in Legion. But I had expected the incoming damage to be lower since we miss all kinds of survival legendary effects. Granted, I don’t play these alts often these days. I also tried Agatha on an Outlaw Rogue (ilvl 219) and Unholy DK (ilvl 218), had the same problem with too much unavoidable damage incoming. In the case of Sigryn: When Jarl was throwing his weapons, there seemed to be no way to dodge them, which caused much of the mentionned unexpected damage. But still, I felt that there was a bit more unavoidable damage then in Legion. Only looked once into the Fire and Arcane Mage Challenges, did not get very far - probably due to wrong itemization for the specs, also not playing them for years. My best geared character was a Frost Mage (ilvl 227), and I almost got the Twins down after having to relearn the fight and especially getting used to all changes compared to Legion. Did not use Heart of Azeroth or Azerite gear, just my current equipment, which is mostly Korthia badge gear at 220 upgrade, 1 SL legendary (= a stat stick in the MT), and some drops from the World Boss in the Maw if I got any. Well I did not have much time to test, but here we go.
