bugged as hell

Comment by Brotinn

Appears to be bugged when using the quest's group finder. Everyone is phased and there doesn't appear to be a way to fix it. I haven't tried it, but I'm fairly certain if you make a group on your own, not using the quest group finder, it should work properly in the meantime. If anyone has done that instead and had it work, please let me know. Edit: Just tried creating a group outside of group finder and we still had the phasing issue. Hopefully it will be fixed tomorrow/later today.

Comment by Lemistio

Sharding is broken af at this quest

Comment by Demonik2811

Phasing of this quest is broken if you group up while in the zone or near Theater of Pain.

Once you have your group, the group leader should stay near the Theater of Pain while the rest Hearth/fly to Oribos and back, this seems to reset the phasing and everyone will be in the leaders phase on return to the Theater. (remember to check WM).

Hopefully this gets fixed soon xD

Does the quest reward scale with level? Should I wait until I hit 60 before turning it in?

Comment by shimzen

I would wait with turning it in as the rewards scale and it can be quite nice to have a high ilvl weapon to start your 60 experience,
so far i've found it gives ilvl 140 at lvl 58 and ilvl 146 at lvl 59.

Comment by Amry

Basically, you'll have to fight three powerful monsters within the arena. It's most likely impossible for you to solo; however, if you're in a decent-sized server, there would probably be other people who are already fighting it, so you can join in. There doesn't seem to be a limit to the number of people who can tag it.

Comment by anhsieh

A real proof of concept for the Group Finder, this quest puts you up against 3 of 7 possible bosses:

Azmogal
Xantuth the Blighted
Devmorta
Unbreakable Urtz
Mistress Dyrax
Ti'or
Sabriel the Bonecleaver (requires Necrolords Covenant member, see below)

These bosses are all objectives of the achievement Bloodsport. Sabriel the Bonecleaver is an objective of Adventurer of Maldraxxus, and Devmorta, Mistress Dyrax and Ti'or are objectives of the Bet On Yourself series of quests.

There doesn't seem to be a limit to how many people can tag each boss, although there have been a couple reports of their HP scaling to the number of tags. I personally created a custom group in the Group Finder and was able to get 5 people in the same shard, but there have also been a couple mentions of this not working so well, either. Your mileage may vary!

As for Sabriel the Bonecleaver, they are a boss that can only be summoned by a member of the Necrolords Covenant. The member must have done quests up to The Seat of the Primus, and then have unlocked Anima Conductor Rank 3, at which point they should channel their Anima Conductor to the Theater of Pain. Sabriel the Bonecleaver will then spawn after Drolkrad spawns (keep killing champions until you see him), and give you a shot at Armored Bonehoof Tauralus and Bonecleaver's Skullboar for your trouble.

Comment by Ehayen

Don't stand around near the entrance after you complete the quest checking out your new gear.

The bosses inside the theater will throw AOE at you halfway to the flight master and obliterate you.

Comment by MortisDarkskull

This Quest contains and interesting Wrestlemania reference. "legends rise like cream to the top" refers to Macho Man Randy Savage's famous "cream of the crop" promo.

Comment by luxvitalis

Tried to solo this as an average geared Balance Druid. I was able to solo Xantuth and Unbreakable Urtz fairly easily by kiting around the arena using Sunfire/Moonfire then travel form or kitty sprint to make some space before unloading Wrath, Starfire and Starsurge. Slow, with a lot of quick Rejuv + Swiftmend. Got DESTROYED by Devmorta because of all the lasher adds in the arena during his fight making it impossible to kite between adds and AoE. Not sure about other bosses but whether this is soloable or not is going to depend heavily on your class and which bosses you get.

Comment by Arnvior

If you are a Mage, do not do this quest as Arcane. You will be severely limited to the few instant spells we have. The first "boss level mob" The Magma Elemental-Urtz, threw AoEs that basically followed me around. No chance to use Arcane Missiles. When my Presence of Mind was expended I was reduced to Arcane Barrage Nether Tempest and Arcane Orb. This is a fight better suited for Frost of Fire where where a Mage has more flexibility to cast on the move. Second fight was no different. The Dark Naru with the four death rays of dark energy which rotate with the mob, stand still means insta death. Azmogal.. same thing.. the fear is no joke and also throws out a ton of small AoEs, but is a bit more manageable.

Comment by pockafwye

My group successfully killed all of the opponents but got credit for none of them. Only fighting them ungrouped seems to give credit
Edited to add that the first group I was in was a raid group. Trying again with a regular 5 man group, I was able to get credit for the fights.

Comment by stoneweather

unlocking this daily seems bugged, after completing the quest chain a day ago on my current toon, it doesn't seem to unlock... i waited a day after completion, as suggested, to see if it became available, and nothing is here... i had this problem on my last toon, it just wasn't available to that toon, then one day it just became available...

Comment by DoctorPlague

Managed to solo this as a 203 rogue while I was catching up on the Shadowlands Loremaster achievement. Just avoided the boss' abilities, and kited the hell out of Azmogal when he was fel empowered.

Comment by speedster114

Sabriel is very annoying for this quest since Sabriel does not scale with character level so it is essentially impossible at low levels.

Comment by Akajry

Over the course of a few days I had absolutely zero luck even getting someone to apply to my LFG for this quest. Best thing you can do is hover around the boss at different times and hope that someone comes along to help - in my case there was about 4 or 5 of us, some from Alliance and some from Horde. A big fight ensued between us after the bosses were killed, but at least I got this damn storyline finished.
