Comment by smoereFun detectedComment by KalamordisFair enough, makes sense.

The minibosses had like 4.4mil hp (when only one person is there) could be solo'd in under 20secs incredibly easily, not giving others a chance to get there to get the currency. Havent seen what the hp increase is, but assuming is hp only can still be solo'd if no ones there just takes a bit longer to give others a chance.

Glad they nerfed the other annoying objectives as well, was a few people just wouldnt touch cos was tedious.Comment by AthenamonicaFinal bosses still have way too much health. It feels like we are being given more busy work to do for the same rewards, when each event cycle should have been made more snappy and rewarding so that people can gear up and level up through the event.Comment by merex760People are starting to skip the minibosses in favor of the other events now. So in classic Blizzard fashion, I think they were too heavy-handed with that hp buff.Comment by GalenarNo surprise they cut that slip and slide beer one's objective in half. It was so tedious and time consuming I'd started ignoring it entirely.Comment by KrogoSo glad they buffed Hogger. He was only taking 5 mins to kill because all the people tagging and doing no damage.Comment by Twilightdawn978Small burn might refer to the objective to burn corpses "Both living and dead" in dragonblight, to the northeast of wyrmrest templeComment by g33kyPeople are starting to skip the minibosses in favor of the other events now.

It's just a pre patch event FOR ALTS!Comment by LuckyPedThis is a good change, a mini boss dying too fast mean people dont have time to fly to it and Tag it !
Why do you think the big boss have a Shield before it is targetable ?
It's so people have enough time to get there and tag it !

this is a great change for people that just want to enjoy the event without feeling like they on a speed run to quickly fly around orbs and find the mini boss one and tag the mini boss, all before someone kill it in 20 sec xDComment by FLambdaIt took til 17 after to get to the first boss of the hour just now, stuff is way too thick now.Comment by TernelBecause mindlessly just taking down a beefier miniboss is so fun...

Do the end bosses still give the 1400 memories?Comment by akaRavenBecause mindlessly just taking down a beefier miniboss is so fun...

Do the end bosses still give the 1400 memories?Comment by CorvoRossoI think you're playing on a special server or something then. I'm still highly focusing the mini bosses, and they are still falling over relatively fast compared to any of the other objectives.This is a good change, a mini boss dying too fast mean people dont have time to fly to it and Tag it !

The second Hogger objective is the stupid thing where you need to launch yourself into the air with tornadoes and collect flying letters as you fall. They're far enough apart you can maybe get one letter each time. Even if several people are doing it, in my experience the best case scenario is that his shield goes down very shortly before the next quest appears and raises it again, which means It's probably faster to kill him while just ignoring that quest and subsequent ones and leaving the shield up.Comment by howlingsunrisenerfing 'other objectives' is a good decision, but i feel the buff to health is unnecessary. it is possible to kill the mini bosses multiple times in one event, and multiple multiple times over one cycle. i play on a reasonably low pop server during low pop hours. i'm testing this now and killing these bosses is taking, what feels like, an unreasonable amount of time. it begins to feel extremely boring.Comment by GabrijelCznot exactly a well-balanced change we killed Hogger for about 5 min (Hogger doesn't need to increase HP with his shield) but Stitches was killed in 1 min and Hakkar fell in about 2-3 min with the same number of people of course
other memories take from 1 to 3 minutes depending on the number of people, not to mention that some memories are avoided by most people
for the idea of carrying beer and kissing frogs (this is only what I saw, maybe others had people who finished these memories)
wouldn't it be better to simply speed up the reset of the given memory and increase the number of memories that can be on the map at once
those who only want to do q will still mainly focus on mini boss memories and simple kills for %Comment by Trelani10No surprise they cut that slip and slide beer one's objective in half.
