This is extremly dissapointing .. Having to wear old xpacs gear to be optimal because pruning made it that our classes need to rely on borrowed power that's locked away in a content that at best will reward us some recolor and a bear .... I can't understand how people are hyped up about this, I'm really trying to find what I'm missing here ..
TL:DRAs someone that successfully completed ALL these previously, they didn't mention that some Legion Legendaries were almost necessary in order to win the fights and not having them meant failure. The challenges weren't about a dps race, they were about using all your spells/skills and surviving phases that no amount of burst would help you with. There are many very good OLD guides to these that should have been linked above because Gear aside, there are macros required and legendaries and strategies.Remember, these are SOLO challenges, not like the dungeon based challenge modes were sockets and stuff were BiS, you need skills and paitence, you WILL die alot no matter your gear.
So they don't want to allow legion legendaries so people don't feel like they need to do legion content to be at an advantage but they allow items from previous expansions like all those old legendaries?Blizzard are confused.
Why is it so hard to just put something back the exact way it was back during the expansion we all paid for without time walking shenanigans? Wow, is fully entering its final death rattle.
Removing any borrowed power from the current expansion to deal with Timewalking, but allowing borrowed power from older expansions makes no sense to me. And as a player, to agree to one, but disagree on the other is sort of a hypocrite, especially if we take into account that there are rewards to be obtained and there are people that haven't been able to acquire many of the old legendaries listed above.I want to believe Blizzard is yet to tag many of those items as unusable during the Tower challenge. It makes no sense not to be able to use Legion borrowed power, but also able to use BfA's legendary cloak?
Actually most of the gear is the same as for timewalking dungs, so just pop up in the TW discord and you can ask/help building them.
