real talk, nobodys doing the raid, thats why nerfsworld content outgears 2 levels of the raid, M+ outgears the 3rd tier, and weekly vault lets you match the 4th tier of raiding, tho at this level raiding is finally the better gear source.It is not worth the effort and coordination if all one cares about is gearing up, There are other paths that have less resistance. Therefore, it makes sense to make the raiding path easier; even if it is the 3rd irrelevant tier of gearing that can largely be ignored if you do your 15s every week.
Neat, can we get some Jailer nerfs? At least to the scaling? It scales $%^&ing awfully for small numbers, and less and less of our guild shows up each week.
These came in just as we're on our 4th night of endless wipes... and almost every single one of them was due to 1 person messing up the Dark Eclipse bombs (not the same person every time, might I add)While we're a small xrealm community... only raid 2-3 nights usually... we're not braindead. But we do have a pug these days... as a lot of our regulars are just plain and simple done in with shadowlands nonsense... and I can't say I blame them.We actually finally managed to get Rygelon down tonight, a couple more wipes after this went into affect... and the difference was noticeable on the quasar fields (that extra 2 secs saving some people who may have been a little slow on moving... or if people were too quick on the quasar kills), and also on the p1 bomb soaks (meant I could actually do some damage while soaking my orb, rather than standing there with turtle on, twiddling my thumbs...)As for Dark Eclipse... frankly it shouldn't be a '1 person makes a mistake = raid wipe" mechanic. It's just so frustrating... so so so many wipes where we'd gotten a perfect first and 2 sets (of p1+2), and then 3rd set comes around and boooom... raid dead due to 1 person again. Like... I get it, I don't want loot pinata's either.. but where 1 person can maybe get distracted, or someone else panic with their bomb and take the quasar field just as you're about to use it (and then you explode instead...)Just... just no... that's not cool. Funny thing was we didn't actually see any further bombs go off after this hotfix went live... wiped a couple times just on raw damage being not quite enough (and hitting the final bang). Our kill, we had a mere 3seconds remaining on that cast... >.< But aye... these nerfs are absolutely necessary... and there's a whole bunch more coming next week (not to rygelon though...)... and I'm 100% ok with that.
Balance in this raid is wack from the get go, so an extended nerf bat wave was expected at some point.As a very recent Curved RL in a small hc group, let me get a couple of things straight:
73% holy .... ive never seen numbers like this before :O
Blizz is really trying to make me farm the heroic raid Night Fae Soulshapes during SL. I have 50+/73 farmed, still got some from Torghast (including the AV final boss ones), PvP and Timewalking Dungeons (now Cata-WoD)...
