Nightfall Scenario Performance Improvements Now Live

Posted 2025/04/24 at 4:58 PM by Squishei

Over the last hour, we’ve implemented performance improvements to the Nightfall scenario that are aimed at addressing issues with it starting and progressing.

These improvements may not take effect immediately on all realms, and we will continue to monitor this very closely.

Comment by ChaxtonThe real problem is not being able to tag things in time, leading to rarely not getting 100% on the contribution bar. Sure, they (hopefully) fixed the things that shouldn't have been released in such a broken state, but the biggest issue is not getting credit. Sometimes your server just pops off and people kill stuff before your attacks register, making you just as useless as an AFK player. The fact that you get rep with each of the three reward chests means that if you miss a chest, you missed rep. Granted, the rep is pointless unless you're desperate for one of the cosmetics, but it's still a problem. I don't care if it's an anti-AFK measure; people who try and fail because of others killing too fast is not a good thing.

Thankfully I can be a pest and just AoE constantly with multi shot. Haven't missed 100% yet as a result, but I've come close.Comment by SeniaaThe real problem is not being able to tag things in time, leading to rarely not getting 100% on the contribution bar.

And YET AGAIN, the kill on the Sureki Champion was not credited. Secons day running. I spent several hours waiting on it after this happened yesterday - and he simple failed to show up.

Today being a new day, and 'hopes' of a fix..... but nothing.

I mean, it's not like this should be broken in the first place, but to see people pn the mount when you can't even complete it.....Comment by missy853I bet the new cash grab mount in the shop isn't bugged like this event is.Comment by Civil4794oh so "Performance Improvements" is now = completely bugged broken ruined. lmao just say it didnt work and now it should(emphasis on should)Comment by GetwastedWHAT DOES THIS EVEN MEAN?Comment by bearmaxit's still broken but I also think progress should be area-wide because the lag gets so bad it's hard to fill the bars on servers where it's working and lots of raid groups are on....so.....100% bars are hard.Comment by bearmaxit's still broken but I also think progress should be area-wide because the lag gets so bad it's hard to fill the bars on servers where it's working and lots of raid groups are on....so.....100% bars are hard.Comment by markdallHooray we can do our 100th fill up the bar event now!Comment by xstaindxIt seems that to fix the issues they implemented a DPS Shrink on teh mobs. lol. i noticed i was only doing 400K DPS at ilvl 668, others were doing similar dmg.Comment by Nazy3Unsubbed account here. Thank you all for the ~~beta~~ ~~alpha~~ live testing.Comment by TribuneI assume this event is supposed to work like time rifts, theatre etc where you are given tasks... I have completed it several times - never had any task offered.Comment by NossieUnsubbed account here. Thank you all for the ~~beta~~ ~~alpha~~ live testing.Comment by SkhazyI went in expecting an experience like Time Rifts from DF (which I liked and had fun) just to find an extremely undercooked event. Very disappointing. It's just an open field with a few mobs that die in 1-2 hits, no objectives at all.Comment by SarghWho cares, ppl are done with these bull#$%^ blizz devs. Subs dropping is the only thing that matters and then maybe game will see some change.Comment by ReciTerokkarStill not working on EU realms. WTF! It has been three days and the only new content they added is not working.Comment by TheGoldenElmI assume this event is supposed to work like time rifts, theatre etc where you are given tasks... I have completed it several times - never had any task offered.Comment by EighjanDoes this mean the Event actually STARTS, now...?

As for the detractors, they're p***ing in the wrong pond if they think anything they say here will add fuel to change...

The GAME is OK & I like playing it... it's the objectionable portions of the community that are doing the most damage to player morale, like they want the game to be deleted from existence so they can refocus their ire on Blizzard for deleting a game they, themselves, don't like playing at a psychopathic level.Comment by leyhunterThis didn't fix #$%^, the UI is STILL broken-- rewards bar is missing and the objectives still are not showing properly. How hard is it to make a functional event, Blizzard?
