Hi guys, Bicepspump here. I posted some time back about completing both the DK DPS specs mage towers on trial characters. Earlier this week I managed to do the same for every mage tower, earning the mount! I thought it was a fun personal challenge and I'm very happy I finally completed it! Also, I don't have any alts so this was arguably the easiest way for me to get the mount...

Overall, I found it by far the most difficult to do the Healer and Tank challenges, even if Enhancement did pose a challenge for me personally. Both the DK DPS specs were relatively easy for me since I'm much more experienced with them, I do believe the Frost DK challenge was objectively the most difficult overall. I picked the specs simply based on others recommendations that had done the challenges already.

I used the default gear you received with the exception of dual-wield classes where I did pick up the MoP heirloom weapons. Other than that, it was lots of BFA consumables and Shadowlands enchants.

I waited to post here until I completed a video guide for each challenge, please find them at the bottom for future reference once the mage tower opens up again. You can also watch them to see how I completed the challenges but I do warn anyone knowledgable about the specs since I only had 2-5 hours experience playing them in the end.Videos GuidesTank Challenge on Trial Character - Vengeance Demon HunterFeltotem's Fall on Trial Character - Windwalker MonkHealing Challenge on Trial Character - Holy PaladinSigryn on Trial Character - Enhancement ShamanMagespear Twins on Trial Character - Frost MageArchmage Xylem on Trial Character - Frost Death KnightAgatha on Trial Character - Unholy Death KnightWowhead Discord WebhookDiscord ServerTwitterFacebook

Comment by VarusEUBiceps is POGCHAMPComment by OverdunnitTitle is misleading, and of the list only Frost DK is on the more difficult end. I would loved to have seen Havoc with no consumables on a trial for instance.Comment by ShadockTitle is misleading, and of the list only Frost DK is on the more difficult end. I would loved to have seen Havoc with no consumables on a trial for instance.Basically, He did it on every broken spec that can easily oneshots Mage Tower after doing it on his main characters. Waw, Let's give him some clap clap and move on to more interesting things, shall we ?Comment by RyderWould've been interesting if he did it without enchants / consumables and heirlooms tbh.Comment by jwdazedI wish I had these guides... let's say a week ago.Comment by PelontirGood to know, thanks for the guides Bicepspump!Comment by OlsofaTo see this get posted now, when the mage tower is down for months is just irritating and frustrating. Could've been a fun sunday challenge.Comment by Bozznabut if i believe all the pro gamers in the wowhead comments it is impossible to do it without timewalking cheese gearComment by SarikJesus, why do people always feel a need to belittle others' achievements? The guy even states that he did it as a challenge to himself and because he doesn't have many alts. I swear to God, some people these days are just incapable of being happy for others if it doesn't lead to their own gain...Comment by TiwieWell MageTower is gone for several months now... and I'd argue using a busted nonobtainable heirloom defeats the idea of "anyone can do it"
Great accomplishment and nice vids nonetheless albeit half of them are useless due to the afforementioned heirloom.
No mention on gold-spent on what amounts to temporary trial characters either, highly doubt everyone interested in the mount would be able to keep up here.Comment by ketchup2So this means we can make trial characters and get the mount if we dont' have enough toons of our own? Sounds great! and good for him.Comment by Zelionyou can clearly tell who the ones are posting in this thread that haven't got close to getting the mount yet lmfaoComment by Froudini
Mage Tower isn't about skill though. It's about farming legacy items that are overpowered thanks to the crappy scaling systemComment by Ymf17ah dammit wish I knew about this earlier, I missed out on the challenge because I thought it would be impossible with my level 50 characters.Comment by rafahells(-_-)'....Item farm isn't a skill, consumables and enchants are itens, to atempt all this you still need a main character to do all the leg work farming/buying all the old crap.....I don't get why people still belive wow is a skill base game, there is no timely dodge, or party block. to the point they had to ban people that use auto-key apps, since you could just use that for a rotation and watch tv as your character "do" things.Comment by Pandafera"MoP heirloom weapons" ...meh.
Anyway, I'll try this. Or no. Everytime I tryiedto repeat the guide videos I was just got hitkilled lol.
Did Pally tank after 300 tries, and gave up the fury warrior and druid tank around 30%.
I'm just too old and too bad in this game.
I'll wait for more nerfs to get my mount, Thank you. XDComment by skyforceI think you are missing the point he said earlier:

The videos highlight only the specs that help accomplish the achievement at an extremely easy learning curve, which then enforces the questions:

what about the other specs?

why are the other specs harder?

why is the game not balance as far as challenges go?

Could it be that blizzard should be point this out so that players understand that before jumping into a challenge?

Outlaw is more difficult and Unholy is the hardest of all those. I didn't try Feral.Comment by BicepspumpThe Agatha challenge is significantly easier as Fury, Fire, and Elemental.
