Tomb of Sargeras Progression Thread

I guess since i have max post per page it shows 144 for me :/

I didn't know you could do that. :/

I'm better off with it this way though, I have a routine of reading a couple pages and then doing some work before I come back. If I had more posts on a page I'd have to rethink my routine and I don't come to work to think.

[SinR]

Shitposts? in MY Progression Thread???

It's more likely than you think...

[Deleted]

Not gonna lie, the boss seems super funny to progress on. A shame its first version was badly tuned.
Can't wait to see the crazy shit Blizzard has created in the later phases (second intermission anyone?)

[Deleted]

This is p.287.

You can set it to be 40 posts per page, and with that its page 144

I love how these people are enjoying themselves

[BiggestNoob]

I don't even know what to think about that. This fight seems like a meme / troll from the developers, or just very poorly designed and hasn't been improved since it was on a white board and then implemented in < 20 minutes?

"Imagine if we just bounced players around constantly while half of the raid has an incredibly heavy DoT effect on them, then we require the other half of the raid get the DoT while requiring the half of the raid that already has the DoT take an enormous burst of damage, then we continue knocking them around the platform. I bet these raiders won't be able to deal with that!"

???? seems like a pretty hard job, just coming up with stupid shit constantly

Any fight sound stupid when you describe it like this. When in truth it's just a series of mechanics you have to rotate through, like any other fight.

What if we had this boss where he applied marks to the raid that knocked everyone back, and made it so they took 10x from any other mark. Then we made it so that the tanks got pushed back at the same time, oh and then we can add a dance mechanic to it so they have to do it while dancing. Hmm... this isn't quite enough were going to add infernals that cannot be stacked or they wipe the raid so people must be spread out. Also these seeker orbs that charge people super fast and try to kill them. Seems good.

1. The knockback was decreased by # of people soaking and you could control where you went, so it was clear how you deal with it and it wasn't a thing that prevented you from doing other mechanics. This was almost entirely personal responsibility and people could solo soak these.

2. The tank pushback was a non-issue if you swapped to targets, and didn't overlap if your raid didn't just ignore it.

3. The infernals came in and did an AoE so you were already spread, and their healing was a non-issue if people prioritized the one closest to them. It definitely wasn't a giant clusterfuck unless your raid was totally retarded.

4. The seeker orbs were incredibly slow and died in like 2 GCDs. If you got hit by these it's because the entire raid ignored them and they had like 10 seconds to speed up.

What's going on in this fight was nothing like Archimonde. You weren't being pingponged around the map so you can't do mechanics while needing to deal with heavy DoT effects and positioning for soaks (both a line and shit on the ground), requiring near constant movement. You had so much time to get in your groups for the knockback, you had so much time to dodge shit on the ground (and it didn't really overlap ever with things you couldn't deal with), you had so much room to drop orbs, you had so much time to kill stars, you had so much time to kill infernals. It actually seemed like they put some thought into the idea that you'd actually do the mechanics.

This just seems like they took an idea for the fight, threw it into the encounter, then ignored it until Method got to it and decided to start polishing it then, and even now it looks like a giant clusterfuck of terrible design.

Yeah can't imagine what was the first unnerfed version

[Artemol]

Not naming names, theres one guy in method who didnt disable his "status" return whispers, seems like they're wiping on 39% doesn't say much more than that

[Shammyrock]

that is hilarious. I hope KJ never gets nerfed
