The Nighthold Mythic Race Progression

[Woop Woop]

no mages on botanist...

Yep, mages are weak and can't kill a boss.

That SNF post made me laugh pretty good.

Seems like Star Augur is another road block. Good times

hard to compare logs and actual data ...u know..

Blizz NEEDS to make Mythic content like this, that seriously hard. That's what Mythic should be. INSANELY difficult. Loving the race, it's neck and neck between multiple guilds! So exciting!

?

It's not like you can see anything. You just read a site that says 7/10 for 7 guilds.

They will likely need to nerf some things though. The top top guilds have gotten so far ahead on gear, playing with perfect comps perfect legendaries, everyone with 4 piece, and farming the shit out of m+ to give them great itemization. When you start getting to the guilds who don't want to wipe 500 times on every boss, and you also start to realize that those guilds aren't gonna be any more geared than Method is now, nerfs are necessary.

Why are they necessary? Why not leave it this way and if it takes guilds 4-5 months to get the gear to beat it- so be it. It would be better than letting everyone blast through Mythic in 1 month and then sit around for 8 months waiting for the next raid to come out.

Are the top guilds on a break right now. Not many kills at the last 24 hours.

[Poizo]

Not on a break, phase 3 is a brutal check, goes beyond healing fast and everyone wipes. Some of the strategies are probably solid but you also need the numbers.

You either don't raid, or are a bad raider. It's not about the gear. These guys will smash their heads against it for 500 attempts, and then between now and when you would reach the boss, or the average mythic guild, the strat will be refined. So you won't need as much gear. You use the perfect strat, and a guild with a decent amount less gear could do the same.

mythic bosses are 80% strats, 20% gear.

No break, everyone is banging on Augurs phase 3 and bouncing off it. Nothing is breaking through it seems.

they obviously havnt tried 2 healers 7 shadow priests and 7 rogues

VE fer daaaaaaaays

You mean 1 healer and 20x Pyrdaz and 20x Perfectly Preserved Cake!

It's relieving to have a roadblock boss after EN.

The majority of the players that are progressing on Star Augur already have ridiculously good gear and will be doing more damage than many players in 100-200 guilds. When the average item level in the guilds is already 902+ and M tier is 905, they are close to having near BiS outside of random bullshit titanforge with near perfectly optimized stats and trinkets with 4 set, 54 traits, and most likely BiS legos for the most part. They are also running near optimal raid set ups with 25-30 players with different classes to build perfect comps for the encounters. Progressing for a fight for 4-5 months because of DPS check to pray to RNG gods for random TF is not fun or engaging gameplay.

Yeah, that's why they do 1334324 split runs.

[Rekkal]

What if star augur is the cenarius of this tier and they one shot the other 2. That would be a very funny prank hahaha

Neither is farming a raid for 8 months. At least you have a reason to run it for a few months if there is a boss that you haven't killed yet.

Yeah, that would be ridiculous but possible :P

[Deleted]

Do you know any % of the best attempts from the guilds ? Would be nice to know
This sure is really interesting race. *Grabs popcorn*

[Shampro]

I expect Elisande to be killed faster than Star Augur maybe, she could be more of an execution boss than a gear check like Star Augur seems to be from an outsider. I do wonder if that Gul'dan Illidan phase is literally Black Temple Illidan 2.0. mechanically.

If the boss is locked behind a (theoretical) check you absolutely cannot meet until your team gets better legendaries along with all the gear they can, or a nerf, or next patch; there is 0 reason to try.

I'm not saying that's what star augur is, but star augur isn't going to last 4 months either.
