"Man is his own star. His acts are his angels, good or ill, While his fatal shadows walk silently beside him."-Rhyme of the Primeval Paradine AFC 54
You know a community is bad when moderators lock a thread because "...this isnt the place to talk about it either seeing as it will get trolled..."
It will be an outright "I win" situation. Last time I got this power on floor one, which is either this reset or the last one (EU here, so reset will be tomorrow) at floor 6, with 6 stacks of this power, two stacks of +50% hp and damage each and whooping zero stacks of mawrat spices (the last power I got at floor 5...) my VW had a million HP. The +50% powers stack up to 3, mawrat spices is +100% hp at 50 stacks (and the power itself also stacks, though I don't know what's the limit on that one), so I still had some ways to go. In my last run I also stumbled upon some rare mob power that gave a hefty HP increase as well, but I can't recall the name right now. If you get this Warlock power at first floor by the end your VW will probably have more health than the boss and do more damage than you.
And if you're Affliction and get a few stacks of the power that allows you to spam Malefic Rupture non-stop and then get a few stacks of the power that gives you stacking bonus to Shadow Bolt/Drain Soul, where the power itself also stacks to at least 5, leading to +10000% Drain Soul damage, you will also get a Drain Soul of doom.
Fantastic.
Proper rewards, with a clear path to get to them and some effort required.
It's nice to have something to aim for, that isn't just a hand-out.
Torghast has been fun and I wanted a reason to go back in, beyond the weekly climbs.
Here it is.
Nice one!

Considering how much a pain doing regular Layer 8 runs are on my shaman, I think I'm going to wait out Twisting Corridors for awhile.
why do we have to unlock. every. single. layer. again?
and this time each layer takes 3 times as long.
Not touching it until I'm way overgeared for this, like well over 200 ilvl and/or I'll wait until closer 9.1. People also talk about it being balanced, yet it's far easier to do on some classes like lock so it sure doesn't appear to be the case. Were players asking for content designed where they can spend 2-3 hours to get wiped on the 18th floor and get nothing? Some of these Torghast bosses are such strange fights too that some anima powers will make them much harder to kill (particularly ones that increase your health, hope you don't have an end boss that heals on damage), so finding out that it was a huge mistake to pick an anima power a couple floors back is fun too.
Sucks there's no way to catch-up for the ones that fell behind during the holidays. Oh well, I expect the first layers will be easy enough with the last ones tough as nails even if you get the powers needed running solo. It'll be a test of endurance even with the broker floors. Quite the joke some class specs will meet no resistance while others have to work up a sweat to clear it though.

If you knew the candle was fire then the meal was cooked a long time ago.
I think this greatly depends on your class and the luck of powers you find. As a BM Hunter, my pet kept getting demolished. I had to keep grabbing every health boost until my pet had 150k hp at the end. That's the only way I started to regain control of my run. The 2nd boss was really tough for me. 3rd was hard too but the extra hp helped a lot. It was nowhere near the cakewalk I thought it would be for being layer 1. I'm ilvl 205 by the way. Not super high but not low by any means either.
