The special quest-only variants of Torghast are so ridiculously easy that a fresh 60 in leveling gear should be able to melt the entire place unless you're intentionally not taking any powers to boost yourself. The intro version of Torghast and Warden Skoldus are designed to be beaten by just about anyone who has a pulse. You're doing something very VERY wrong if that's giving you trouble.
I don't understand... we're talking about ilvl 140 and 160 characters, and there is ilvl 190 gear lying everywhere. Can't OP just do some WQs, adventure missions to get some better gear, and then try again?
I have enough of EA ruining great franchises and studios, forcing DRM and Origin on their games, releasing incomplete games only to sell day-1 DLCs or spill dozens of DLCs, and then saying it, and microtransactions, is what players want, stopping players from giving EA games poor reviews, as well as deflecting complaints with cheap PR tricks.
I'm not going to buy any game by EA as long as they continue those practices.
World quest rewards scale with you. You don't get 190 gear from WQs the moment you get to 60. Same for the adventures table. The thing here is that the OP doesn't need the gear to clear the version of Torghast he's talking about, but he does need to clear it to advance his Covenant campaign, which in turn will allow easier access to gear upgrades.
yeah, I know, but ultimately current rewards let him improve his gear, then rewards would improve, letting him to steadily progress. Can't see what's the rush with buying gear and boosts if at this point of the game it's quite easy to improve the gear in solo content

These boss mobs can be stunned and slowed and everything your cook book has to offer.
Higher ilvl should help alot, you can buy 168 crafted pieces on AH, which should be quite cheap. Or just run heroic 5mans. Quest torghast wings are as hard as overland content, if you can do WQ you can do this aswell.
I managed to do multiple layer 8 on 170ish fire mage, it was painful but doable.
Well there is your problem, you don't do any real content you simply have viewed the game from low end. Torghast wasn't designed to be completed at a heroic ilvl more a normal raid ilvl. I believe you will want to invest some time into Mythic 0's through M+5's and I think you'll find a weekly M0 world tour would boost your ilvl immensely. Find some friends to get this done and I bet you roll Torghast my friend. Maybe mix in some raid finder as well, dont be scared.
If you can't complete the scenario... how did you make it to 60 ?
Shadow priest is one of those classes that I've mained this expac and I hate absolutely thoroughly. The secret apparently is to clip your mind flay for anything else, and focus on keeping dots up and getting mind blast casts.
On the other hand, if you don't do anything above heroic dungeons you're going to have a tough time of doing anything Torghast related, because you have to go back at least 4 times in the campaign.

Simple solution be a death knight problem solved lol.
You need none of that to beat the scripted scenario version of torghast. Fill the bar and press devouring plague when full is sufficient to clear it. It's probably good to learn how to play properly if you want to keep playing the character, but you need none of that to get through the very first intro to torghast.
You are welcome, Metzen. I hope you won't fuck up my underground expansion idea.
The ilvls on your alts is really low. I've barely done any high content on my mage and its 195 ilvl. I can't even imagine trying to do anything in 140 or 160 ilvl.
It would take ages to improve his gear that way, since the pieces you get are only marginally above what you currently have without the campaign upgrades. The thing is, it's not needed (it helps though to get some cheap blue stuff from the AH) to beat the intro scenario. He is clearly just not utilizing the classes toolkit (like not at all). You should be able to beat the rescue baine mission without even picking up powers.

Has been a while since I played but is this from the quest that introduce Torghast for the first time? If so, then Disc Priest is doable at that since I have completed it as one with even lower gear level. Just pure quest gear.
Disc Priest for solo is not difficult so you could try using that that.
Here's the problem. Solutions: Get more gear? WQ scale all the way up to 194~197 gear. Dungeon drops from heroic dungeons (via LFD) is 171. And even if covenant progress is halted, you can still upgrade covenant gear up to a certain point.
Now is that time/resource effective? Probably not considering faster/better methods of gearing BUT... Like OP stated, they don't raid nor do they do M+ but even without those two, there is still gear progression.
