It takes me longer to kill ICC 25 normal bosses than it SoO 10 HC bosses

[TickTickTick]

I'd be fine with bosses taking a little more time to kill if they finally allowed mounting in legacy content ffs. Moving around in upper ICC is painful as fuck.

You got a problem with me?

Go to my thread and spam crap so the thread is closed. It just might work.

Honestly if you weren't the OP of those threads, they would have been.

Because generally you're considered idiotic around here

And not just because of your ridiculous views on transmog.

Yeah, i am the crazy grandma about transmog.

But i was already told if i make another transmog thread i am banned...so there is that.
I had fun when a random stranger created a transmog thread after this warning but got tired of the topic.

But im not a troll.

Ignoring all the predictable white knights, it's pretty stupid that killing stuff in old content actually takes longer now. There's no real justification for it.

It's three expansions older and it ain't even heroic lol. Bosses should die in the blink of an eye

Item squish.

This isn't some cutting edge content where 1 second could be the difference between a kill and enrage, this is content that a healer could solo and people are upset that it takes a few more seconds to kill.

Yeah... but you know what Shadow? You own it. So... I kinda respect you for that lol

Trust it to be JustRob moaning about this shit

So what? Doesn't change the fact that there's no real justification for making old content take longer. Unless you can provide me with some?

lol the first compliment i got on MMO-C <3

Process that. Most ICC bosses take between 10 and 20 seconds, most SoO bosses take less than 10.

Just tested this. Takes me at most 5 seconds to kill an ICC 25 Heroic boss. The only one that takes long is the Lich King.

Does that even matter compared to the time you spend running between them?

It still dies in seconds, who cares.

Congrats. You still fail to see the point. Legacy mode was introduced specifically for old content. Yet in many cases it's not working properly.

Stuff dies slower since BfA. That's the exact opposite, it's wrong. One Shield Slam killed WotLK bosses back in Legion (Even before they forced personal loot down our throats). Now? No longer. We've effectively grown weaker cuz Blizzard can't scale properly.

And not even mentioning how multiple bosses/chests still force drop personal loot (Cuz Blizzard slacks).

The reason why before BFA launched that stuff died in the blink of an eye was because all of the world scaling was only from MoP onwards. We received our first stat squish in Legion that was balanced for level 90 onwards. To counter act this in old content, we were given an invisible damage buff because none of their numbers were adjusted, which is why bosses (and everything in the world) melted in seconds, or instantly. The new stat squish with BFA is for all levels across all content. The Legion damage buff was no longer necessary. That's why (generally speaking) some bosses which were instant kill now take a bit of time to kill.

This is how it always should have been. No band aid damage buffs.

Almost right. The squish happened going into WoD from MoP. So we got the buff in old content as if we weren't squished so old content stayed easy. Not sure on the details of the latest squish. IIRC their original idea each squish would make 1 to old level cap linear. So if they did that then everything 1-110 is linear now.

Stat squish messed shit up.

Simple as that.

Is it an issue? Absolutely.

Is it a minor issue however? Absolutely.

It will be fixed eventually. It's still insanely piss easy to solo old content. People are blowing this way out of proportion.

Yeah it is broken scaling.

Too many inexperienced dev and programmers working on WoW at the moment. Wouldn't surprise me if senior employees are working on classic right now.

[Wishblade]

Out of boredom I decided to go have a look myself and I don't see how it's possible for ICC to take longer.

ICC 25 N bosses took me an average of about 7 seconds, ignoring Gunship in the equation due to instant kill.
Granted I quickly stopped taking time in SoO so can't give an exact average but definitely weren't shorter. Usually about the same average fight duration as the above, if you disregard the mechanics that extend the fights, like Immersius splitting, taking tower for Galakras, etc.

Can't imagine any class having some ability to beat SoO fights faster than ICC so me being Fury probably has no merit either. RP is also excluded in all this.

So overall, fights are just about the same length and SoO has more fights that drag out by not being able to simply nuke the big bad.

Thusly, I'm find this claim confusing and will now move along. Good day y'all.
