Brann Bugfix and Buff — 15 September

Brann no longer takes aggro, Delves are now unbelievably difficult for cloth wearers, especially mage. Because the difficulty is tuned toward simple 1m hit auto attacks, with the boss being cc immune. Why am I forced to out gear delves to finish them when the content will be irrelevant next week. It feels like Delves are just not for me because I picked Mage to play.

Did you do them with pet as Hunter?

Yup. They where a slog yesterday and the same today… Ppl don’t seem to understand how broken they are for other classes lol… this fix has gave ppl a rude awakening… Maybe they will now stop saying how easy they are and get Blizzard to you know balance them…

Just to be clear be it feral, Ret, Destro Brann did jack all… so this patch does nothing to me… he is around 10% of my damage…

Not sure if this was brought up, as I haven’t read the full topic, or if this is the right place to post it, but since the changes to Brann the Zekvir boss fight on ?? difficulty is, to my knowledge, more or less impossible to do now.

If anyone has done it post nerf please prove me wrong of course! But if you see someone with the mount from the Let me Solo Him achievement it was pre-hotfix.

As a blood Dk, lowest ive gotten him post hotfix is 32% and that was a real struggle. The fight takes forever as bran doesnt help at all and seems to die from every aoe possible.
The biggest issue im finding is the dps check for cocoons, as a tank, i dont have enough for it and have to kite/interrupt the spiders until they die.
Ive done ? Tier post hotfix but ?? Seems to not be happening yet, maybe with more gear but we will see

Okay Blizz, people were getting gear too fast and you just nerfed it that was it.

Should not do these things mid week… just makes people upset… I guess Delves are not relevant until this is “re-fixed”, keep your keys :slight_smile:

And please test your changes before applying it to live… a simple run with a lvl 600 character would just have tipped you this was bad.

My Brann still stays on frontals, fear areas and keep focusing the boss when the small add appears in the Zekvir ?? Difficulty… and does less dmg than days ago.

How in seven hells should i do it as a tank?.

Taking typs for real.

I’m sure people understand what they are and how you would climb the different levels, it’s just that there are inconsistencies in difficulty between different delves of the same level.

I know you could go in solo or as a mixed group, if anyone has found a ‘sweet spot’ it would be good to know.

It’s certainly from delves, had to try so ran a lvl 8 normal delve. Got 2 crests at the end of that. So tier 8+ and you can farm your crests in delve, quite nice actually.

Had thought it would be bountiful only that gave crests but apparently not.

The problem there is that with them being the best way to get equip for the start of the m+ season they are absolutely forcing everyone wanting to get a good start to do them. Which means they are probably “more” made for high-ish key pushers than for anyone else this week specifically. Which does suck.

It´s kinda the same problem they created with Thorgast, forcing everyone into it when it´s the first iteration and make us hate the content. Doesn´t matter now if it will eventually be good, already happy if i never see a delve again in my life after this week.

… just seen this - will test it out later to see

They are absolutely not.
Feeling forced and being forced are two vastly different things.

No, they were not made for them. Just because you get to ‘use them for your own gain’ doesn’t mean they were made for you; that’s complete backwards logic.

Not comparable. Torghast was the only way to get your legendary.
There is nothing exclusive in Delves that you have to have; you can get it all in different activities.

That’s fine, because again; they’re not meant for you.
You should have never set foot in one if you don’t enjoy it.
The fact that you felt like you had to, just means you have an obsessive or compulsive mindset when it comes to gaming. I would work on that, if I were you (in fact: I have worked on that in the past and it’s no longer an issue for me).

Or that i don´t want to hold my team back by not doing everythign i can to make sure we have a smooth start to the saison.
It´s just sh.itty design from Blizzards side to make the rewards everywhere else really bad, force you to do 9s in week one to get mythtrack as a m+ only player, which will be insanely difficult even with full delve gear and quite impossible with the crap m0 throws at you.

And don´t come at me with i don´t need the gear, the content i enjoy is past +10 when stuff gets interesting, i want to push my limits based on my skill, not on my gear.

So much for world content players looking for chalening solo content :smiley:

I did 8s yesterday with Brann as healer and me as Fury (580) then Feral (596). He’s a pretty good healer. I have zero idea how to play DPS and I didn’t read a guide so my rotation abilities were certainly “super casual” or less.

While I was Fury I did it with him as DPS and I kept dying though.

HP sponges will never be challenging content… try again.

And now suddenly Brann is doing less damage than my disintegrate… as preservation.

Brilliant.

The number of Delves “fixes” every single day shows us that they don’t care at all and don’t test anything. They just add random fixes and wait for us to test it

So it’s a ‘you’ thing. Got it.
