Brann Bugfix and Buff — 15 September

Just completed a delve, brann set as healer, he just keeps dying, i dont know from what as he isnt being hit… If he wasnt useless before he certainly is now, having to revive him all the time

oh no no no…
Betting delves are gonna be killed next expansion.

Brann is useless. Even with Fade I can’t lose aggro and I just get killed in seconds by double caster on a T8 on my priest.

Delves are garbage.

I went in and tried a couple of different difficulties and his damage just seems to be lacking. So clearly I did get the overscaling before.

My tank spec actually out damages him now. It’s a bit nutty.

In the 11 he took forever to kill the mobs and then dropped dead to a harder more mini boss like mob.

Every type of solo content has only lasted one expansion, Delves have potential just like Torghast did, the issue comes when they don’t test, balance or bugfix a new feature in the game and then everything is on fire when people play it.

And then they put out hotfixes without testing them too.

I tested Brann on the first boss in Mycomancer Cavern (at the front door as you walk in). Brann outdps’d me as Prot, if you include the Trex, but the boss had 88 million health and it was gonna take decades to die so I just walked out (not bountiful, no reason to complete it).

Don’t think that level of damage is the worst, but mob health is very high and there are a lot of bugs.

good that we dont need to do the shît delves anymore after next reset

this … Bran is useless now

I got my vault slot, now I’m not touching this garbage again until I’m max ilvl. How anyone considers this kind of slog content fun idk. Takes a long time to do higher tier delves and it doesn’t feel rewarding at all. Well congratz, you had enough health and defensives to survive unavoidable damage.

Zekvir ?? still numerically impossible (without the pre-nerf Brann).

On my tank I can survive but with Brann doing no damage and/or not being able to control which target he attacks (the eggs) you get overwhelmed and inevitably die to stuns/damage.

Switching to DPS I get two tapped by 3-5million melee auto-attacks.

So the only viable fixes I see is to either give us more control over Brann and buff his survivability/damage (which would help tank specs the most) or retune the whole encounter (which would help everyone).

Skill issue? Isn’t that what you and the other 2 bragging about…

Bugs are a skill issue? You’re a skill issue.

Na using them… then telling others how easy it is… and how dealing millions per cast is a skill issue :wink:

I have completed 3 x T8 delves on an alt at ilvl570 this evening, one of them with the bugfix. Then during this thread I went into one to test the damage and compare numbers, where I confirmed Brann is still doing more dps than me as a tank.

And you’re using this as me complaining and suggesting I have a skill issue? Have you thought about seeking coaching for reading comprehension?

just did a 2 lvl 8 delve brann does no dmg at 597 ilvl

Lvl 8 delves seem impossible as a healer now, when I do any healing I pull agro and get slammed by trash mobs doing 1/4 of my health per hit. I already have my vault filled so I’m just going to step away from delves for now but I feel bad for people who are now getting punished for not doing them in the first days.

I feel like I’m playing a development build instead of a release version.

Every day significant tuning changes are made to Delves, and by now I have no idea anymore what the intended balance or difficulty for this game mode actually is.

This you? You seem to notice you can’t dps and gave up? See this fix changes nothing for me as Brann did nothing… But in the other thread pretty sure you and the others where saying how Brann does it all and it sooo quick and easy :wink:

Are you still struggling to read? I was criticising and commenting on the ridiculously large health pools of mobs in the delves that are unnecessarily increasing the combat times, which is made worse by Brann doing less damage than previously.

You miss where I am in this thread complaining about Brann’s bug that causes him to stop dealing damage? That’s different from me criticising people who are just mad that they cannot just autopilot a T8 delve.

Delves were fine before Blizzard started hotfixing stuff, maybe a T11 was too easy and caused Brann to scale like nuts, I wouldn’t know because I’ve not attempted above a T8 because it gives no loot, no reason to.

Nonsense, Hunter is one of the strongest delve classes, and brann was slamming. Short of you getting a rare case of brann going afk, you’re just crying about a L2P issue.

I’m glad you guys really testing and catching all the bugs in beta. Can’t wait for the game release.

In your case, it’s better to close it or not open the feature without testing it first.
