That wasn’t my criticism.
But paying attention for the entirety of the fight, learning the dance and progressing a few percentages at a time (wiping) was part of it, also wiping ~100 times was the usual back in ye olden days. I don’t get, players wanted it back and now they complaining that Blizzard delivered a somewhat genuine experience of how it was back in Legion (while I can agree it is over tuned and should be nerfed a bit).
The Mage Tower was never meant to be for everyone and like now it is 100% optional.
I am even all for bringing back the Legion artefact appearances that came with it so you new guys can get a shot at earning them but it was never meant to be a straw in the park.
Also I watched your video, you are not maximazing your havoc and your movement is all over the place, as in you are not taking the path of least resistance to dodge and continue casting. Idk if Destro lock is your main spec but we are hard casters, try to limit movement and cleave as much as possible with havoc. The other issues are boss mechanics.
When I did it, the worm still had a ton of hp, I screwed up my havocs but it was still doable though I was oom by the end.
Just keep calm, the challenge isn’t hard, it’s just very long with many but easy to execute mechanics.
Just keep at it and you’ll make it.
What helped me most was keep CoT up all the time on Tugar and try to fear him instead of blowing coil/interrupt when both are up. Also, don’t be afraid to use Drain Life while he’s casting EQ to top yourself up.
Good luck!
Also, you can easily fear EVERY sonic scream. This will save you so much hp in the long run.
Thanks. But I started the topic rather as a feedback than a ask for help.
As I was not worried I won’t get it, I was more frustrated with how overtuned it is.
And I stand by it. It’s just too long. Only because they have unnecessarily too much HP.
Also the consumables required are basically as Nethershards in Legion. Another pay-to-play mechanic (in-game obviously however). They did same mistake again even after acknowledging it.

And now that you got it, did it change your perspective on the fight, looking back at your kill attempt compared to the wipes? Or do you still believe the bosses hp should be nerfed to the ground, so that anyone can get them without much effort?
I didn’t want it back, I wanted a chance to do what I couldn’t back in Legion since I wasn’t playing the game back then and blizz mentality lately to just remove stuff from the game is annoying; WotLK gloy mount was the top reward back in that addon - and you can still get it. Why remove stuff? Some ppl will have to wait two year to get the same thing either way, enough time for the top players to brag.
If it was 100% optional it shouldn’t give ANY rewards. Those mogs are good for RP, to collect, to have fun with characters, and not every player that enjoys doing those things is a pro player.
If you want the optional reward you must do the optional content. Are RP groups going to prevent you from joining the unless you had the MT mogs ?
Because it was a challange, and blizzard wanted to reward those who put time on x content. Like amani war bear for example.
If you kept in those rewards even today, the hard work others put to get x stuff, simple invalidate everything they worked on it, cos x years later everyone just faceroll it.
That was the mentality until wotlk naxxramas, then people started to cry and blizz changed it.
Don’t have any groups. But the priest mog is a must have for every true void elf fan; it’s not optional. Mogs in general aren’t optional, nowadays they are the only true content WoW has, because those stay, while gear with stats just gets useless after a patch and even world gear scales higher than former raid gear.
I was content with having to wait 2 years to get raid gear from legacy content, but MT is just unfair. I pay for these mogs with my sub and I want to get something out of my money.
Oh, is it preventing you from creating or playing a void elf ?
Yes, it’s preventing me from following my fantasy, and you know, that’s what games are there for, since RL doesn’t allow it.
But you are able to play your void elf and people are not declining you from groups is that correct ? Also transmogs are not content, they are rewards for doing content.
For feltotem i strongly recomend Purified Shard of the Third Moon - Item - World of Warcraft (wowhead.com) , tauren is a demon therefore it will give you 3k absorb every 1 min,+ it has versa which is best stat for many classes there.
Some of them probably could get an HP nerf to be fair, affliction lock p2 is just 4-5 minutes of running around in a circle, soaking with your pet and spamming drain life. Not particularly hard or interesting.
It wasn’t really a challenge back in Legion though.
On my mage, I went in and popped timewarp and just blasted. I killed her before timewarp was over.
On my priest I did 5 tries, 4 that were pretty much practice and then I beat it when I used full consumables etc on the 5th try. The first phase was nowhere as hard as it is now.
On my feral I beat it pretty easy as well, took longer than the mage to kill it but it was nowhere this much of a slog as it is now.
On my paladin I did a few tries at the retri challenge on alliance and then decided to just go my horde paladin because it had better retri legendaries and killed it first try on it.
On my horde rogue I was trying for some time and then I got the legendary legs as drop for my alliance rogue which had worse gear but those legs made it impossible to die there, so I just went with the alliance rogue that had far worse gear and killed it first try.
I spoke about the tbc and wotlk limited rewards, not the legion mt.
Of course they are content. They are the reason I still play this game. And btw with your logic, everything is this game would be optional apart from an internet connection and a PC.
As long as I don’t have that mogg, I can’t do anything else and dying all over in that tower isn’t fun. Games are supposed to be fun. To they need to fix this. Having moggs is fun, not getting them is unfun.
What are the limited rewards in wotlk? As far as I can remember, there’s only titles.
No my logic is something preventing you from participating in something. For example low ilvl will prevent you from entering groups, making gear progression mandatory in order to participate in content, a bad tranmog prevents you from nothing.
Do you do transmog ? No you collect transmog by participating in content be it legacy raids, killing mogs or in this case the mage tower.
Yes, and I’m doing so, but I can’t kill it, so they need to nerf it. Basta. And don’t expect me to be reasonable anymore, I haven’t slept much since that damn tower came out and have died over 200 times in that encounter. I WANT DO DO SOMETHING ELSE FINALLY THAT’S ACTUALLY FUN. Jesus.
It’s like MoP Legendary cloak all over again: forced to do PvP just to get that cloak. I never do PvP because it’s not fun. I don’t do hard content anymore because it’s not fun. WoW is a family fun game, not a tryhard competitive game!
