Is there information regarding a difficult solo challenge that unlocks unique rewards similar to the mage tower of Legion?
I vaguely remember seeing something in the early BFA days about them wanting to create something similar.
I love the difficulty of these challenges and the reward is actually meaningful, as there is no way around just being a good enough player to do it.
We’ll probably never get them again because the majority of the players found them too challenging and therefore intimidating.
But wasn’t it out-gearable with time? Or is that gone now because of scaling?
Gear doesn’t help the majority much.
I think the problem wasn’t the difficulty, you can do anything solo, if it’s possible to be done, using web walkthroughs.
The problem was, much like the followers missions and garrison, that it isolates the player from the community and people didn’t like that because it’s against the spirit of a multiplayer game.
In fact anything solo, if it’s doable, is easier than anything else.
Web walkthroughs will tell you exactly what to do.
mage tower was one of the best things Legion had to offer it was the thing that kept me playing.
I hope so myself, but dont forget mage tower came out live at the end of legion so dont let your hopes down something similar will come at BFA soon or in a while. After that at a point people outgeared mage tower though and lost its challenge.
Really… ? /facepalm
Last time Ion spoke about the subject he said they had no plans and don’t want to develop a pattern where in every expansion you have something like this.
Just make open world difficult and we good.
No we’re not.
Just because you like difficult stuff, doesn’t mean the entire playerbase does and/or should be forced to play the way YOU like it.
Try playing shadow priest then say it’s easy.
There is zero challanges in open world atm, thats not even fun.
Yes but then where’s the challenge.
I’ll hold my hand up. I did them the last three for my druid at the end when we had the crazy buffs. Doing high dps - (particularity) the healing one -,made them much simpler.
If most people do the challenge when it’s easier then it’s not really a challenge they are after.
I think it was a possibility in the future but not in the foreseeable future.
the problem with the Mage Tower is that it varied in challenge for some specs even with spec specific tuning. As I recall a certain rogue spec was one of the first and that was before we even got gear it was tuned for.
Don’t worry, I’m sure if they put something hard in you can buy a boost like you did for CM’s.
Having zones with increased difficulty might be something, but equally, why?
We have hard instanced content, m+ scaling as high as people can handle, mythic raids, arena where you can fight against the most skilled players around, as well as fight utter donkeys in arena but that’s another matter.
I don’t really see the need for open world to challenge everyone, if you’re geared from hc/mythic raids, then disorganised mobs wandering around should crumble before you.
We have our hard content, not that there is no room for hard solo content but it shouldn’t come at the expense of someone else’s content.
We talking about solo content here, stick to the topic.
And we’re also talking about challenging content. Which you claim to love but seem to avoid…
Honestly you’re on thin ice there, open world isn’t solo content anymore than it is group content, it’s both. So can easily be deemed off topic as well.
Get real If u inspect my profile u can se how much i have done in this game since Vanilla and u are picking on me for some challange modes, if u think hitting almost 100% in every achiv category is an easy task, okay.
