Such as, for example, your continued assumption that everyone else is always the problem. Thanks for playing 
Well done 
You believe you have made a point, but all you have done is react. You take what is spoken and twist it to fit your narrative, because to see it as it is would require stepping outside of that conditioning. And that is the very thing you cannot do.
Because I have already proven that the Boralus key would have been timed, and it has nothing to do with my positioning because such context is missing - and therefore that statement was made with no knowledge and then once again we are able to get back to the matter of fact that the key would have been completed if it was not for whoever made that dispell during the last boss.
So once again, the mirror is held before you, and once again, you refuse to look, not because you cannot, but because doing so would mean letting go of what you think you know. And that, above all else, is what you fear. And I should know this, because I have read psychology and studied it.
Actually, I take it back. The deaths on the last boss just fall under “stuff happens”. It happens at the 31:00 timestamp.

Here is the replay, you were walking across the bridge, ahead of everybody else, monk hit flying serpent kick, with the debuff that needs dispelling. He caught up to you, at the exact same time the dispel happened and you scattered like snooker balls. Should he have hit that ability then? Prolly not, he needed dispelling and the best play there is to not get out of range of the healer (unless he had diffuse magic).
On balance, I think your play was about as good or bad as the other people in that run, singling them out and saying you were great is terrible self awareness.

Part of me wants to answer with a Vawekian wall of text that would just absolutely tear you to shreds, because you`re in my wheelhouse now and this isn’t Kansas… But I fear that stripping away all of your bravado bit by bit and exposing your pitifully low self-esteem and the real motivations for your incessant search for validation for what they are might leave you a sobbing blob of flesh that even the best therapist would have a problem getting off his couch in a timely fashion, and I took an oath not to knowingly harm patients, even if it is no longer my vocation.
So I think I´ll just be happy that engineering is finally done, drink a cup of coffee while I write a few lines of code, and then go home laughing my bum off at just how utterly delusional some of you F60.81s are.
And we need another troll to take up the slack until Spud returns, anyway, since we can´t just call up a contracting firm and say “We broke it, send us a new one, please”.

I agree that more solo content like this is needed. You can come back as long the patch last and give the solo delve boss another try, for example if you did not defeat him at 600 ilvl you can always come back stronger later on and try again.
Side note: I have friends between with 625-635 ilvl and still cannot defeat Zekvar double ??. Ive watched them stream the attemts and I try gave em ideas but they simply cant handle the speed of the encounter.
Congrats on the kill @Vawek.
You may say this, but eeww

I defeated zekvir after 7 tries at lv70.
Can i get my round of applauses 
Nailed it.
As a tank you should be handling the more importanr interrupts and yes self-dispelling. Avoiding mechanics is without saying ofc.
Zek ?.? was great fun, I was really chuffed when I killed it and it’s the hardest content I’ve done as a predominantly solo player (for me, it was harder than 5 mask runs in Visions). I really hope we get an equally challenging new end boss every patch and we get similar content in Midnight.

Translated, you navigate these dungeons however you like without considering what your group is actually capable of.

You are trying to point to the matter of fact that your druid friend failed miserably and that I did not pay attention to the fact that we had a druid – which, according to some, is not capable of interrupting. However, this way of looking at it is wrong. Because druids can actually – no matter what they play as – pick up skull bash and from there morph into cat form (or bear form) to perform interrupts.
But this is not about whether a druid can interrupt, it is about the assumption that they cannot and that their failure must be excused as an inevitability rather than acknowledged as a lack of awareness. And then the druid pointed to me to cover their shortcomings and knowledge of how to play their class. This is the conditioned thinking I have spoken about, where failure is not examined but justified, where responsibility is not taken but shifted.
And this is the real issue; you do not question why things happen, only that they do. You do not ask how something could have been done differently; you only defend why it was not. That is not observation. That is not learning. That is simply reinforcing the same cycle, over and over, until nothing changes.
So no, I did not fail to consider what my group was capable of. I simply did not limit them in the way you have chosen to. If we look at the run itself
I dispelled myself as of the weekly affix - And I went for Diffuse Magic to dispell myself during the last boss. Every pull is the same in Siege of Boralus. However, if someone dies to a frontal, that is their fault - not mine. If someone dies to poison, that is their fault - not mine, and I should not save my Detox to remove their poisons - they have their own kit to do so - and if not, the healer has ways to remove cleanse. The matter of fact is that the key would have been timed - if it wasnt for the shortcomings of others, and it has nothing to do with what I took into consideration regarding what the group is capable of. They overestimated what THEY are capable of by signing up to a 12+.
Not at all, I am pointing to the fact that you A) had a group with casters and B)decided to pull the pack that people avoid because it has too many casts to interrupt. I do not need to defend my druid friend, because he is fully capable of doing that himself and his achievements speak for themselves (he has timed 12s unlike some people).
I am pointing to the fact that you are a very selfish tank that doesn’t understand his pulls nor his groups capabilities, and also refuses to communicate with his group (about important things at least, we all heard loud and clear how you were the “significant difference”).
In all honesty the only thing I can give you props on is that you did not lose aggro for most of the time.
Well, there is an easy solution to that, and it is this:
Casters should not play M+ content if they cannot play their role correctly and execute proper interrupts.
For instance, I asked a druid recently and linked him the “Let Me Solo Him” achievement, asked if he had it. This druid sits at 3000+ M-score, with multiple 12+ keys timed. And yet, with less than 12 hours left in the season, he does not have it. And that, right there, proves the difference.
I told him about the difference, laid it out clearly, and guess what? He got mad. Not because I was wrong, but because the truth is uncomfortable. And that reaction itself, that resistance, that need to defend rather than observe, is exactly why the difference exists in the first place.
You say I am selfish, that I do not understand my pulls, that I do not communicate. But what you fail to grasp is that communication is meaningless if those who receive it do not listen. Precision is meaningless if those who follow cannot see the path ahead. And as always, when presented with the reality of their own shortcomings, people do not seek to improve, they seek to deflect.
That is the significant difference. And whether you see it or not, it remains. And I am that significant difference talked about.
And what you fail to grasp is that you, as the “supreme leader”, should be cognizant of who you are leading and adapt your strategy accordingly. If I have a thousand archers behind me, I´m not going to force a bayonet rush into a line of enemy cavalry.
And that is why you will always fail, because you repeatedly refuse to consider the capabilities of those you lead, even after they start to become a problem forcing you to take note of them, thereby turning yourself and anyone stupid enough to follow you into nothing more than cannon fodder.
And you are the best proof of that that one could possibly ask for.
I have a better solution. Brewmaster monks shouldn’t touch M+, I mean what are tehy even good for? Not holding aggro? If you want a monk in your group just invite windwalker or a mistweaver.
Ooook. I have it (took me 1 try as opposed to your 9 btw) and I got it considerably late. Why? Because I did not bother to try earlier. Only did because people were winning on the forums about how “hard” it was. Maybe the that druid didn’t want to bother either.
They are so meaningless that you fail time and time again to time a +12.
I mean clearly I am, because on all metrics I am a superior player to you.
PS I finally got what “the significant difference” actually is. If people sing up to a +12 with a normal tank they might time it, but if they sign up with you there is 0 chance. Now that is a significant difference if I ever saw one.

That is where you were wrong though; because that moment did arrive. The moment that was always going to arrive. And I’m sorry if I cannot put 6-7 hours a day into the game to actually put effort into doing +12 keys to eventually get one timed. Buuut, that moment is what we have arrived at. Because let us not forget, it was first that I could not do then; and I did 10:s, then you said I could not do 11:s, I did 11:s… And then you said I could not do 12:s - and you were wrong, and I were right - that is the significant difference.
And of course, the same people, repeating the same tired lines, telling me what I could not do. But as expected, they failed to observe the reality of the situation; that I would time atleast a +12 keys before the next season. There was no struggle. The very thing that so many of you have built your arguments upon has now crumbled beneath you. And what happens now? Silence? Excuses? Shifting the goalpost yet again? Let’s be clear, this was never about whether I could time a 12+. That was obvious from the beginning. The real question was how long it would take before reality caught up to your delusions. You see, I was never the problem. The problem was your inability to recognize what was in front of you… Because what happens now? Do you accept that you were wrong? No. Instead, you will deflect. You will grasp at whatever remains of your narrative, scrambling for anything to hold onto because the truth is too much to bear. But it doesn’t matter. The significant difference remains. I did not change. I did not compromise. I did not adjust my approach to fit into your limited perception of how things “should” be done. I played the way I have always played,
and the key was timed regardless.
So, what now? What will the next excuse be? Because I have seen this before. First, it was “You can’t time a 12.” Now it will be “It doesn’t count because…” and then some desperate justification.
The same cycle, repeated. The same people, pretending that if they deny something long enough, it will cease to exist.
But existence does not bow to perception. And the truth remains, unmoved. I timed the key. And I will continue to do so. That is the difference.
Same thing applied when I opened my first businesses, and people were so against it. But I had an idea, and I knew that it would succeed because I had a clear image in my mind,
and although there was a lot of things in the way; such as people at the place getting mad where I worked at the time - because I offered the same services that they do - but on a Friday-Sunday basis and to a cheaper price, that they literally tried to said that it goes against their own policies … but it was not found on paper, then they tried to say that I stole their businesses model, although it was in the same field, it was not the same form of services that my businesses offered. But it was not about what I did - but they were afraid of what my idea could expand into. And expanded it did and succeeded where people thought I would fail. And those people - are people that are not good for you in general. That is why I do not speak to my family or childhood friends who were against the idea in the first place - because they were against my progress - however, I make sure to show them how much progress I made - and are they grateful for that? No, they get angry - and that creates the significant difference. I am that great significant difference,.
Improve your social skills maybe.

precisely what I anticipated. Not an acknowledgment of being wrong. Not an admission that your prior claims have been shattered. No, just a vague, dismissive remark, a desperate attempt to divert attention from the reality you cannot accept. That is the significant difference that I have talked about - and it has been proven once again.
Anyways, I laugh. “Improve your social skills” … Fascinating critique, considering the nature of this discussion. Tell me, what is the social skill you wish to see? Compliance? Deference? Should I have quietly accepted your flawed premise, played the part of the humble student, and pretended that your words carried weight? Is that what you wanted? Because that was never going to happen.
Because the difference proves the significant difference. Yet, for a difference to be significant, it must be revealed, not by the one who embodies it, but by the contrast it creates in others. If the difference testifies of itself, it is dismissed. But when another sees it, when they acknowledge its presence - although they cant admit it, and they see its undeniable impact, then the difference is not just difference, it becomes significance.
For what is a significant difference but the chasm between two? One set apart, rising above, making a distinction so undeniable that the distance itself becomes a testament. That is the reality before you. That is what you are unwilling to accept. And that is why I am the significant difference.
You see, social skills are not about bending to the will of others simply because they wish it so. Social skills are about communication, about articulation, about presenting one’s thoughts with clarity and precision. And in that regard, I have excelled. I have spoken with conviction. I have laid out my position without hesitation. If that makes you uncomfortable, if it unsettles you to the point where your only response is to dismiss rather than engage, then perhaps it is not my social skills that are lacking, but your ability to handle reality - that same reality which I am in control of.
So no, I will not “improve” in the way you wish. I will not soften my words to spare fragile egos. I will not pretend that truth is negotiable. I have already demonstrated what needed to be demonstrated. And if the best you can do in response is a half-hearted jab, then I accept your surrender.
