Is Torghast Fun for You?

I have only found it fun on my DH, getting a run where you are giant in meta and there is no cd on eye beam is really fun. They need to add more powers to other classes to make it fun. On hunter it is just boring DPS and healing.

I keep being puzzled by this myself.

It’s not about the reward, though. The reward for the boss is fair enough, I suppose. What gets me is that the entire half-hour to an hour you spend getting there feels completely pointless. It does nothing. None of it is related to the boss. There’s no loot. There’s no story. There’s nothing you can take away from it.

I don’t have any specific problem with it, but as Beki said

and I don’t see why.

No not fun.

Hunters in general have horrendous powers (yay for larger tar trap). Coupled with pet nerfs where they fall over so easily (you know so the main theme of the class is defunct in its entirety) its difficult to actually do anything in there solo.

Not to mention getting to last boss with 500k hp, insta gibs your pet then you’re screwed.

So no no fun. shoddy/lacking/terrible powers for my main class (compared to others).

high fives my resto druid gets tonnes of root upgrades like it does a wee bit more damage or lasts longer etc…most of the time completely useless. just makes me sigh when i think about it could have been something actual fun that boosts my damage in another way that doesnt involve…rooting…

I look forward to it and I want to do it on my alts. In fact, torghast is my motivation for every class at 60.

They are paid to hype it. If they don‘t they lose their invitations for the next one maybe and this causes less viewership and less money. They also dont want to criticize because they could be the next cybercrim-s***storm victim.
Nowadays the time to listen to others is over because criticism is - in general, with all these cyberhate - not favourable to do anymore.
The time for skepticism has come. Don’t listen.

Torghast was interesting few first times - then no. Its like a mandatory to grind. Just don’t like it in general.

and what did you expect from blizzard PR machines …erm streamers ?

Thorgast is what it is - boring easy place that you will be forced to do for ash till end of expansion

just wait for 9.1 and they will add some crazy transmogs for twisted corridors just to force people to go there anyway .

because it gives them stuff to do during their 10 hours of work - erm streaming .

ofc they rejoiced .

I found it fun, then they overtuned it in a number of ways because a few classes were cheesing it. Now it’s more of a chore and the end boss is still an RNG gamble - so if its a raw raw me smash you die melee boss… my mage doesn’t have amazing chance. Where as if it was a spellcaster then NP.

I have done it with 3 chars: druid, hunter, warrior. I have yet to find the “Amazing Fun” all streamers claimed.

It just feels very boring, time consuming and not rewarding. It is very hard for me to understand why they would think so.

Torghast was amazingly fun when it was first released in the alpha, but now it’s just like a regular dungeon to be honest. I knew they wouldn’t of kept it the way it was on alpha, it looked like too much fun and there was too much praise for it. Even now all those streamers who said it was amazing, all say it’s not as fun anymore but they still sort of like it.

It feels like a regular dungeon, I honestly don’t get the fuss about it?!..

It’s tedious . I would prefer two difficult floors instead four tedious ones.

Fun for the first floor, very repetitive for the rest.

Mob and esthetic changes are just not enough to keep me engaged.

I find it only to be fairly “okay” if i can get RNGesus to bless me with the OP powers. Otherwise it is a boring slugfest that does not feel rewarding to do at all, even if one only has to do it once.

Already bored of Torghast. Now it feels like a chore I have to do in order to be competitive with the rest due to legendaries rather than mostly doing it because I enjoy it.

I was afraid this would happen, that Blizzard wouldn’t bat an eye towards a possible issue with this.

I like it. For me it’s quite different vs M+, which I also enjoy. But M+ is basically very fastpaced lots of pulls and big pulls, whereas when I solo Torghast it’s really much more surgical, coz I get knocked the life out of me if I don’t and it’s quite nice to make my way thru.

Nah… I feel like I want to do it only the minimal possible amount. This is to collect soul ash and legendary.

While I’m pretty casual and I mostly do stuff that doesnt really matter, I would still want some reward for it. Something. As far as I can tell, there is nothing but soul ash and legendaries.

Beyond those, I see no reason to waste my time there. There are no mogs, mounts, toys, pets or anything. At least not directly tied to it?
