Layer 8 floor 18 SYNOD

Oh how wrong you are

wait till layer 7 and 8

I got that as final boss of layer 7, you need to get the powers that let you attack while in turtle and extend its duration. Just pop BL and everything at start, when the pet dies you have few seconds to ress it while the boss attacks your second pet, then use turtle and hope to finish the boss before turtle runs out. I had something like 32 seconds turtle and was able to kill it with around 50k dps (boss had 7m hp)

I have zero chance of clearing Layer 8, tried multiple times, both wings. Just thought that 7 is my limit and decided that I shouldn’t spend more than 20 hours a week on Torgasts.

Fear not, it will inevitably be nerfed in the near future.

Both wings? You mean the Soul Ash wings?

I didn’t get Synod when I did layer 8 floor 18, but You should have 100+ anima powers. When I did layer 8, I got Decayspeaker at floor 18 who is also hard hitting.

I did it as Guardian Druid, with my anima powers I had power giving me permanent barkskin and iron bark. I also had about 40% versatility. Making my passive damage reduction 67%. In addition I had insane amount of haste making me able to spam iron fur for further 85% physical damage reduction. I had another power that gave me 25% damage reduction in combat. Another power that reduces damage done by targets with my moonfire by 20%. So overall, I had like 97% damage reduction without using any CDs. So the boss was tickling me. I also had more than 200K HP and about 100K single target damage. So boss was down in less than 2 mins.

At one time (I think in layer 6), I had insane anima powers, and killed the final boss with 260K single target DPS because of insane anima powers. So 9M HP would be down in 36 seconds.

So yes, the numbers may seem ridiculous, but the anima power you should have by the time you reach floor 18 should be ridiculous too.

Looking forward to trying it, currently my ilevel is quite low but honestly bosses i’ve done so far haven’t given me many problems at all in the SA wings (can’t progress the story until next week…seems the timegating isn’t all removed!!!) Some add packs (like those in Mort with the shades that cast that huge damage nova) are more troublesome because I can’t kick as a Hpala but regarding bosses? I’ve just tended to bruteforce them down and heal more than they can damage me and hopefully this will still work in the TC when i gear up even more.

All about the Avenging Wrath talents and HoW talents but the judgement/shock cd reduction is good too for extra dmg and HP. Pair the former with Awakening and every time it procs you get a brief window of “everything dies in a hammer”.

you need almost all the stun powers for that boss in max Floor and a mad amount of RNG

wym by rerolling floors, you can’t just leave and enter torgast at any floor you like.

how will you avoid interrupting slam which is unavoidable even when you out range it or line of sight and if hit more and more every time it he slam as he gain a buff from it, as i mentioned earlier the slam itself does 100k+ dmg and scale higher with / stacks + a nasty 10 magic damage taken increase from the floors environment.

I meant just doing it over and over until you find that single power.

but it’s only once and it’s over, it’s not regained every floor.

That’s why it makes no sense but heh.

People that can’t solo can just make a group and get carried by a Lock or something.

Im here with my 2 cents. I am on layer 8 with no problems at all (well I had to repeat layer 3, couse I took bad powers). I am playing as guardian druid and have no problems. Before you start complaining, about tanks. My friends did all layers and had their mounts next day, as outlaw rogue and MM hunter. Just use that HOLOgraphic boss preview, check their abillities on wowhead and select powers you need. It’s easy :wink: PS.: Blizz please do not change anything, Twisting Corridors are more then fine. Not everyone should have that mount, since it is supposted to be a challenge :wink:

i had like 30%+ crit /90+% haste / 60+% mastery around like 60 to 70 BLOCK / almost all needed talents unlocked / ALL THE STUNNING POWERS and spammable Judgments / hammer of wraths / couple hp boosters as i only had 115k hp.

err the armour / magic reduction powers never showed up nor the lens power for damage and i had the most counter play tower debuff you can possibly imagine ! FINAL BOSS HIT WITH SHADOW DAMAGE ! and i had 10 stacks of magic damage taken increase XD so not only i was fighting a rais boss, but also i was getting god like damage taken and almost every mistake is doom.
and i did not reach 100 powers not even close ! phantasma was really really short and picking the right powers was extreemly punishing and i ended up with like 67 powers max and 22 phantasma left.
keep in mind that every single monster and Urn got distroyed from floor 1 to floor 18 + 6 death potions.

He didn’t seem that bad when I got him as my layer8 boss. In fact, he did not get to do anything…

dude i’ve managed to kill it
imgur. com/a/qnzXIKL
but it was absolute pure luck, with high ilvl gear / countering every single boss ability.
i died 8 times on that boss itself.
but my point is, if i had an absolute hell killing it, surely others (at least paladins) would have an even more worse.
and there’s a high chance the magic damage taken increase from the tower made it a thousand time harder than ever.
like trully when i say each slam hit 100k+ shadow damage i mean LITTERLY death sentence.
also i was puming 150k dps and slowly droppping down to 70k as i was Hard defending from the instane Auto attack damage once he started reaching high power stacks.

i don’t know if paladin powers are actually bad or not since i don’t play one. But they really should look at some classes/speccs again for anima power sake. The hunter ones arent anything worthwhile either. Marksman ones are absolute garbage and focus more about traps and pets, wich is something youd expect of the other speccs. BM is a little bit better, and nobody plays survival hunter since legion anyway

Here’s my recommendation.

Find a 5 man group to do it with. A lot of people want that mount, so it won’t take too long to find it.

we did it with 4 dps and a prot paladin. Both paladins were dealing really good damage too. And the run was a piece of cake.

For me it’s about time spending…adding 12 layers just makes me feel sick of this game
