It seems that since Legion Remix went live the mage tower tank challenge on retail got bugged. The mobs have twice the hp from before and they also do twice the amount of damage.
It’s not just the tank challenge. All the challenges have been affected.
It’s bandaid fixes to counteract the exploit with crafted gear, but about 9 months too late.
Which makes you think why couldn’t they just completely patch out specific auras and buffs with broken (down)scaling out of the scenarios instead, because players still attempting to beat them the intended way without any shenaningans are now facing twice the challenge.
It’s peak clown show. I’m feeling secondhand embarrassment just commenting on this.
Mage Towers were a complete joke on release due to unsanctioned bugs. The scenarios were also broken on Timewalking re-release because of socketed gear. Same thing today as I’m seeing some videos on youtube with tier set bonus somehow working, and we all know that all these extra aids (external powers) were never intended to function inside of said scenarios post Legion expansion.
Something something prestige and sense of accomplishment, well done ![]()
And no, I’m not divulging any newly discovered methods, this is all public knowledge by now, much of which was originally disseminated by Blizzard’s own partners and contractors.
