Remove Eye of the Jailer in The Maw

It prevents you from to play this game, you have done all things and only The Maw you cant do due to stupid Eye of the Jailer. I hope you have learned lesson, the dev!

This is true and we will be able to use mounts in the Maw as well. But I agree with the op, the eye of the jailer just makes the Maw not worth playing.

They should have had rep with Ve’nari affect how fast the Jailer’s Eye bar filled up. The quests where she basically teaches you to the “rules” of surviving The Maw as you progress with her could have been used for this.

I agree and while there are addons you can purchase from Venari to help you combat the eye of the jailer, you have to earn rep with Venari to buy these and have stygia. But of course if you die in the Maw and cant get back to your corpse, there goes all of your hard farmed stygia, not to mention some of the dailies you cannot get to, due to the thickness of mobs, the eye of the jailer, and no real transport modes to get there.

If Blizzard meant for the Maw to be the end of patch content for 9.0 then they failed miserably here, considering one cannot play the said content in the Maw without the irritating problems mentioned above.

Wouldn’t surprise me if the Maw ended up as a Firelands type raid as the final one for this expac - i’m not a huge fan of the place, but would make an awesome raid with a few tweaks

Imagine to pay to play game online and you cant go to the Maw due to Eye of the Jailer so you have to wait almost 1 day and you can only be there max 10-25 mins per day. It depends on quest and daily. It makes worthless to play, it is what you want, the dev.

You should be able to do the three dailies each day without maxing out the eye. You don’t have to do the weekly quests or the soul collecting all at the same time.

Errm, no, just no, I mean no means no!!! Happy Easter!

Sure.
Now how do people who actually work full-time jobs catch up on the maw content over the weekend if they can only spend 30 mins max inthere?
I have a week vacation next week from work, and it coincides with darkmoon faire so I’ll be doing some stuff but probably gonna be the last week I play wow.
Maw-shenanigans, anima-farming and elitism (and honestly recent game-time changes*) combined make this game no longer worth my time and money, just gonna dabble a bit until my gametime runs out and be done with it.

*I understand I can still get a sub and cancel it but for that I am forced to use a credit card so way to exclude those players that have such a low income that they cannot own/use a credit card or for whatever reason will not start using one.

In my case I have the Twisting Corridors Mount which makes the three dailies very fast to complete. I don’t spend very long in the Maw at all.

If anything the Soul quest currently takes the longest with the slowed down respawn rate.

No one cares about that… sockets are the only thing people cant buy boosts for… everything else is boosted :confused: all items with a socket is still less than 1
200 rating its basically nothing and wont decide anything

Do two quests or even simply collect your weekly souls… and wham, instantly being in there is a hassle within minutes.

A zone literally designed around the principle of: “We don’t want players in there.” LIKE… just don’t make the zone in the first place if you are so determined that players shouldn’t be in there.

Then they proceed to make it a hub of your progress in numerous ways.

Yea just let me pay 200k for a torghast boost
Do people really do this

Remove the eye and just put a cap on the amount of stygia (or whatever it’s called) that you can farm in a day (not counting quest rewards).
2k a day plus quests? means you could do a couple slots a week (plus a lot of people aren’t even capped on rep yet…)

Lets go one step higher, remove The Maw in SL.

But Maw should be dangerous place. Where u struggle to survive. That’s why we need to unite convenants and get power. We will do this in 9.1.

idk…I hate The Maw and Torghast but I wouldnt of got rid of them. I just think that they have been employed badly. If they were along the lines of the Order Hall tower challenges or high level mythic type content that would of been better.
It was a mistake to try and channel all players (no matter what type of content they enjoy) through this experience IMO.

Remove it? As in…some people couldnt get enough of the Maw?
