SoD Onyxia is severely overtuned

Onyxia has way too much HP. It’s a way longer fight than any MC fight, Ragnaros included.

She needs to be nerfed, as a Mage if I don’t have a Shadow Priest I’m OOM for half the fight. That’s terrible design and no fun at all. She has too much HP and the fight takes too long.

I played mage back in 2019 and yeah, you went OOM then as well.

Wand is love wand is life

Bring more players.

She can be done with up to 40 players.

yeah sorry to say, but if you are lacking dps, invite more players.

this is highly likely a loot greed issue.
you want to bring as few players as possible to increase your chance to win loot and your dps is lacking as a result.

clear cut case of stop being greedy.

we bring between 20-25 players, sometimes including pugs, and she goes down without much issue as long as people play the fight correctly.

its fine. learn to mana control. you don’t need to top meters. stop chasing parses. are you using mana gems dark runes demonic rune mana pots.

wants the raid life but isnt willing to use all items available to be able to do it. and please dont come back with the " these are expensive" shinys aint cheap.

the worst take ever as usual

You have no idea what you’re talking about ( also you’re a green logger lmao, what business do you have teaching others, learn your class first ).

Every class in SoD can mongo faceroll the keyboard because they have zero mana costs or tools to give them infinite mana. If I as a mage go OOM despite using Evocation, Mana Gem and Demonic runes, either Mage mana is way too low or the boss has too much HP.

Bring a shadow priest?

The solution to Mage being the only DPS that goes OOM isn’t to make them depend on another class to play the game.

bro, get yourself a shadow priest in party and wait for naxx, you’ll scale then bro

Lol you forget…chasing parses is the new meta. About blizz shut that nonsense down, along with gear inspect.

Only thing overtuned about onyxia is the Fireball in p2. If melee for example too stacked they all drop like flies. Maybe adds p3 spawn abit too fast for a 20man

This is an unacceptable solution. Why is Mage the only class that needs another spec present in order to play the game?

they’re not.
every class relies on at least 1 other class to increase their power level and efficiency.
windfury totem says hello, for example.
battle shout.
pack aura.
poison debuffs.
sunders.

use the noggin you got bro.

You’re comparing a Warrior losing some damage from Windfury with a Mage not being able to play the game and having to wand.

The only one not using his noggin here is you. Or maybe you are using it and that’s your limit. Either way, worrying.

warrior loses out on more than just damage, he loses out on rage too.

go buy dark runes, farm demonic runes, get alchemy and pop those major mana pots out like a factory.
get a flask of distilled wisdom for a whopping 2k more mana.
use your evocation and mana gems.
ask druid for innervate (bribe him).
mana tide totem from resto shaman.

play the game.

Mage is the only class that needs all those in SoD. It’s unfair/bad game design and they need to buff Mage accordingly.
