Torghast is worse than Islands

Sorry, that might make torghast fun and fun is not allowed.

Torghast just lasts way too long. Islands were not perfect and were way too easy but atleast they looked pretty and as i did get lots of fun stuff from the isles i count them as a winner torghast just annoys me to death especially when i finally kill the final boss and as a final FU he drops a legendary to a spec that i will never play that moment there just feels like a complete waste of time even more so than not being able to kill the boss.

thorgast is to based on class and what anima powers you get, I tried to solo today, got to floor 12 whit not much of an issue, then the boss 800k+ healt, adds I didnt have good enough powers, boss had adds, my pet dies, I res it, adds targets me, I fd, pet dies again, adds again target me and kills me in 1 second.

reason for this is, the Maw, becuse to be able to get better rng on anima powers you need to do the maw every day to get the rep for it, I have not done that, so Thorgast starts to become not doable anymore.

lmaooooooooooooooo

Islands were for sure better than Thorgast. I remember that I did Islands on all chars in SL prepatch, despite having all mounts and pets. It was trivial content which is good, I was just farming stuff in current (mogs and pets to sell) in a small group not by myself killing mobs in open world.

Also you could have get the 5k gold mission and some dublons to buy all the stuff from vendors, mounts, pets, mogs.

The 2 arguments that I see against Islands are:

  • grinding azerite - seriously, how grinding soul ash is different? Is the same concept, the length of the grind is highly subjective based on class, spec, how much soul ash you need.
  • the gogogo mentality - well, it was team vs team, you had to speed up, otherwise you would have lost. And for the record, it had a pvp version which was really interesting, because you had to be faster than the other team.
    Both these arguments don’t stay in my opinion.

Trivial content is good. Can be FUN. Is important to have things that don’t require you to over think, over prepare, have discord, pots, flask, watch several guides on youtube and read a bunch of things on wowhead to be ready to do something. Brainless activities in a game are mandatory, because not always everyone is willing to put effort and work, sometimes people just want to have fun.

Ah! You found the tag. I knew there was something missing from that post … :stuck_out_tongue:

I did not a single island expedition but torghast is a worse version of diablo/poe. It is slow, boring. one thing diablo and torghast have common are the repetitive levels.

Enjoy both, but it would be nice if I could que solo for islands. Dont think that is possible for BFA yet sadly.

I’ve already done more Torghast runs than I ever did island runs.

I think Torghast can be improved upon in future patches. They can add higher tiers with more difficulties. They can add new challenges such as reducing the number of lives you can lose. They can add new perks to make it more enjoyable.
The best thing they could do though is add some better rewards.

Islands would need a major overhaul to make them any good, and as it’s old content I don’t see that as a viable use of resources. Although making them soloable would take away the biggest hurdle.

Why is every other post someone saying how easy it is or that it can be done so fast?.You do understand this content is not gear normalised anyone with 200 plus gear should be able to nuke this with no problem.

But i am sure most people that win in BG’s actually think they won the match instead of beating a player with half there gear score lmao.

I hope they leave it alone and focus on other things. The last thing we need is more choreghast

Torghast is definitely worse than islands.

Islands are short with rewards, torghast is long and boring.

Islands are totally optional, torghast is mandatory for ash.

Daily Meli topic.

Beki, was the goal to look like an NBA player or it just came out like that? It looks rather nice.

Torghast is sooo much better than island expeditions.

Lol people debating whether Boreghast is better than Islands is the same as two people arguing whether it’s best to be shred to pieces by a tiger or a grizzly bear.

They are both sooooo dull and tedious. It’s actually putting a lot of people off.

I got to agree, i skipped torghast last week because i did not want to do it. I did not have this so quickly with the weekly islands. Atleast islands dropped tons of goodies like mounts peta and tmogs as well

My cast times disagree with you.

Nah… Warfront was bad… but that does not change the fact that Torghast in its implementation now is the BY FAR worst content in the game. Nothing is even close to the stupidety they manage to throw together and call content.

Torghast is definitely one of the top disappointments in the entire history of the game.

Torghast was praised to be so much, so fun, crazy powers, roguelike, bla bla bla. Yet it ended up being :

(1) very long,
(2) very boring,
(3) horribly imbalanced between specs,
(4) randomly unfinishable due to wrong anima powers,
(5) really buggy.

The only thing that was touted this much and failed this badly that I remember was Ashran.

I think the main problem with torghast is that it locks legendaries behind it if the place would be just for mount, titles, transmogs and pets so people could show off their epeen people would not have so much problem with it.

I kind of like Torghast but then again i also liked island expeditions because i got mounts and pets from there also the pirate hats.

Torghast to me suffers mostly from it being just way too long for little to no rewards and it feels awful with some classes/specs to do.
