wow Player Tales of the Mage Tower

[Starym 3,800]

 

The Mage Tower has been pretty successful and popular with players, as some are really enjoying the difficulty and managing to push through, while others are still a little frustrated, so I thought I'd gather up some of the stories they shared!

Considering the amount of demands for the Mage Tower to stay and its official 2-week extension, it's hard not to see it as a major success story, and despite some tuning problems and player frustration, those that do make it to the end seem pretty happy with it.

And then there's those that are particularly happy after a long and longer times trying, even sharing some inspiration with others to persist!

And, of course, there's always the funnier side of things as well, ranging from realizing the limitations of a spec:

To some loot concerns:

Some forgotten boss ability potential for ruining your day:

And some classic comedic commentary as well:

Not to mention the overachievers:

It's really great to see players enjoying content, and I personally find features like the tower some of the best WoW has to offer, especially for those of us that can't quite put in the time needed for Mythic raiding, as this gives a similar feeling without the huge obligation. I hope you're all enjoying it as well, and remember to pace yourselves - if it's not going well today, it might just be better tomorrow!

Man gz to them, but for the average Joe it's still too hard. Hope they do something about ut

Sad thing is it was difficult until you out geared it. But now there is no way to out gear it. Even with Legion content dropping ilvl 60 Warforged gear it is scaled to ilvl 50 and useless so can't out gear the tower this time.

Its stuff like this that reminds me why as a casual player with no guild to speak of quit during legion. Don't know why I came back but likely gone after next patch.

I really found the tuning to be a LOT harder of what it was. I did it before the lvl 150 weap upgrade on most classes and spec, and the current ones are a lot harder to manage, expecially because we got some big nerf into self heals (no legendary neck, no tiers, etc)

I also think its way harder than it was but buying cheap items at AH with bis stats and using some trinket like the mechagon beam one helped me quit alot

I wish it weren't infuriatingly difficult. I don't think at my [low] level of player skill it's possible, on any of my specs, given how many times I've wiped... which is a bummer, this was really the defining feature of 9.1.5.

I don't find any of the rewards very compelling so it's an easy "do not bother" for me.
