With Shadowlands Season 4 in full swing, let's have a look at some Mythic+ tips that will make your runs easier!

Season 4 Mythic+ Weekly Tip

Happy Season 4 everyone! I hope you have had some time to dive into the new dungeons and experience them firsthand because if you haven't, this season is looking better than ever! This week we are going to discuss a few important details from each of the new (old) dungeons that you should pay attention to that will help you time your key regardless of the key level. So without further to do, let's begin!

Operation Mechagon: Junkyard

The most important thing in this dungeon is to get a Shock Bot on every member of your group as early as possible. This will allow you not only to be fast but also minimizes the risk of wiping. A few important things to know about the bots are that, first, they will be gone once you die, and second, the Shock Bot scales with Haste yes, that's right haste, so you might want to get the Haste Bounty just to bump up your Zap damage!

Operation Mechagon: Workshop

While fighting Kujo, there is a way to still keep DPSing during the Venting Flames, but it can be tricky. Below I have attached a clip of myself doing it the hard way (without a WeakAura), but nowadays there is a WeakAura that shows you once you are "safe" to DPS. The trick is to be on the edge of the box's corner; once you are there the boss "shows" you as safe and you can continue DPSing. This works not only for melee attacks but also for ranged, making it quite a useful tip to save some extra time, but be aware that if done incorrectly you will die!

Return to Karazhan: Lower

This will be one of the hardest dungeons to play, but here is a useful tip. When you fight Skeletal Ushers, you can line-of-sight Flashlight's damage, and it will deal nothing to you. In case you can't "LoS" it, you can always turn your back before the end of the cast; at least this way you will avoid getting disoriented, but you will still get damaged.

Return to Karazhan: Upper

During the Mana Devourer boss fight, you can let all the orbs go into the boss (whereas previously they needed to be soaked) since it never gets to full Mana and therefore doesn't cast Decimating Essence. If you soak the incoming orbs, do it for the Unstable Mana damage buff on your DPS players. Other than this, there is no reason to do so. It is uncertain if this is a "bug" or a new way the boss should be played, but hey, heads up!

Grimrail Depot

Once you enter Phase 3 with Nitrogg Thundertower — he has jumped out of his cannon — you can use the same cannon you used to damage him in Phase 2 to further damage him if you have the resources, with bombs, shrapnel, and ammunition. This way you can speed up the boss fight quite significantly.

Iron Docks

Once you fight Fleshrender Nokgar, you can use one of the fences to completely negate several of his abilities like Barbed Arrow Barrage and Burning Arrows, making Phase 2 a lot easier. Keep in mind this only works if you are a Ranged player or your class only relies on ranged attacks.

Final Thoughts

We plan to create weekly articles selecting 1 hot tip for you, every week, that is different than what we have in our weekly route section and will help you gain time on the chosen key. Keep in mind, that some of these tips might be temporary, or used until they are hotfixed, and if that happens we will always notify you in the comments below. With that in mind, enjoy the season and go get that Mythic+ score!

Upper kara's Mana Devourer is NOT bugged. At least not in the EU. The 14 run i had yesterday, the boss reached full mana and cast Decimating Essence for a total of 1.5 mill damage.

      By Starym
      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)

      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Weekly Awakened Cache Drops Item Level 250 Gear for Some
      By Stan
      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      War Within Pre-Patch Mythic+ DPS, Tank and Healer Log Rankings: Week 2
      By Starym
      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix Characters Will Transfer with a Gear Boost
      By Stan
      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
