WoW: Even More Nerfs – The Hardest Dungeons Will Get Easier

A new week, a new wave of nerfs. The 4 most difficult dungeons in World of Warcraft are getting adjustments and will be easier.

The fine-tuning in World of Warcraft: Shadowlands is still not complete months after the release. Some dungeons, like “The Other Side,” are still significantly harder than others. Blizzard is making adjustments and is rolling out a series of hotfixes in the next weekly reset, which will ease some of the challenges in the dungeons.

All Dungeon Nerfs for February 10, 2021 in WoW

In total, 4 of the 8 available dungeons will be adjusted and receive minor nerfs. Especially the timer for The Other Side will be loosened a bit.

• The Other Side
  • The time limit for mythic keystones has been increased from 41 minutes to 43 minutes.
  • Hakkar
    • Son of Hakkar now deals 50% less damage with melee attacks.
    • The damage of Blood Nova has been reduced by 20%.
  • Merchant Xy’exa
    • The damage of Arcane Blast has been reduced by 25%.

• Necrotic Wake
  • Nalthor the Icebinder
    • The duration of Gift of the Champion has been increased from 15 seconds to 30 seconds.

• Spires of Ascension
  • Ventunax
    • The duration of Dark Step has been reduced from 20 seconds to 15 seconds.

• Theater of Pain
  • Xav the Unbeaten now has 10% less health points.

Bosses have become easier for the Tyrannical week: All changes affect only the boss fights, which should be particularly helpful in the upcoming Tyrannical week. The affix “Tyrannical” strengthens the bosses and has been considered significantly harder by WoW players compared to other affixes. Uncontrollable elements, like the Sons of Hakkar, are now less of a problem, and with Nalthor in the Necrotic Wake, DPS players now benefit from a longer buff, which should shorten the boss fight by a few seconds.

Last week there were strong nerfs, as tanks are no longer supposed to run away constantly.

When do the changes go live? Already tomorrow, February 9, with the end of maintenance work. If you complete mythic dungeons for the upcoming WoW week, the changes should already be noticeable.

Do you find the adjustments good and meaningful? Or is Blizzard overdoing it a bit with the nerfs?

There are no more loot, by the way. There is a lot of complaining, as WoW has spoiled its players.
