More records are falling in World of Warcraft – and this is despite players now forgoing their artifact weapons.
Although the artifact weapons in World of Warcraft have been phased out, there are still new records to be set in the current expansion “Legion”. The first group has now managed to complete a dungeon of difficulty “Mythic+31” within the time limit, specifically in the Court of Stars.
Unusual group composition: It is notable that this is one of the first “record groups” that has taken a Discipline Priest along. So far, these priests in record groups have been somewhat “meh”, as they can hardly deal area damage and are often laughed at as healers. In the end, they even had more than 2 minutes left. You can watch how the run went shortly after the start here:
No voice chat: It is particularly impressive that the group made no use of voice chat in any form. It seems that they were a very well-coordinated team that even had time to chat between pulls.
Weapons from the pre-event are more powerful: It is also worth mentioning that in the current “War of Thorns” event there are weapons that far surpass the power of artifact weapons. Most players likely have an artifact weapon around item level 220 or 230. The new weapons from the world quests during the War of Thorns have a base level of 210 but can be upgraded through a “Warforged” upgrade to item level 250. This means they comfortably surpass the artifact weapons and are several percentage points better.
How do you like your class since patch 8.0? Have you become stronger? Or has the loss of the artifact weapon and its properties severely limited you?
