Blizzard nerfs its latest dungeon in World of Warcraft dramatically. Numerous bosses deal less damage and the trash is also more manageable.
Operation: Mechagon is the second “Mega-Dungeon” in World of Warcraft and was part of the major Patch 8.2 Rise of Azshara. Unlike most other dungeons, players can spend several hours here with an average group, as the dungeon features a total of 8 bosses, while most others only have 4 bosses. However, apparently the dungeon was significantly too difficult, as the developers have applied heavy nerfs.
What has been changed? Within the dungeon Mechagon, numerous enemies have been adjusted. In addition to minor tweaks to many foes, there are also a lot of significant changes, making some trash groups now appear much less threatening.
- Acid Splash from Gnawing Slime now deals 10% less damage.
- Gyroscrap from Heavy Scrapbot and Defective Scrapbot now deals 25% less damage.
- For the enemies Piston Popper, the damage from Shoot has been reduced to 75% of weapon damage, and the damage from Shot Sprint to 50% of weapon damage.
- Hammer of the Scrapmaster now reduces the target’s armor by only 10% per stack (previously 20%).
- Shockwave from Scrapper of the Scrapbones deals 20% less damage.
- Trash from Trash Thrower of the Scrapbones now deals only 100% of weapon damage. Additionally, the cast time has been increased from 1 second to 2 seconds.
- The Scrap Cannon of the Weaponized Crabbler deals 15% less damage and its shock attack 20% less damage.
- A bug has been fixed that caused targets of Shrinking, triggered by the Renormalizer of Mechagon, to receive increased threat.
What do the changes mean? If you had problems in Operation: Mechagon in the past few days, you should definitely try again with a group today in the dungeon. This could lead to a much more relaxed experience through the instance. However, the boss fights are still quite challenging.
In Mechagon, you can also snag the cool title Scrapmaster!
What else did the patch bring? In addition to the nerfs, there were also some bug fixes. Many quests that were previously bugged can now be completed again. Additionally, the laser beam from Cyclotron Bombardment of the trinket “Calculator in Pocket Size” can now be interrupted. This should be a relief especially in PvP.
