When you suck as bad as I do at these challenge-like content events, you just have to laugh about it and write a blog post. My artifact is now up to 130, and my ilvL 920. I’m still getting my butt handed to me by the Mage Tower.
They really do make me think of raids. I’m imagining the countless hours I put into progression raid boss attempts and the frustration I had at people who stood in the bad stuff or didn’t interrupt and I think… I’m that guy and I’m playing all by myself.
The Mage Tower is the solo raid. This is truly what it would be like. I put in about 15 wipes tonight on the Mage Tower, and probably another 20 or so wipes over the past week. I’m making minor progress, and I can see that, but it’s just way too reminiscent of a raid. I’m packing flasks, bloodlust drums, potions, and entering with the mindset of progression raiding.

I was reading more on the latest PvP news/info released from Blizzard for the coming BFA changes, and I confess Iâ€m even more confused and/or curious about some of the changes.
Power Scaling
Here’s what Blizzard says about the scaling.
The point of the scaling changes is not to make it so levels or gear don’t matter. A player who is higher level than you and/or has a higher iLevel than you are going to have an advantage.
If not to make it so that levels or gear don’t matter when there’s a gap between a 110 and a 120, then what is the point? To make them matter less? Power scaling was the biggest defense people put up when people expressed concern that War Mode be a gankfest. “Don’t worry because a level 110 will be able to beat a 120, so the 120 won’t so readily attack the 110!†Maybe? That’s not what the blue post says, though. It seems to imply it’ll just be slightly less of a complete blowout.
Wow's BFA Pre-Pre-Patch is here -- at least that's what I'm calling it. This is the beginning of the end for Legion. When you log in you'll get a quest…
For over five years I have patiently waited for the opportunity to jump back into a Mark Jacobs "RVR" game, and in less than two weeks I'm going to have…
