Patch 7.2: Es wurden weitere Raidtests angekündigt

In der vergangenen Nacht meldete sich der an World of Warcraft mitarbeitende Game Designer Skordyn erneut in den offiziellen Battle.Net Foren dieses Titels zu Wort und verkündete dort dann in einem kurzen Bluepost, dass das Entwicklerteam am morgigen Freitag, den 24. März 2017, weitere Raidtests auf dem aktuell noch immer laufenden PTR zu Patch 7.2: Das Grabmal des Sargeras durchführen möchte. Dieser Ankündigung zufolge dürfen alle daran interessierten Personen während dieser Testphase dann in die heroische Version des Grabmals des Sargeras eindringen und dort dann mit ihren selbstständig zusammengesuchten Schlachtzügen gegen die bereits von anderen Raidtests bekannten Encounter „Demonic Inquisition“ und „Maiden of Vigilance“ antreten. Da die Bosse den Teilnehmern dieser Tests dann allerdings nur ca. eine Stunde zum Ausprobieren zur Verfügung stehen werden, sollten Spieler auf keinen Fall trödeln und ihren Raid bereits kurz vor dem Startschuss aufbauen.

Folgend findet ihr nun einige hilfreiche Informationen zu dem genauen Ablauf dieser Raidtests und eine Übersicht zu den Mechaniken der morgen Abend auf dem PTR bekämpfbaren Encounter.

Demonic Inquisition:

Anticipating the arrival of mortal forces invading the Tomb of Sargeras, Kil’jaeden has called on his best captors, Atrigan and Belac, to lock down the interlopers and prevent them from using the Pillars to advance deeper into the dungeon.

• Overview: Atrigan and Belac share health.
  Both Atrigan and Belac’s abilities all inflict [Torment]. Reaching full [Torment] results in [Unbearable Torment].
  • Damage Dealers:
    [Confess] when at full [Torment] to collect Remnants of Hope from Belac’s cage and alleviate [Unbearable Torment].
    Avoid attacking Atrigan and Belac during [Bone Saw] and [Fel Squall] respectively, so you don’t incur additional [Torment].
  • Healers:
    [Confess] when at full [Torment] to collect Remnants of Hope from Belac’s cage and alleviate [Unbearable Torment].
    Stagger dispelling [Echoing Anguish] so as not to inflict the raid to too many instances of [Anguished Outburst] at once.
  • Tanks:
    [Confess] when at full [Torment] to collect Remnants of Hope from Belac’s cage and alleviate [Unbearable Torment].
    Coordinate with the other tank so only one has to [Confess] at a time.
    Avoid attacking Atrigan and Belac during [Bone Saw] and [Fel Squall] respectively, so you don’t incur additional [Torment].
• Torment: Torment increases when attacks and abilities from Atrigan and Belac strike players. Players that reach full Torment are afflicted with Unbearable Torment and must Confess in order to remove the effect.
