This from an AAA company? Hotfixing the encounter at the last minute? If anything this smells of bad design, bad planning and incompetent people at the helm. This will have an impact for future WF and blizzard must not only be candid about what went wrong but also explain in details what they are going to do to avoid a situation like this in the future.The game is not doing well but this latest debacle is the icing on the cake...
I can't even begin to understand the frustration of thinking you are so near to clearing it at 50%... only to find out that the goal post was moved further down in a seemingly arbitrary fashion.
I thought people loved the extra mythic phase. Maybe that 5% extra is that exactly, I don't know why people are so upset
This is gonna be just like last tier. limit gets the reset on Tuesday with all gear upgrade and kills it late Tuesday or Wednesday while echo still either doing splits or is forced to go back to sylvanas early due to limit being very close to kill.

Echo has changed something, and we might see a kill today. Really hope it comes before reset!
This is why the race for World First will never be a proper contest. As we get further into the first week, non-US teams gain an advantage to catch up to US teams due to having seen US strategies and having gotten hotfixes relatively earlier in the week. Then the reset comes and hands US-based teams this big window of opportunity in which to easily over-take the EU teams. Given that it's just too hard to tune accurately enough, we need resets at the same time globally. Is it possible to have a single server for the top guilds to use just for Word First? You could mirror the sever on different continents to reduce latency, but keep the same reset time across them all. I guess this is not an official contest so Blizz will feel under no obligation to change anything.
"or the day early reset for the americans".... What about the day head start they had?
What is the point of a race if the finish line keeps getting moved.......
Blizz just literally hotfixed an add during an encounter, and it instantly oneshotted Echo's tank...Removed
So they hotfixed Sylavanas MM health on the 16th (you can see it here Sylvanas#see-also-other it was released on the patch 9.1.0.39335 wich was release 2021-07-16 04:52:06 CE(S)T : https://wow.tools/dbc/hotfix_log.php?showAll=true ) so during the race where all the guild where to focused on the fight to take care, and now they also hotfixe a mob enrage to prevent echo new strategy to compensate for the lack of gear. What did blizzard want for this race? To piss everyone? Next hotfixe they will push the barrier to 40% to not let limit win the race for whatever reasons? Or just hotfixe whatever limit and echo will try next? I thought having a boss that will die at 50% was a bad move but now I hope they will never do this again, this race show to everyone how dumb it is.
soo... 'most epic fight ever' is just boring loooong fight -D.blocked fight, gg blizz.
