Well tbh, shouldn't trials cater to a wider audience then a select few? If the fight is truly as hard as being proclaimed here then I hope they do nerf it as everyone should have a shot at the trial.

That said, current trials are too easy for my liking so them being somewhat harder would be extremely awesome and having the difficulty the bosses have now for hardmode would be even better in my opinion.

But what Zen certainly should avoid is making sure that 99% of the playerbase cannot do the trials, atleast now almost everyone is able to do the first and second boss and that is in my opinion a good thing, keep them accesible & fun but just a tad harder then they are now. (or maybe a tad or five)

This fight will be much more easier with all the missing buffs (pvp, barrier, warhorn, better gears). Eventually everyone is going to find an easy strat for this anyway, I don't see a problem with it being difficult initially.

Good sir, that is very impressive!

Couldn't agree more and I really hope they won't nerf it to the ground, not after finally having a boss that requires paying attention.

Edit: If I may ask, did you run into any sort of "enrage phase" when his health dropped below 30-35%?

we'll see how it plays out, but just giving my 2 cents on the subject. ^^ I am happy that the fights atleast take some time to master and that is the most important as currently it's just zerg and kill.

Nope, no enrage, he does the same things over and over again.

What is the encounter like? I am skeptical after a handful of failed promises that anyone can capture the challenge of old-school WoW raiding.

Wrong game for that goal.

Actualy, i can see that they have ALL of the PVP buffs
Emperorship bonus, scrolls and probably alot of enemy keeps for crit and damage.

2 or 3 tanks?

Some PVP buffs weren't working and we don't have all of them all like we do on live. They seem to have fixed the buffs and the problem with templates now.

@magnusnet
The trial is designed for 2 tanks. Having a 3rd person to do a bit of off tanking could be useful.
