The planar inhibitor boos fight vWGT Deh fuh?

Bloodraven187

So I was in vWGT and everything went smootly up until this fight. It was already tough, and even in normal could stop groups cold and break them, never mind vet. However, the recent upgrades to the boss have actually doubled the difficulty. 2 people get the gray now, which would make a hard fight go a bit smoother and with everything else remaining the same. Getting double the rifts, with 3x the hp to break and double the mob spawn speed, took an already very hard vet boss fight (keeping up the hp is hard with the sheer damage output) and made it twice as hard or more as it already was. Please either take it back to the way it was or drop down the portal count and hp to a more reasonable number.

Also, please don't make the same mistake Blizzard did and think that more and tougher mechanics make things more entertaining for the majority of your players. Trust me, they don't. They just exclude content from players in an ever increasing amount as they frustrate people. Either the people not able to do them readily or the groups that kick them for not doing it perfectly the first few times while they get used to them.

Besides two group members getting the gray screen I have yet to experience what you seem to be dealing with on the Planar Inhibitor fight. Pugged vWGT a few dozen times on my tank and dps since the changes and honestly I find the portals much easier to destroy. Things tend to only get out of hand when multiple players die or someone doesn't understand the mechanics.

In regard to the damage output you are experiencing, is the pinion being swapped or held?

From what I remember even before the patch there were 2 players who got the gray screen and portals when the boss' health was lower than ~40%. Now it's right from the start. So the mechanic hasn't really changed that much. The portals now turn off after 1 LA from bow or staff, and maybe PI or FP even on vet so closing them is no big deal. People fail because they don't know the fight. It's been released exactly 2 years ago so there's no excuse for not looking for guides on internet to learn the mechanics.

It's not double rifts, it's 2 people can now close the rifts, rather than one.

If you can't burn the boss SUPER fast, you need to trade the pinion each time it pops. Like the second it pops.
