• Blood Dk Mage Tower Appearance

Obtained at an ilvl of around 915-920, when the Mage Tower itself was 'current content'. Xylem was a fun challenge, very mechanics-heavy and 'my style' of encounter (at least from a DPS perspective). To note, THIS appearance I was going for the entire expansion; I like to call it the 'Two-Handed Mogu Thunderfury'.

03:55 PMPosted by Hey Mates, I've made a guide for any other blood DK's that might be struggling with getting the mage tower tank challenge completed. I've tried to be as comprehensive as possible and even then I still probably missed things (sorry). If anyone wants to check it out you can find it here Cheers and good luck.

If you have the belt and are around 905 you can do the challenge. If you don't it makes it almost impossible, yes you can get lucky but if you aren't 915ish without the belt its not skill based. 08:49 AMPosted by If you have the belt and are around 905 you can do the challenge.

This is just my 2 cents but I don't agree at all. The belt is amazing, but I had lots, and i mean LOTS of sub 5% wipes not using the belt. Those wipes were caused by me being terrible and freaking out in P2. I don't think DK's are as locked to legendaries as other classes are in this challenge. Again just my opinion.I was 901 no where near 915 and would have had kills using prydaz and stride, stride and skullflowers etc if i wasn't such a baddie. It's extremely skill based in regards there is so much going on that you have to be aware of, and RNG luck based at times.

But, you don't need to be 915 if you don't have the belt to complete this. 08:49 AMPosted by If you have the belt and are around 905 you can do the challenge.

Did you complete it without the belt? Because what you are failing to realize is we don't have the damage to beat the annihilates if you aren't 912-915.

If you have the belt you can complete the challenge since you have the extra CD's. As I said yes in theory you could get lucky with RNG but I have yet to encounter anyone below 912 who didn't use the belt. I've gotten him to 4-8% over 15 times now, and I am not using any orbs in phase one.

Aside from unavoidable NPC deaths the only thing killing me is not having a cooldown for that last annihilate. 08:49 AMPosted by Hey Mates, I've made a guide for any other blood DK's that might be struggling with getting the mage tower tank challenge completed.

That is not true at all, when i completed it i was 901 ilvl equipped. Hot tip, use grontooth war horn 815 heirloom trinket 10% dmg buff to demons:P dont be whinging you need certain legendaries. I dont have belt, and no movement speed legendaries. If you have the belt and are around 905 you can do the challenge.

You are 912 on the armory. 912 in a log off set ffor ilvl lol, not a tank set, unless frost helm legendary is good for tank set:P nub. Stoip making excuses for being bad and not being able to do the challenge, i was 901 ilvl on completion of the challenge, deal with it.

Can tell just based off your wowprogress, you havent done one mythic+ over 15 so without a doubt you just dont have the skill level to do it, until you can overpower it in tomb of sargeras gear, or maybe the raid tiers gear after that. This guys guide is good, definitely doable in 901ilvl, definitely dont need belt. That is not true at all, when i completed it i was 901 ilvl equipped. Hot tip, use grontooth war horn 815 heirloom trinket 10% dmg buff to demons:P dont be whinging you need certain legendaries. I dont have belt, and no movement speed legendaries So I read this part of your post, and though 'Yeh Right'. But, oh man, that trinket is a joke haha. On my attempts, when id get to krull DRW was 20secs from coming off CD.

Using this trinket, the eyes/storm dudes just literally fall over. Every attempt when I get to kruul, I have almost 60 - 70secs till DRW is off cd. (I use DRW on the pull).

Very highly recommended trink. Now I just need some more RNG luck for the last phase, but using this trink has made me a ton more confident.

This guys guide is good, definitely doable in 901ilvl, definitely dont need belt I completed it, I play on Illidan and it only tracks top 100 runs, I've done plenty of +15 Mythics.

Even after completing it, was total luck. You have to pray the Orbs don't over lap etc. I was getting him to 4%ish almost every attempt before running out of ways to live through Annihilate. Switched to blood mirror and got him second attempt. Back when we use to log I was always above 85% on fights(Normally in the 90%) so its not skill that was the issue. Again without the Belt its not about skill its about total luck.

Your idea of calling someone bad because you got lucky isn't correct. I got lucky and killed it too, don't throw shade because you think you are 'good'.

Lol, you are ridiculous, i had two orbs next to me that i didnt need to use, 3 annihilates taken, is superrrrr easy to deal with. Such luck involved.

Ridiculous just stop. No belt, no need just let the OP post his guide, that he did at 901 without all the gear you claim that is necessary unless you get lucky. So being able to do dmg in time before too many annihilates is LUCK. Gotcha.u clown. 04:09 PMPosted.

Saying Its only luck that someone beat it, because you couldn't, just proves you actually know its a lack of skill. It's just that not having certain items, mean you have to make up for being by being good.

This was an amazing challenge that I really enjoyed (not at the time) working towards. Hopefully this guide helps you guys obtain the artifact skin.
