[BOSS] Reliquary of Souls Phase 1 hits too hard

[Greywolf59]

Links: Essence of Suffering (boss): https://wow-mania.com/armory/?npc=23418 https://wowwiki-archive.fandom.com/wiki/Reliquary_of_Souls#Essence_of_Suffering Fixed issue: https://github.com/WoWManiaUK/Redemption/issues/5720

What is Happening: The boss hits for about 4k damage. Since there is no healing possible in this phase it is pretty much undoable for Naxxramass players who have on lvl 70 with full t6 just 18k hp as tanks and 10-12k as melee plate dps

What Should happen: The boss should hit for far less. I will provide the video if/when I find it again. I think I provided one before somewhere where there was much lower hits.

Oh nice, it even says the damage on wowwiki. Here is the damage on our two tanks. https://i.gyazo.com/3dec3ac85e78482fb0cb68b63eb9b68b.jpg https://i.gyazo.com/59a7a758ff49cb203ed9a821ccb2e516.png

Then I guess there is no need for video, any further proof.

What does it mean closed as completed, please? Is it repaired now?

[Echinaceax]

No @Greywolf59 its not

@fvicaria4drest reopening this, this hasnt been looked into yet 😃

[fvicaria4drest]

We should not "fix" things just to make it easier. If it works correctly we should not change it.

[Greywolf59]

What? Aren't you a blizzlike server? And it does not work correctly and it is UNDOABLE on Naxx realm. And on Naxx it is more important encounter as it is pretty much endgame/main raid together with SWP.

Just look at the screenshotted logs, on the damage. Since those were tanks the lower damage hits are after block probably. This boss has melee speed 1s. Tanks have 18k hp, the rest of classes 9-12k. Max hit on screenshot was 14.3k and there were even much bigger hits on other players. On periodical Enrages the melee speed and damage is doubled (we didn't even make it to the 1st Enrage I'd say). There is no healing allowed, no defense, no armor.

Unfortunately due to the extreme amount of work this would take (a complete rewrite!), and priorities vs. resources we have available, it would be the near side of never before this is looked at. Therefore will close it with the specific label of "not planned for now", so that we can track it such that if in some time in the future we do have a space, we can bring it back to the table.

Well as long as if we get to that boss there will be gm to o kill it for us it is fine. But it is problematic cause this boss are 3 seperate npcs which all need to die to open dooor to top of the BT. I know we csn't demand loot in that case either but... It is almost like ICC to tbc (SWP like RS and wing bosses) so idk how is that to be managed...

[jeyrella]

Yes, call a GM and reference this. They should use .damage for each boss phase, rather than .die.

BUMP since there is only three active issues on this github atm
