With yesterday's Artifact changes, many different activities in World of Warcraft suddenly became easier like the Mage Tower Challenge and many raid bosses.

With our Artifact weapons unstable with power, their power seems to be increasing as time passes. Earlier today players noted that the instability had further increased their powers, with Concordance of the Legionfall now reaching rank 76. This likely indicates that the instability will further increase our Artifact's power until the pre-patch release, when the power will overload and turn our weapons into stat sticks.
