Maltic Witch Quest

[mossy lava]

Maltic Witch quest is quite something

i love the new fight but imo 3K hp is abit crazy if u do at level (atleast tried as a mage)

is just a Slog, it feels like a immovable object vs unstoppable force fight. would honestly slightly nerf the hp.

for context i just used random items i found until then.

maybe its just mage being horseshit very early on lol

[grizzled orbit]

It's still 3k hp? They were supposed to have reduced that dam 💀

[mossy lava]

yep i can cofnrim it is still 3K since i had to endure the 2hour clicking match

[grizzled orbit]

3k hp is as much as a regular lvl 60 enemy btw

Im convinced they don't rly test this kinda stuff, they say they normally use spread sheets to determine stats

[wild finch]

I did the Maltic Witch at-level as an Assassin and it wasn't a problem.

[mossy lava]

ye i assume its just mage tax
(mage very early game is actual ass)

[wild finch]

Happened a week or two ago so if any of the sweeping balancing hit the Witch it might've changed.

[grim seal]

i did it about an hour ago at level ~14 and the fight went fine

[bronze sorrel]

Nah fr tho

3k hp is a bit much for a level 8 boss

[graceful dust]

it was honestly decently fine for me after learning the attack pattern

you can dodge pots easily, jsut starts to ceome kinda not as chill once totems are real

[soft ferry]

Yeah 3k for a new player is a bit harsh. They often use gear not really helping the class or their playstyle. This makes the fight tedious. I had no problems myself but a friend who started wynn on the new update said he didnt enjoy it cause he dealed no damage.

[pliant quest]

3k is fine, it just makes the fight a little bit longer
although the witch fight isn't exactly balanced around being an endurance fight so maybe it isn't a good thing

[mossy lava]

nah my issue is how on some classes (mainly mage) the fight is a endurace challenge

since mage if u get bad rng with random items deals like 20dmg lol
and mana regen is abhorrent

like the dodging is piss easy its just not fun clicking on the same mob for about 5mins as a mage since i didnt got the 1 legendary wand early that has like 17mr lol

[grizzled orbit]

That's a problem 💀

Longer fights mean you take more damage and risk more mistakes, meaning way higher chance of failure

Super long fights in this game aren't good when they're so punishing

[soft ferry]

An lvl 8 account with random gear got like 20-30dps. This ends up to be a 2 min fight if you hit it every second.

For reference, anni takes about 2 minutes.

[rugged spade]

3k is fine that shit lowket needed more

[humble kindle]

hm this wasnt changed for some reason. ik this was brought up

ill edit the stats

the person who made the mob originally didnt realize the quest was lowered to lv11 and so balanced the mob stats based on lv17

[gleaming cradle]

3k hp is really low for level 17

and imo it's good that it has 3k health instead of being ripped part in 0.25 seconds

[gleaming cradle]

30 dps?? are you using the normal weapons or something? Also spells

[rugged spade]

Idk it felt pretty easy on assassin i just ran around it and used multi hit

Meteor might be a slog tho

[soft ferry]

You guys need to realise that there is a huge difference in us running over the boss cause we by experience spell cycle, pick better gear and overall play way cleaner. Also we assign our sp and our skilltree points. A new player will miss alot of that and do many mistakes which can lead to this boss being very frustrating cause it takes alot of time to kill.

[mossy lava]

oh true i fully forgot about that fact too but ye thats also a very vaild point

[pliant quest]

i beat it w/ 2 spells and a level 5 dagger, and like 2 rares and the rest uniques

[mossy lava]

now beat it on a brand new mage

[rugged spade]

i used like a level 8 dagger with level 5 gear i was just running in circles and using multi hit when i got enough mana

[pliant quest]

at level*
its not too atrocious, just play less than braindead and its easy

[mossy lava]

as some1 who did the quest on multiple classes

[pliant quest]

oh wait wynn's new demographic is youtube shorts kids nvm my bad

[rugged spade]

im ngl if you asked me what kinda moves he had i couldnt tell you

[mossy lava]

mage was the most ass experience i had with that quest actual not hard just annoying af

having a 2-5min left click off with rare meteros (since ur mana regen is horrible and meteros cost a lot)

[rugged spade]

mage naturally has a harder early game but it gets a lot easier later on

[mossy lava]

yeah but i feel like the witch quest should be equal time kill on all classes like imagine a new player picking mage

and gets a 5minute click off since mage moment

[rugged spade]

thats impossible but they could lower the health by a bit idk

[mossy lava]

honestly like 2K HP would be fine

[rugged spade]

yeah

[pliant quest]

equal time to kill for all calsses should not happen imo
certain classes excel at certain things (shaman w/ aoe/cc, assassin w/ close range high damage, etc,) and mage struggling pretty much just here is pretty reasonable

[mossy lava]

the struggle isnt a struggle its pure annoyance

its not like world events where its a fair struggle

its just annoying plain simple

[pliant quest]

👍

[mossy lava]

but yeah ik u cant make it equal obv, but yeah i think either changing it to 2K or 2.5K should be fine in cutting it down abit if ur mage while still not making it like the old witch (even tho some classes treat it like that alrdy)
