#The Shadow Amadel fight is not a fun experience

Shadow Amadel's movement in the WynnExcevation Site D quest, his high vertical jump, is a good idea, but it ruins the tempo of the fight. Because of how high he jumps and how frequently he jumps, there are like 10 intervals in the middle of the fight where all you do is wait for him to stay on the ground for a longer period of time so you can at least land one hit on him. I thankfully was playing Assassin so I had vanish that forced him into staying on the ground because he was not aggro'd, but that only made it marginally better.

I will be honest, because of how unfun it was compared to the entire game I played so far, I genuinely was hoping it was a bug and recorded a part of my gameplay to visibly show it, however, someone else has experienced Shadow Amadel jumping around so much that the fight effectively had intermissions so I assume it is intentional game design and not a bug and that's why I am here to say this boss mechanic stops the momentum of the quest and is frankly irritating in a gameplay standpoint. Thank you for reading this.

I hope the questline gets reworked with fruma

Yeah i'd like the questline to get revamped, but I understand if it isn't a priority. However, the Shadow Amadel boss was truly an unfun experience.

ye wynn has just been around so long that this is content in the game that was made wayy a long time ago before any of our current tools existed

#

and we can't update everything cuz players don't like it when we put out updates that only rework old stuff

#

and reworks often take just as long as making new content so it's not like we can rework faster than we can make new stuff

#

I've been public that I have a boss fight rework idea for amadel but I just don't have the time to make it rn

Out of all the old bosses Amadel needs it the most imo(wynnex in general is the worst questline) I'm totally not just saying this because I don't want my favourite bosses reworked

wynnex theme is really cool... it could be soo much more, but its so old

My issue with wynnex is it barely connects into the lore til the end and even then it doesn't really

Lol, I had the opposite problem (kinda). For me he just randomly was like: “Adios, imma go into the ground and camp you out”. I was warrior at that time.

It is true that vanish hard counters Amadel though
