Comment by SuperMonkyFreaking finally. Maybe we can stop having obscene mechanics soon.Comment by Spanky2kSure. But just make sure this crap is disabled two weeks in so that accessibility for the 99.999% of players that don't take part in the race to world first aren't negatively affected.Comment by JessicaveeFreaking finally. Maybe we can stop having obscene mechanics soon.Comment by KrotzThat's actually a great change imo.

It might allow the dev team to be more creative with mechanics as well.Comment by darkyxyzIt's over addon bros...Comment by 1955wowYeah I kind of figured this was coming sooner rather than later. Blizz has had a hard on for WA's for a while now....Comment by nephriteFreaking finally. Maybe we can stop having obscene mechanics soon.Comment by couchpotato2013Freaking finally.

Maybe we can stop having obscene mechanics soon.Comment by zomgzfinally lolComment by SkyreiSo are wow raids going to become simpler eventually or will they just keep the complexity and remove our ability to easily deal with certain things?Comment by HolybratWait forcing players to actually pay attention and not rely on an addon to say "move". Who would have ever thought lol. Returning skill to the game.Comment by PandaabearSure. But just make sure this crap is disabled two weeks in so that accessibility for the 99.999% of players that don't take part in the race to world first aren't negatively affected.Comment by nerdtopiaSo they finally decided to listen to Asmongold viewers who parrot everything he says about the game being too hard because he couldn't clear normal mode Sepulcher on release

More catering to casuals, great idea!Comment by JessicaveeWait forcing players to actually pay attention and not rely on an addon to say "move". Who would have ever thought lol. Returning skill to the game.Comment by metalbearstop designing fights for echo and liquid... fights are too complicated as is. 8 time CE here..... the rest of us are getting sick of this arms race.Comment by SneakybeakyHere's a hot take blizz, maybe don't design such complex mechanics that require computational auras to solve. Or if you do then make them a little more obvious so the auras aren't required.
Lords of dread intermission is a good example, if raid teams didn't have a weakaura it was a mess unless every single person in the raid communicated which was unlikely unless you're a top guild which this comment doesn't apply to. Even then they just used the weakaura.Comment by metalbearHere's a hot take blizz, maybe don't design such complex mechanics that require computational auras to solve.

Ion even said that they are never going back to sepulcher levels of difficulty. so to say that it needs to get even easier is absurd.

Mythic is supposed to be hard so stay in heroic if you can't hang sorry

most of these people saying "finally" prolly havent touched this game at all
