I love that theres no timer, if someone wants to sit there, wait for lust and cooldowns for every pull and take 3 hrs doing a delve for some better gear than they could otherwise with a timer then thats great game design, you should be rewarded for your time and effort
i totally agree honestly, i think M+ without a timer is a good idea also for this exact reason, if u wanna spend 3hours in a mythic +15 ... go for it ...
That wasn't cheese, that was some serious SERIOUS gaming, well done. Props to blizz also for giving u a real fight. The threatening chase n music to compliment. Very well done again Mr. Xar
Solo PvE is great and we knew this since the mage tower, also look at how popular souls like games are atm. Blizzard has great boss design so they could EASILY make a "solo boss rush" style mode with hard encounters that award great loot.
Xar's positivity and the fact that he's having fun playing solo makes me want to give TWW a try. I just have a couple questions for anyone kind enough to help me out. Do I have to raid at all or can I just prog delves as the only content? It's the only thing I'm interested in. Second, is guardian druid or feral viable for this or fun?
You don’t have to raid. You can run Mythic +. You won’t really be able to progress delves. Well I guess you could as tier 8 drops 603 gear if you have a coffer key. Which you will have to engage in other content to get. Wow I feel, after next week, and the months following will give you a product that you can pretty much do what you want to get where you want, if that makes sense. I’d just set goals and ask yourself what you’d like to get out of the game and move forward from there.
I don't think they'll nerf that strat....you're 1 of the best mages to ever play the game and you didn't exactly breeze through it a lot of people wouldn't be able to beat it even with being able to kite it
i got 5 cloaks in a row best part is i used my map on my 4th bountiful delve and i got a cloak out the regular box and a hero cloak out the extra hidden trove i logged off
I did the shadowrealm equivalent of this one on tier 6 with 567 on my disc priest. Literally the longest and most difficult boss fight I've ever experienced so far. When I downed that boss, it felt so good though!
for someone who hates the mythic + mentality delves has been godsent i don't have to do a single mythic + in my life to get gear .And i do hope they revisit and redesign Torghast because that can be good to if they redo it .
Brann got nerfed to oblivion tbh, before the hotfix he carried me on 590 in T8 and did like 90% of the damage plus tanked the entire delve. Now at 602 I'm struggling with a pack of mobs and if I wouldn't have healing as a dk I'd be toast. Tanking also isn't much better, I can take hits better on unholy rather than blood. Plus now Brann only does 3% of total damage and won't take aggro at all. I guess rip delves, maybe I'll do the Zekvir achievements at the end of season bc now it's just undoable when he hits 2mills. Ofc early abusers who soloed him at 585 can keep their void mount, the rest can suck it.
Just took a break from PvP to try delves and finding them quite fun. Also was just making fun of my friend who does mythics at a high level because he couldnt finish lvl 8 while at 600ilvl. I finished level first try 8 at 570 ilvl with nothing but green honor gear and my few pvp purples 😂 Only us PvP players know how to survive without a healer and tank :')
Sorry but if your friend does mythic at a high level and can't complete t8 delves then he's getting carried hard. Compared to any souls games this is braindead easy.
tip for anyone playing priest i solo 8s as spriest i mind soothe and fade and grab web victims or pheromones depending on the delves i can skip fighting 90% of the mobs till the boss as a priest i also got that tank trinket as a warbound trinket on spriest from silken court it shields me for around 3mil when activated based on haste iv also got 8% leech so i can heal my self if i get a couple second
To whoever edit these videos, can you please move the chat to the space above xaryu because there nothing it can block there but now you cant really see the dmg meters which we all know is the true gameplay
i have a question have you always secretly been into pve but never really enjoyed it till now because must admit its fun this season havent honest tried pvp yet but you make it look so easy and class, keep it up xaryu love the content and stuff great for insight and info always come to your videos thank you
I did a lvl9 with my ele shaman 585 gs. Hard as shit. Died 1 time to often but killed boss.. only did lvl8 without dying. This shit is hard. Mage , blood dk etc def has a advantage
Deffo not world first Mage, one of my delve-addicted friends completed it on his frost mage solo 4 days ago (Haveaburitto-Zuluhed to check achieve) but still super fun to watch how people complete these!
All my guildies getting loot from delves. So far I got cosmetics. And a lot of cloaks. Honestly they feel like choreghast but everything is an HP sponge. Might be a me issue Great vid tho!
bran needs to be a tank,, also its mad you had to kite it so much lol i struggle to cast standing still as a mage nevermind running around like a headless chicken and casting at the same time 😅
I think it depends. Delves got messed up later in the day with impossible scaling bs they where doing. So if you did it was before the scaling issues/hotfix that broke everything. Congrats.
Bro Xar are you ok? Is the content overwhelming? How are you reacting to the delve as if you never did it when a couple days ago you did the same one in delve 8. You mention you died in certain pulls but then "assuming you kill X" when you died to it, learned and beat it already. Is that just the new streamer meta thing of pretending or what. Sorry if this sounds weird I'm a long time watcher and it just felt really odd. I have you in the highest pedestal for the "dailies" and in general full honest work. Much love.
Solo play for me became a thing when the first guild transferred, and then each subsequent guild broke up, or players dwindled down.. Hiatus. Now i just have all my alts in my own guild. 😂 "In Gold We Trust". (Seemed fitting) Swissbankin, the mighty founder. 😂 After every expansion level cap i like to go into a previous raid i knew i couldnt solo, and figure out a way to solo it, 1 shot mechanics are weaker, (i mostly play mage, so i like that sort of accomplishment..) dks, pallies, warriors, and druids kinda have it easier with more mitigations and leeching, or regeneration skills.. Solo for mage was like.. "i got evocation glyph and bandages, im good." 😂 Then i just became "this is alot of gold, imma farm this every week" 😂😂😂😂 Ive farmed enough crap on my mage, to support a bunch of alts professions through a bunch of expansions, and the characters are in the 20's and 30s. 😂 And adding a paladin for remix, was probably one of the best short grinds i did.. I considered doing a hunter too for remix but, nope.. i have to find pets and stuff anyway
24:10. Doh 🤦😂 ~26:30 kiting mode activated.. but bummer it reset This is why I chose spellslinger, because of the extra image, and 5% reduced damage.. The more those images soak, the more I can pew pew, and reposition, if needed
At the time he did any class pretty much could do it because Brann was bugged and doing much more damage than he was supposed to, he's doing about 80% of the damage in this video. Much more difficult now. Not sure what classes can do it or at what gear levels, but I was able to get to the end of Nightfall Sanctum as a 610 BM hunter, died on the boss too many times though, did eventually get him down but had no revives left so no achievement.
I dunno why people on Reddit constantly complain that delves are way over tuned and too hard - it’s genuinely such a relief to have something to bang your head against for a couple hours, solo.
they cannot complain about other people in a raid anymore since its solo, but also don't want to admit the problem was "them" all along ... the complainers kind.
Reading the delve chat is insane. People are losing their minds. Like yeah t11 delves aren’t supposed to be easy. God forbid you have to actually know how to play your class for once
Agreed. The "2% vers" ones are super boring. I hope they eventually add power drops from rares and lieutenant mobs how Torghast had them and bring those powers back.

@@BrutalTime you can also occasionally get maps from the side chests of bountiful delves that drop 610 pieces, upgradeable to 626
@BrutalTime you get the keys from open world events which are also solo content and the weekly vault from delves gives you heroic item level
@@BrutalTime The problem is if you want to push m+, you need to raid mythic. Otherwise you will collect gear whole season, that's the change i hate.
You can do the content you like more: delves, m+, raid, pvp, world content… or all of them, it’s up to you the choice!
Did it on Spriest. Pro-tip.. mind control the ritualists. Their damage pools one shot enemies.
Watching you do the last boss was breathe taking
I love how he is having a good time in delves then you go to r/wow and everyone seems to be getting stage 4 cancer from delves.
Did you do this delve run today? I saw they were buffed, people in my guild aren’t able to do them anymore 😂😂
Check date, right top ;)
I can't do mine solo anymore either. Too many mobs target you even though you have no arrgo. Basically, anything hits for 1.2 million damage.

Not take anything away from Xaryu, he's absolutely amazing on mage, but mage is stupid OP this expansion.
What do you use for brann to hold aggro
Crazy skills, was this pre or post buff to Delves?
HUm, could he use the Ring of frost pre pull to give more attack time?
"Arcane is hard" continues to mash 3 for arcane blast only.
Holy crap the amount of damage he throws in this is nuts
The one guy in the chat who was like 'i cant believe they made it this easy' 😂 not easy to find the strat, build and pull this off at all
It is easy. Blizzard should make this way harder.
This makes me interested in playing. I love arcane from older expacks but recently it’s been a challenge. Is frost easier.
would love to see ur dps on those runs man great content

15:38 went down to 28k health for a 1/10th second there

if you enjoy trying hard solo content, Destiny 2 has a pretty big scene for that. basically WoW with space and guns
after the nerf i dont see how some of these are remotely soloable as some melees.

Why don't you use arcane orb much? It's free arcane missiles procs
How do I get your UI?
Dammit Xar! If they nerf mages I'm holding you personally responsible.
Just did an 11 with a friend no deaths got immortal spelunker title and achievement 😊

same loot as the t8s

no, not world first mage, did this 1 week ago.

LoL and his doing Seisbarg mount farm also 🤣
Just let Bran get aggro and tank it while you auto attack the boss
Xaryu saying Delve content was one of the thing he was the most looking forward this expension has to be a script they asked him to say.
No script was needed. Many folks were looking forward to them pre-xpac and are enjoying them quite a bit now that they are live.
bro, this is arcane mage gameplay? arcane barage, arcane missle , rinse repeat? they used to be fun :(
they simplified the rotation but there's so much more to it in terms of things happening in the background. still very complex but way more fun to play than e.g. in DF
