thank you so much, I just came back to wow after so many years and went for guardian but wanted that skin so badly, any other ressource sent me in the competely wrong direction with EC and stuff, just tried your approach out and made it FIRST TRY!
Finally got this, even after the nerfs. Your guide was by far the best and most in depth in my opinion. Thanks so much! The Fel Werebear looks awesome!
Just wanted to say thank you for this guide! So many other guides say to wait and use the orbs for Kruul. After seeing you use orbs for the spirits it makes this fight so much easier. Did this fight for about 6 hours with no luck. Saw your guide and how you pick your talents, along with your strategy, and it took me 3 tries. Thank you!
Your spec and the video helped me immensely, thank you. After more tries than I care to admit (42), getting past being yeeted off the edge and then having one of the NPCs die during phase 2?? I finally got it!
Finally did it after so many failed attempts. after watching the guide, it took me another 15 tries, but i havent played Bear in a long time. The fight really gets hectic when Kruul spawns and the Elementals knocked me off the platform alot. but your breakdown really helped me alot, Thanks!
@@Amplifymagic Totally agree. It’s also a great place to just press buttons on any class as well, without needing to be caught up with the current patch.
I love your video, I can't wait to start playing. I get home in 6 months-ish I am really looking forward to playing my bear, and my resto-shaman. Thanx for your great videos!!
Lunar beam becomes a super short cd defensive and offensive ability. You can basically always have barkskin or beam available. Feels really good to me.
Knowing fight mechanics and having thorough knowledge of your toon's abilities. This is really _the_ challenge of WoW in a nutshell. Only good players have both of those. The rest of us are just rage smashing buttons until shit dies or we die lol.
One of the hard things to write for is that not everyone has 10+ years under their belt, and realizing that something that might be obvious to me or others is a gameplay mechanic that others have never seen.
this fight feels so difficult to read, i have no idea where damage is coming from at any given time or where the knockbacks are coming from, feels like i get overrun by adds no matter what i do. extremely frustrating
man i did all the 36 Mage Tower challenges in legion and the re-released 7 for the spell tome mount. But doing this again is tough with no lego effects.
Aurostar rare drop is your only other option, the rest were tied to the artifact and cant be unlocked anymore. Aurostar is a Rock version of this llocated in emerald dream
There are some solid non standing appearances from various legion content revolving around the artifact. Viewing them at the artifact forge, the seed, should also show their unlock requirement. Bone Bear, and some vibrant color options are still great. Also there is a glyph of Ursol Chameleon which randomizes your bear form every time you activate it. One for every form type I think.
When they're bunched up their casts will all hit at once. You need to hit Incapacitating Roar right as they start the cast, but before they start channeling it. Typhoon doesn't stop the wind-up, and nothing else will stop all at the same time. Sitting by a portal and deleting one of them with a couple Mauls before grabbing the rest can help keep melee damage down. Their melees apply a debuff that increases damage from those melees. So after gathering them you only want to stay in range to Incap Roar the casts and then run tf away finishing them off with moonfire spam.
I wonder if this will be more difficult or easier after Season 1 starts today. Will they tune it up with the higher item levels now or will it be easier because they didnt?
@@kaapekkaapek6600 if its not Frenzied Regen then it’s Renewal, a healing orb, or passive healing converted from arcane damage dealt which is a talent in the Guardian talent tree.
I'd like to make this easier for you, there is a midnight feast from The War Within that gives you full stats (450ish) and the new Darkmoon Trinkets provide the full stat proc benefits, this doubles/triples your base stats that get scaled down in Mage Tower.
Yeah I think that got fixed a good bit ago. They should just normalize the consumable scaling or something. Blood Sausage is probably back to being the go-to, 39 primary I think.
I tried to get this form back in the day but was never able to complete the original fight. After endless tries, I gave up because there were too many bugs. Falling through the map more than a few times gets under my skin. Now I see you in the mage tower... Is it still possible to get the guardian form from the mage tower? How is that possible after Blizzard said it's not possible to get that form after it was finished?
One thing i dont understand. You get no stack of his Aura Of Decay,even when you stand in his corrupted zone. How come this ? Im unable to do this without getting the debuff.
Might need to finish the scenario to open the Broken Shore as a questing hub. Check in the Legion-Dalaran flight point area for a quest? Maybe Khadgar.
Have you thought about trying with Elune's Chosen > Lunar Calling (turns Thrash to Arcane damage) so you could sit on eyes? This place gave me trauma so I'm not going back haha
No, I didn’t! Despite me saying in the video that thrashed turns into arcane damage lol. Elune’s Chosen looks a little better now. I do dislike Lunar Beam, they should have given Guardian Fury of Elune! Great observation!
This fight is insane. It has to be broken in this current patch. I have tried like 100 times. I can get to P2. My two teammates Prophet and the other one, keep dying so fast. I almost downed the boss. I had him to 6% and Prophet died when I ran out of the health circles on the ground
yeah something is odd. I'm going to try his scaled down gear approach, but damage isn't even comparable. I don't get the first boss down or the mobs nearly as fast with the same moves, same build. Seen a few of these videos where their damage and mine are way off, and while i know scaling is weird, I was in with 610+ gear. If this video is no gems no consumables then it must just scale differently based on some unknown factor
I will never forgive Kruul on Guardian because that class has to bend far more than any other class just to break even. It is indeed a fulfilling challenge but sent the wrong message for Tanks. That's how I felt about it.
I’m not sure I see that. Guardian bosses have the lowest health of all the tanks except maybe Blood Dk, and currently Guardian does incredible damage in the tower. Do it for a little bit on Warrior and you’ll one-shot the druid challenge imo. Different strokes for different folks maybe.
Afraid to even step in to try and get it again...yes again. When it came back in dragonflight I one shot it. Got slapped with a 6month ban along side the pilots ...
yeah i bit my ass today as i found out it existed and i can NOT get it anymore.. fk me.. cause i love icebears 😢 that's the sad part of beeing a dirty casual who takes breaks i guess damn..
thank you so much, I just came back to wow after so many years and went for guardian but wanted that skin so badly, any other ressource sent me in the competely wrong direction with EC and stuff, just tried your approach out and made it FIRST TRY!
This made my day maybe my week!
Did you go to pandaria to get the gear he suggested?
@@natecox307 no, just went in, got some of the non scaled down goodies though but it didnt feel necessary
Finally got this, even after the nerfs. Your guide was by far the best and most in depth in my opinion. Thanks so much! The Fel Werebear looks awesome!
Just got that sexy bear form because of your guide! Thanks for the useful information dude appreciate it.
Love to hear it, gratz on the felbear!
Dude! Amazing guide! Got my bear form and I am super happy. Cheers
Thanks so much! I love hearing that it helped.

That's awesome! Losing an npc is so frustrating but well done! 42 attempts is solid. Out of every 40 pulls I probably get yeeted 15 times lol
H there, thanks so much for the guide! I got this fight done today in 2 tries after adjusting gear & consumables with what you recommended. Thank you!
That’s awesome, glad it helped!
Am ii doing something wrong? I tried a regular M+ build and I lit get one shotted at around 70% hp on 1st boss... getting too frustrated

Thanks so much for posting, this stuff makes my day
I remember struggling for these when they were brand new, some of the hardest but most fulfilling content in WoW.
@@Amplifymagic Totally agree. It’s also a great place to just press buttons on any class as well, without needing to be caught up with the current patch.
I dont comment much but this build was definitely one of the best for the challenge. Thanks!!

Thanks so much, I’m glad you enjoyed it. Good luck until and safe trip home!
I tried.. No fucking chance, i take so much damage in phase1-.-
Lunar beam becomes a super short cd defensive and offensive ability. You can basically always have barkskin or beam available. Feels really good to me.
I’ll give it a go, thanks for the perspective!

DUDE!!! Thank you soooo much I just completed the challenge, I can't believe I finally did it and it was thanks to your guide
Love it, congrats! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, you beautiful soul.
finalllly i got it, thanks for the guide :)
Love to hear it, congrats!
this fight feels so difficult to read, i have no idea where damage is coming from at any given time or where the knockbacks are coming from, feels like i get overrun by adds no matter what i do. extremely frustrating
I dont understand i do the samething but a do no damage to him with the same talent and the same rota
same
ty much help i got it because of your video :)
Glad I could help!
great guide man I think I still lack the skill but I feel empowered to try a few times more
You can do it!
man i did all the 36 Mage Tower challenges in legion and the re-released 7 for the spell tome mount. But doing this again is tough with no lego effects.
They should have given players a feat for all 36 towers in Legion. We got one for Shadowlands onwards but still would have been nice!
what addon you use to see the life bar of the boss and the powers
KUI nameplates
Thanks for this! Just coming back after years. Are there any other standing bear forms that are easier to get?
Aurostar rare drop is your only other option, the rest were tied to the artifact and cant be unlocked anymore.
Aurostar is a Rock version of this llocated in emerald dream
@@TheJacob232thank you!

everytime the ads starts casting, i get one shot.. how is that?

Thanks, just got mine!
have u considered using the new feast or darkmoon faire decks? both are bugged and dont scale down properly
Say what. I'm going to try that right away
@theloa7154 wanna report back on the trinkets? Hadn’t heard that one yet.
Do any of the darkmoon decks still work?
I agree, bring it all back. Give Legion completers of the towers an achieve, or Feat of Strength or nothing lol
Omg more Druid !!!! Best class ever
I wonder if this will be more difficult or easier after Season 1 starts today. Will they tune it up with the higher item levels now or will it be easier because they didnt?
It’ll be the same as it was for level 80s before S1 started. Ilvl is tuned to 120 so gear increases across the expansion wont nerf the content.
how he is recovring his helath after he is 5k?
@@kaapekkaapek6600 if its not Frenzied Regen then it’s Renewal, a healing orb, or passive healing converted from arcane damage dealt which is a talent in the Guardian talent tree.
thank you for the guide and not trying to sell me boosts :
guys. use feast buff it stays inside the towe 470 mainstat.
o7 TWW feasts, now gives 7 stat
@lumingaming I did post this a full month ago now
@Lplategames Some folks still trying to use it, figure any place to clarify before they drop the gold is good.

@@SirTomo1 Yeah that feast isnt intended so I’ve cautioned people about it. Hard to say that Blizz would take any action but who knows
Nerfed?
Current feast gives 7 agi.... wasted 400g on that lol. With the DOTC talents I can't seem to aoe hard enough on those extra adds.

It's not the Legion one it's another form that you get.
I feel like I’d trade some of my knockoffs for mapholes 😂
One thing i dont understand. You get no stack of his Aura Of Decay,even when you stand in his corrupted zone. How come this ? Im unable to do this without getting the debuff.
Im getting stacks, my debuffs are below my character
How do you unlock the tower i dont see it !!!???

They nees to bring back a pride mother varient, ita about time now.
I have it! I want the werebear 😂
Thx!
Thank you so much, I finally got it
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
is mage tower up how do you even get to it
Thanks so much!! With your explanation I might get this done👍
Good luck! You can do it!
GOT IT! TY!
Awesome! Congrats!
i cant do it man its very hard ......
You can still get Druid appearance but not artifact?
The Felbear version you can still get, but not the original one offered in Legion. Each class also gets a recolored Tomb of Sargeras tier set.
how do you get to the mage Tower even?
Might need to unlock the Broken Shore via a quest from Legion-Dalaran.
If you view it please give a sub or a like. The man's mind on WoW is a gem. Way to go Lumin
This fight is insane. It has to be broken in this current patch. I have tried like 100 times. I can get to P2. My two teammates Prophet and the other one, keep dying so fast. I almost downed the boss. I had him to 6% and Prophet died when I ran out of the health circles on the ground
That just means run it again!!! Don't give up dude
@ALISHISNOIUS I gave up.
Got it
@@Mriseks Hell yeah
It's so stupid they let us get the bear form, but not cats or any of the weapon skins for other classes.
im getting hit for a total of 700 damage and die instantly this shit is bugged af

@casper_218 I'm legit not trying to brag but like I'm a 1% parser and shit and this fight is broken. It's super fucked up
The puddle under Variss reduces your max health by 12.5% per stack. You'll want to run out before you have less than 3k health.
@lumingaming that's not the issue I had when I was doing it. I just said f that fight i don't care enough.
I tried this for weeks and gave up
Well its not going anywhere. I find people take a good break then come back and nail it. I expect a response in 2025!
i must suck because i cant do any of this lol
can you run me ?
unfortunately I cannot!
I will never forgive Kruul on Guardian because that class has to bend far more than any other class just to break even. It is indeed a fulfilling challenge but sent the wrong message for Tanks. That's how I felt about it.
