Well, internet points.
Thank you SO MUCH for this video! Thanks to you I managed to finish the challenge less than three and a half hours before the patch, with no more platform space and 5% health, on the 36th try. Until I watched this I didn't realize you could actually double-jump fel rush over the Razor Ice...
I had to sub cuz I died laughing at the spongbob ref... Good stuff man.
Minus Achors, this is how I did it, but you made it look easy with it. Thought you noobed out when you jumped INTO the black with meta on 2nd boss but leech kept you alive and saved you space cause he dropped more black on black, nice work!
- Was actually a bit of a derp on my part for sure. But it all worked out in the end. =]
Yeah exactly, it bought you that little extra time. Well done :)
OMFG!! King of come backs!! 112k HP < win in just a few seconds, THAT is how to pull it back from the brink, GRATZ Bay, awesome job dude :-)
End my suffering
Great video man! Congrats!
Wow, RNGesus really likes you.
- A little was RNG for sure. =O
wow ive never watched a Havoc Challenge because i thought it as challenging for DHs as it is for DKs but i must say there a huge difference between these 2 classes. I mean it seems not challenging at all for DHs whereas FDK u rly had to show some skill lul gz to all DKs who've achieved their look and yeah gz Bay.
LOL! There's a questline in azshara for that guy, where he puts his students through outrageous trials that end up killing most of them. You should have killed him outright. Now he gets to return to his "Wacky hijinks", and you get a badass blade... so I guess it is a win-win.
Just did mine as 893 DH, 1 legendary Kiljaden trinket.
Dude holy crap that darkness phase. You just double jump dash dash to him O.O Frost DK jealously there. We have to actually kill those images of him since they give you a full heal and temporary immunity and slowly make our way to where he is located xD
Also as a frost dk: In the arcane phase, if he ever gets the RNG where he teleports before using Draw Power (like what happened right before he hits 10% to you) you usually wipe because he gets 3 stacks of the buff before you get close enough to get
- Yeah. There are definitely differences between the specs. Positives and negatives across the board.
I don't get how you survive that all those Ice Shards surrounding you. He traps me in it, I can't move my character, and I spam Chaos Nova and space bar to try to jump out of there ASAP. But the "teleportation stun" lasts too long, and he instantly starts the Ice Meteor Storm (whatever its called), hitting me for lethal damage before I can even escape the Prison.
I mean, @ 2:05 in the video, you survived in the Prison for a good 5 seconds or more. I last about 0.25 seconds... I even use the neck legendary Magnum Opus for "extra health".
Makes me sad seeing people that have zero knowledge about DHs that they assume that, just bcs it looked easy on this video that the challenge is so easy for DHs and SOOOOO much harder for everybody else. Every class has their own problems on this challenge.
gz btw
I can make it known that this was pretty freaking hard without Achor or Prydaz (7/10 legendaries, lacking BIS and the 2 that are good for this challenge, believe me I was salty when this challenge came out)
I still managed to complete it the first time it was up, but it was freaking hard. If I had played like Bay did in p2 (no offense to him, but it was horribly executed), I had crumbled completely.
It is very easy for DH's with higher iLVL, even without achor or prydaz. If you have 905 ilvl or better its a joke. I have done it on my 907 and 894 DH the different is crazy. It goes from begin a joke to a nightmare.
- For sure. And I still derp'd a bit in the victory pull too.
I'd love to have other characters eventually to try these out with and figure out all the ins/outs. But that might really not be a feasible thing.
Yeah im 878 and it's not fukin gonna happen... -_-
+Bananaclub33 i have my warrior main(fury). arms have same challenge with havoc. So i tried on both and on dh its a lot easier to do cuz of sustain. Still yet not done, but agatha for fury was pain in my ass for abot 60 tries
I always die on the last 10 percent in last phase, rip me got him to 3 percent at one attempt and realized my legs were reed
can you tell me the name of the nameplate add on youre using?
- Nameplates are Shadowed Unit Frames.
the Vbars on the enemies heads is Tidy Plates - Quatre theme.
60 tries and 928 ilvl. Still no luck. I can't believe I still can't do it. Are certain legendaries critical? I have half giants and bracers.
- Hmmm. I don't know. With how gear is now it'll mostly come down to just controlling the encounter. I know that (and I show it) Havoc uses 2 Specs/Legendary sets to make the different phases easier.
Okay, I'm too shitty for that, no patience. I'm 942 now and will try again with demonic 4 set bonus from Antorus :D
I wish I could have that appearance if I wasn't ilevel 875 and suck so much in these challenges.
How do you survive so well? I dont lack the tactics but just the survivability on this guy
- All the Souls for healing, and going into Meta a lot for the Leech.
about the 3rd or 4th razorice he casts, my chaos nova is still on cd. is this bad luck or does this always happen? how do i survive without it?
- I'm not sure. I think there is a pacing to it. But all of his abilities in P1 should be on the same timer?
I don't recall having a problem with it. Eating enough souls in those Razorice phases should always reset Chaos Nova.
Great vid, thx for the insisghts, can you let me know why the demonic specc is used in phase 1, is there any real advantage over a ST specc and going for the burn down or is it te increase in healing thats needed?
- Not sure I follow the question exactly. I have on the Blur chest in P1 for the Leech.
Sry can you clarify when u are running a demonic build talent specc in P1 and a ST talent specc in p2, whats the reasoning for this as opposed to running a ST talent specc for both phases?
- Demonic build resets often because of all the souls you can burst off the Razor Ice. Thusly giving you added healing to "face-tank" Xylem in Meta. It's also a better rotation DPS burst because you only get to hit him in P1 so much. Getting in as much damage as you can before he blinks, or transitions, or ports you, etc.
Great thanks
It says that my flame reaper apperence are not available
- These Mage Tower appearances are no longer in the game. They were during an event in Legion.
the mage that teleports you to him is gonne for me what do i do???
What is this ui u got or your healthbar if u understand me?
- My UI is a compilation of hand picked and sorted addons to make what you see there. It's mostly comprised of bits I enjoy that work for my stream. My current UI update for BFA is not available yet but should be soon.
My healthbars above targets are Tidy Plates / Quatre.
The large forward facing hp for me or target is Shadowed Unit Frames.
How do you pull of so much self healing on demand in the ice prison??
Big Time Gaming you have to immediately nova as your first action in the ice prison
- Demon Hunter AoE Stun has a chance to shatter Lesser Soul Fragments.
Then when you jump out/over you collect them for CDR & Healing.
What ilvl is this guy???!! He makes it look so easy...
- At the time just over 900. I think I show my character sheet in the video.
10:40 he is using 901 gear, his best is 905 it seems
Completed mine a month ago and I was 905
Yeah at 890 ilvl I just get shelled. I'm dead by the time I cross the room. Need more heroic drops.
disgusting how many times you weren't punished for how many times you messed up. Took me 38 tries so yes I'm salty.
- Well, all the previous Dozen'ish+ pulls that I did get punished and died...But I didn't really make too many major mistakes in the victory pull. Just the flubs in the Void phase for sure.
You got sooooooooo lucky with your mirror image blink locations. I've died at least 50x now cause of how far he blinks away, and the double FR strat doesn't work. Then I get screwed by the mirror images' knockback in bubbles.
nice RNG on the shadow phases.
how are you able to detect him out of all those clones...
- The one that is correct has a shiny thing above his head I believe?
and im failing by the darkness phase ..
where is that place cannot find the start
- Only active when the Mage Tower is up on the Broken Shore.
Can i still get these
- Any cosmetics that were directly tied to the Mage Tower back in Legion, are no longer available in the game. Unfortunately. Most, if not all other Artifact skins, are still available to my knowledge. Just not Mage Tower skins.
what addon are you using for the hud in this video ?
- I don't have a HUD addon. So curious what you're looking for.
My entire UI Package should be linked in the description though. =]
i was looking for your UI addon but end up saying HUD, got it now :D
- All good!
Addons?
can this be done in bfa?
- No. The Mage Tower was a special part of Legion only. It's no longer in the game at present.
which addon is he using for combat text?
- Combat Text is via Mik's Scrolling Battle Text.
Then I use the truncated option so the numbers are short. And Calibri text.
ty for the reply. I was under the impression that Mik has stopped supporting his addon but i guess it still works. Cheers!
Is this at all possible as a 880 DH?
- 880 may be a bit low. I've heard of people around 885/886 doing it though.
With Raddons Cascading eyes p1 of this fight is so ez you can spam eyebeam with it
- Yeah. One of the last few Legendary Items I don't have on my DH yet.
I this still obtainable?
- The Mage Towers are not anymore, no. They were Legion exclusives.
@@FinalBossTV noooo:(
@@FinalBossTV want this skin so badly
can someone tell me wtf is in his Z button?
- It's probably the KJ's Burning Butthole DPS Trinket.
I have it bound on all my characters there for when/if I swap to it.
My go-to on-use trinket hotkey.
i wish i could stun the adds for half an hour :/
i still cant do this hahahaha, ill just use tmorph instead
I'm salty this isn't "skill based" like I thought it would be. Looks like you can fuck up and faceroll this with a dps check.
So having a constant dps and not fucking up your rotation doesn't require skill, 'kay
I need yourtell me when Ui set up...... please for the love of all that is holy link it for me :)
- I don't use Tell Me When. I use custom Weak Auras by Wordup.
Details are on my UI page which is linked in the description.
i got 950ilvl on my dh on xylem just use all cd:s at begining and burst it down just skip arcane phase whit arcane torrent if you are night elf you need to just live whit it. second boss you just wait your cd:s
to come up and stay alive and after first minions come let them go to boss and use all cd:s and burst da boss down how easy is that.
Ì wiped on this guy with 4 mil hp left, UBER RAGE
This is so bullshit. He knocks me back every time and it takes me 10 years to get back up. I then instantly die.
I'm about to trash my mf'n house in a minute
hurr durr frost dk way harder hurr durr double jump op. Have you seen Arms doing this? What a joke but no, DH can double jump and dash so that makes it much easier, just ignore the much larger health pool added and the damage taken.
Being a frost dk watching this. Wow. The difference in difficulty "Let me jump over this. And instantly get to him when he teleports" ugh. Blizzard pls
bro, if you even skim those ice crystals its a one shot, same for the disappearing phase
- Yeah. Not sure how Frost DK would do that. Just AMS + Frost Scythe?
Havoc would have to use a lot of resources to kill the Razor Ice. Jumping helps for sure.
The dps check basically limits you to running Breath build so no Frost Scythe there. What I would do was always go into the frost patch with a Rime Proc and always have Remorseless Winter active with some stacks of Gathering Storm.
The first patch you will still have Breath active which will start killing the ones in front of you while you're stunned.
Also every ice chunk you kill gets you a free Death Strike that heals extra. This is super important.
Save AMS for the second one and IBF for the third.
If you can't do it as a frost dk.. delete the game. Omg.
Wanna do mine for me? hahaha
Damn look at all those salty comments lmao, grats mate
So like no one cares that you got them just how so why not explain what you’re doing instead of playing silently...
