So you guys that are testing... spill it. What are the min reqs? I'm guessing 225k resists and 2.5 mil hitpoints?

LOL funny guy. I see how it is. Now it's just a Christmas card. I was going to add my Grandma's peanut butter fudge.

You pretty much hit it on the head. When we tested with gninja the other night, he had our resists upped to about 225K and over 2 million HP.

Cool ty for the info Foretold.

Health is still in flux on my end for raid bosses. Resists are fairly well dialed in for tier 1 and tier 2 stuff. Tier 1 resists needed are around 200k and tier 2 is around 225k-230k.

Awesome, thanks Gninja. We'll be ready! Smile

I'm sending you Caiths peanut butter fudge.

Oh one last question Gninja. What about mitigation? Every piece of armor appears to be light on mitigation. I'm not sure if this is intended but is this part of your grand plan for raid requirements?

Gninja · 10-30-2015, 04:53 PM

Are you looking at solo gear in this expansion compared to raid gear last expansion? Mit is calculated based on the level of the item and the tier of the item. a legendary or treasured piece that is level 100 this expansion will have less mit than a fabled piece of level 100 gear from last expansion.

Well, in general yes. Let's use the quested and adv solo gear as an example. So the xpac launches on a Tuesday and our plans are to jump in the second the servers unlock and prep for raid that night. So much of the adv solo gear is better than 2/2 purple malice gear. So even though it's better in all stats we cannot raid with it because the mit is so low? I guess that's what I'm getting at. Are we going to have to continue using our AoM armor and bypass everything other than heroic ToT stuff? It just feels wrong for some reason. An upgrade is an upgrade right? lol

Is that mitigation calculation made before it is shown on the character screen, or calculated in combat?

Gninja · 10-30-2015, 05:28 PM

That calculation is made on the item.

I understand, thanks.
