WoW Europe: Magtheridon and Gruul djustments by 2.1.0
It’s no surprise that Magtheridon, a boss in the World of Warcraft, is a pain. But while a recent bug fix has (finally) made this nearly un-killable boss hunt a little more tolerable, Blizzard is announcing the possible schedule for their adjustments to help further balance out Magtheridon, along with the equally notorious Gruul, another boss. As Blizzard spokesman Crezax stated (over at the official WoW Europe forums), you can expect these changes in patch 2.1.0:
Right now, the changes are planned for 2.1.0. We’d like to see the changes on the PTR (Public Test Release) before pushing them live.
As Crezax says, players will have to wait until PTR ends before Blizzard gives the new boss adjustments a “go” signal in the normal realms. Patch 2.1.0 is TBA (to be announced) at the moment, although WoW Europe’s forum members are looking at a waiting period anywhere between 3 weeks to 2 months.
For the guys who have the fortune of not running into these two bosses, Magtheridon was considered un-killable due to the Channeler’s Dark Mending spell bug which healed Magtheridon more than expected (the bug has recently been fixed). Gruul on the other hand, was made infamous for its ability to kill most party’s tanks as soon as its buff stacks maxed out.
