I had an equipped item level of 901 when I completed the challenge and I really don’t recommend going any lower if you can help it. I personally did not use food or runes but that might also be a good idea. You will need one of these for each pull (with the exception of the Flask, which persists through death). Tome of the Tranquil Mind (Optional, will explain) The difficulty level I encountered has most likely diminished, which means an easier time for you guys! I wish you the best of luck!Ĭourtesy of WoWhead’s comment section THE PREPARATION Supplies However, I also completed this before Tomb and all that new gear came out. It is meant to be difficult and frustrating at times, that’s part of the experience. This challenge took me dozens upon dozens of wipes so don’t expect to waltz in and defeat it right away. How exactly did I do it? And can you, intrepid reader, do it too? Let’s find out, after the cut!īefore we begin though, a little disclaimer. But then, one fateful Sunday, on my very last attempt for the day, the stars aligned and I, Fussypants, holy paladin extraordinaire, completed the trial. Only after about 10 item levels of gear improvement, over a dozen new traits, and a hundred attempts, was success within my grasp. ![]() And then there was me, barely 890 with just two legendaries.īut when has being underprepared ever stopped a determined paladin? We’re talking 910+ ilvled gear, kited out with the best. At first, the only holy paladins I knew who’d successfully completed the challenge were all mythic raiders geared to the nines. And of course, a deep knowledge of one’s class. However, it required either an insanely high level of gear or a lot of RNG luck. The challenge was completable, the handful of successful YouTube video tutorials could attest to it. Then, when the Mage Tower was down, we’d all farm Nethershards to pay for the 100 Shard cost per attempt. ![]() ![]() For as long as the Mage Tower Building was up in the Broken Shores, myself and a host of other players would spam the challenge in a dogged attempt to beat the challenge. Rather than take that as a hint to wait until Tomb of Sargeras, myself and a number of other crazy individuals decided to give it a shot. That’s right, these trials were made with the assumption that you were wearing gear that wasn’t even in the game yet. However, each trial is a beast in it’s own right.ĭespite being released when the Broken Shores dropped last patch, the Mage Tower Artifact Challenges were in fact tuned for gear from Tomb of Sargeras. The trials vary in difficulty, with the general consensus being that the tank and healer ones are perhaps a touch more challenging. There’s about five different DPS only challenges (including one for Disc Priests) and then a tank and a healer one. The Mage Tower Artifact Challenge is actually a collection of solo trials with different versions for different specs. Pushing my own skills to the very edge to achieve some crazy goal, now that’s one of the most exciting parts of the game for me! However, not even I was prepared for the Mage Tower Artifact Challenge. I am always up for a good challenge in the World of Warcraft.
