lmao even layer 4 is a joke. I didn't die a single time before layer 7, though I did do Gauntlet on a monk, which are pretty OP in Torghast, but I still never came even close to dying. I love Asmon and his content in general, but the incessant repetition of "lmao this is so easy this is so easy" on the first layers gets so annoying.

You can actually farm the whole set in a couple of days.. Just make a trial character, get the BFA Quest, go to Boralus, do only the introduction quest until you unlock the portals, get the heart of azeroth, activate the world quests on the ship and you are free to queue for Warfronts as long as you player the war campaign with one of your characters.. takes like 5 - 7 min until you are ready and you can do it like 40 times a day if you want to 😂 Had the set in like 2 days.. ✌️
you can just feel the desperation in McConnell there. he really wants his boy back to play wow with. problem is he went on to play other games and seen so many examples of games 'doing what wow does but better' in one way or another. (especially with the last two expansion to go by example) oh he'll still play from time to time but its no longer his main game unless blizzard gets its act together. Sad to see WoW in this state.
@@RiseInAfterlife Nothing wrong with being a wow andy. I too believe wow is superior to all other games even in this state. I just love the game and thats it.
That LFR take is pretty fair. I only play solo and I literally only do LFR to see the story and see no reason it should provide any rewards except standard queuing rewards like gold/power
As resto shaman it works like this: reroll until you get the damaging healing rain from first kill. Stand in healing rain. Win. All the way to layer 8.
I 100% agree with Asmon about LFR, turn it into story mode with bots and just give out some Quest level loot that you would get from doing world quests.
What if they made LFR the games defacto jump puzzle system. Rewards for completion as a raid group, encouraging group cooperation OR if you want to lone wolf the whole story event and get to the end early, theres a bonus for that too. Rewards would rarely drop gear with decent raid level stats, but mostly low hanging fruit like food, crafting mats, pets and seasonal items.
@@wozzielfc401 There are more people who play PVP than many realize (gives half an exp bar on frontlines if you use duty finder dailies). Though I think it is probably for now new mode spectacle. CC is pretty popular as they redid all the classes and each fight in 8 minutes at most.

The elite warfront sets were only hard to get for a few months, after the world quests I got all of the elite sets in one day and it really wasn't the focus of that day, you can get the whole set right now for any armor class type in a sitting.
@@jake3846 you can get the elite warfront gear from the rares in the zone and idk if I just got lucky or something, but I finished mine the first week of the arathi zone update after the warfront was opposite faction's turn.
Asmon complaining about how hard it is while playing like an LFR champion is possibly the most entertaining thing I've seen in a while. He just mashes buttons and panics when something goes wrong, stands in all the bad shit and never interrupts anything.
Hard agree with the sentiment of LFR not providing "gear" to some extent, I think it should offer gear that's not actually viable there and then, It should be a "stepping stone" into Raiding/Harder end game content where in which the players LEARN mechanics progressively and interactively, Current LFR is go in and whack the fuck out shit without paying attention, Kinda sadge.
"It should be a "stepping stone" into Raiding/Harder end game content" - The issue is that people in LFR are so shit and the bosses are just sponges that deal no damage, it's legitimately more frustrating than normal raiding.
@@Aftershock416 oh yeah I completely agree after doing every boss on LFR when discussing tactics for new players/raiders you really see how little people pay attention it's crazy
watching this reminds me how bad asmon actually is at the game. its funny seeing comments from ff players saying asmon will be good at ff because he's some high level mmo player. they should watch this lol. like he doesn't even press rallying cry once in any of these deaths which probably would have saved him a couple of times.
@@jebalitabb8228 I mean I personally don't play much mmo, but I'd still value well written story over a shit one like wow. Original Warcraft used to have such amazing lore and story but when greedzard makes warcraft into mmo that's when the story writings becomes garbage. They literally jebaited people with amazing launch trailer only to then shit on their faces with crap games. At least Final Fantasy games have the decency to match their gameplay with their stories and trailers. Wow trailers and their games are like two seperate entities.
Or they could just let you cross faction raid. shouldn't be impossible to implement. And just let guilds be cross faction for said raids.This would also have the effect of people feeling like they don't have to play Horde,so this saves Alliance.
I wish I played wow from the beginning I wanted to go through all the story etc, but it just throws me into Azeroth and well..... while it was fun for a while I had no real direction and I lost interest.
With the amount of people that quit wow for whatever reason, I’m still shocked (kinda) that they haven’t dropped the monthly subscription either to like 7-8 bucks or just making free to play like everything else
Victory rush is so busted in here it hurts so much he aint using it :( torghast is so easy on arms even when undergeared if you focus on healing animas and infinite execute
I'm sorry but as someone who is unable to play as often as he would like due to work and family commitments, LFR is nice to get to see some raid content, even if dumbed down and the story but having no gear is BS. It's still nice getting a reward and it's lower ilvl so less elitism please.
I never complete content like the jailers gauntlet, I got it on a prot warrior layer 1-4 Solo and I got the mount. It's not bad if you don't stand in AoE's.
that moment at 16:23 really shows how desperate wow fans are, McConnell is always shitting on ff and other games cause he's mad asmon isn't playing as much wow as before.
I'm from illidan server ..... We go hard ...I can't even pug nowadays with out the achavment already ..... But I use to pug with blood legion ..in wrath

yeah fuck that this game already barely rewards you for doing stuff, this would only lead to longer queue times
I would generally agree, but the gear you get in LFR is trash. So I really don't get why he's complaining about that.
@@ZelixPL Did you even see the video? The idea was to have bots fill in slots since it's only for the story, the queue times would be fine
These two have the exact same relationship and energy as Mordecai and Rigby from Regular Show
I would unironically be entertained again if McConnell and Asmongod does arena 2s
Mcconnell begging people to play wow at the end... woof.
cry is free
WoW is such a graveyard of a game
I beat that layer 1 torgast yesterday at ilvl 207 with a resto shaman. Recommended 220. Their buffs are about as strong as fury warriors.
I can't believe Asmon is still farming for that god forsaken sword lmao
McConnell at the end cracked me lmao, love that guy
thanks
Thats because you are simpy
5:15 me waiting for him to hit the elevator switch
The thumbnail of asmons reaction is how I feel when I see asmon playing wow too
I never played wow in my life but watching these two in raids and their banter is friggen awesome.... Great unscripted content
As resto shaman it works like this: reroll until you get the damaging healing rain from first kill. Stand in healing rain. Win. All the way to layer 8.
Honestly if they changed LFR to being a story mode only type thing like he said, I would be perfectly ok with it.

I am not a wow player, so I am horribly confused... Aren't this supposed to be a 5 man dungeon or something? Why is everything dying immediately?
Torghast has a single player mode
Thorghast scales
Old raids and dungeons are insta kills becuase power creep, Torghast is single player mode and scales.
