The Dawn of the Infinite Speed Challenge Nerfed in Mythic+ Mode

The Dawn of the Infinites Speed Gauntlet Receives a Nerf in Mythic+ Difficulty

The Dawn of the Infinites Speed Gauntlet, a challenging encounter in World of Warcraft's latest patch, has undergone some adjustments in Mythic+ difficulty on the 10.2 Public Test Realm (PTR). These changes aim to balance the encounter and provide a more enjoyable experience for players.

• Datamined Nerfs

Through data mining, we have discovered some of the changes that have been made to the speed gauntlet in Murozond's Rise on Mythic+ difficulty. It's important to note that there may be additional changes that are not yet available for data mining. These changes could include the removal of certain mobs or other adjustments that can only be confirmed through testing.

Here are the changes that have been datamined so far:

1. The cast time of Displacement Strike (a big frontal attack) has been increased to 1.9 seconds. Previously, it was 1.8 seconds on Mythic+ difficulty and 1.6 seconds on M0 difficulty.
2. The value of Effect #1 for Displacement Bolt (orbs) has been changed from 15 to 13.

Now, you might be wondering, what exactly does changing from 15 to 13 mean? While it's difficult to say for certain, we can speculate on its implications. On Heroic difficulty, this effect has a value of 12. By comparing the Mythic and Heroic gauntlet encounters, we can observe that the projectile speed of the orbs appears to be slower in the Mythic version. Therefore, it is likely that the orb speed has been reduced by approximately 13%. This adjustment should make completing the gauntlet a much more manageable task!

Testing and Feedback

It's important to keep in mind that these changes are currently being tested on the 10.2 PTR. Feedback from players who participate in testing will be crucial in fine-tuning the adjustments and ensuring the overall balance of the encounter. Players are encouraged to provide their feedback on the official forums or through other channels provided by the developers.

Conclusion

The nerfs to the Dawn of the Infinites Speed Gauntlet in Mythic+ difficulty on the 10.2 PTR aim to enhance the overall experience for players. By increasing the cast time of Displacement Strike and reducing the orb speed of Displacement Bolt, the encounter should be more manageable without sacrificing its inherent challenge. WoW players can look forward to tackling this exciting encounter with the latest adjustments made. While we wait for Mythic+ to unlock, you can always get your Dawn of the Infinite run and claim limited achievements for completing it during Season 2 of Dragonflight!
