Welcome to the latest update from the virtual worlds of War Within and live servers, where changes to the mechanics of tracking Mythic+ dungeons have sparked a mix of challenges and innovations among players. As avid dungeon explorers might have noticed, a recent update has altered how mob counts are tracked, leaving many to adapt to new ways of navigating these perilous environments. In this post, brought to you by WowCarry, we delve into the specifics of these changes, the impact on gameplay, and available workarounds.
In the realm of Mythic+ dungeons, precise tracking of mob counts plays a crucial role in strategizing dungeon runs. Previously, players relied on addons like Angry Keystones or Reloe’s Mythic+ Timer Weakaura to get detailed mob counts. These tools provided two key pieces of information:
However, the latest updates have removed the ability of addons to access and display the current mob count as an absolute number. Now, addons are restricted to showing only the mob count percentage and the total required count, which are still maintained as integers in the backend database (e.g., total mobs needed = 300).
The removal of exact count access for addons poses a significant challenge for players who strategize their dungeon runs based on precise numbers. Adapting to percentage-only tracking requires a mental shift and potentially more reliance on in-game calculations or additional tools.
One notable adaptation has been developed through Reloe’s Mythic+ Timer Weakaura. This workaround hinges on the cooperation between Reloe's Timer and the MDT (Mythic Dungeon Tools) Addon. Here’s how it works:
Although this solution provides a bridge over the current gap in functionality, it is not without its flaws. The dependency on multiple addons increases complexity and the risk of failure due to disconnects, zoning out, or UI reloads.
The recent changes to Mythic+ mob counting have introduced an element of inconvenience for players accustomed to more straightforward number tracking. While transitioning to percentage-based tracking might seem daunting, community-driven solutions like the workaround provided by Reloe’s M+ Timer offer some relief.
