Blood wrought Enclave:

- Fixed Barakus the GodSlayer mechanic. You’ll need the 3 items that side bosses drop to kill the boss . To make sure you don’t miss any item , we added additional walls from side boss to Barakus Door .
The items descriptions will help you to figure out when to use them.

There's a reason literally EVERYBODY avoids mechanics in BB/BE and it's because they're by far and wide the worst pve content ever seen in ANY game. Every single mob and boss in those dungeons is a giant damage sponge that does nothing with mechanics in place to slow you down even further.

Destro dungeons are designed to be as much of a pain in the ass as possible, while Order has dungeons that are smooth and have actually enjoyable mechanics. I get fixing exploits, but i'd say it's also time to do something about how awful BB/BE is compared to C/T.

Removing the constant AP drain from BB and making trash mobs hp the same as C/T would be a good start.

Did you tried to cleanse the ap drain with Gag self ? If you ignore mechanics then don’t expect to be rewarded for it .

If you have better mechanics post them here !

I know it's not in the notes but Grunbag said they would be in the "next patch" which was today. I'm not sure if the items didn't make it in or if it was just missed off the patch notes.

Thank you.

You better not be hunting my appearance...

I've already called dibs on the candle shoulders. Sorry

This has nothing to do with expecting to be rewarded for ignoring mechanics, where did you read it in my post? Yes Gag self is an option, unfortunately it works 1/10 of the time because it either disappears from your bar or the debuff is reapplied immeditaly since there's invisible mobs spewing that stuff every 25 feet.

I did suggest something that could be done to make BB/BE better already.

Take a look at the trash mob's HP. It's much higher compared to the mobs in C/T.

Do something about the constant AP drain in BB (Why is it even there? What does that even add to the experience other than frustration and artificial difficulty?)
