Just to be clear, will this update also address the vile realm scaling?

Yes, CheM stated that it would in the other thread.

Yes, I was in the middle of typing up the info when you posted about it.

Please note that there is still a minimum level of 30 every enemy that was scaled down in those raids.

Thanks appreciate the info.

Good to know only Knights are now involved in WoF. Should make it easier for the rest of us.

Which defences and resistances were adjusted? Physical resists are still high in the top two raids.

Also, with levels being 2 lower in the VR, does this mean top level is now 38 for enemies since our top level is 40? Do you think this is an acceptable balance between enemy and player toon level?

I think the top two raids will be fine at level 38, challenging yet not ridiculous.

I think lob and pm need the most adjustment specifically phase 2 pm and phase 2,3,and 4 in lob. A 50k toon should be able to dominate lob and shouldn't have to hit keepers 12-14 times in phase 2 of pm.

Just my 2 cents.
