The War Within: Last Zone, Delves, Endgame

The last zone of the War Within is Azj-Kahet, the spider/Nerubian zone. This zone suffers a little bit from being unfinished story-wise, as the zone's story continues on over the expansion. I don't think it really grabbed me, either. It's good, maybe I was just a little tired at that point.

Otherwise, I've done most of the other content. I've ran the dungeons on Heroic. They're all pretty good. The Dawnbreaker one is interesting as Blizzard tried to incorporate flying mounts and an aboveground layout as the dungeon. Not sure it was entirely successful, but it was interesting. Personally, I disliked not being able to tell where the tank was going to decide to land in the second part. Also, I didn't really know what was going on and died chasing the last boss.

The follower dungeons are also quite good. I did a couple of The War Within to finish some quests, and also tried a levelling one from Dragonflight. The interesting thing is that the NPC tank moves at a pretty good clip, but also stops if you stop. Ironically if you don't know that, you chase the tank, the tank keeps going, which really feels like you're stuck in the modern "go, go, go" environment. But once I realized the tank would only run X meters ahead, and then would wait, it got a lot smoother.

The other major new content is Delves, which have been on a roller-coaster of bug-fixing and difficulty adjustments. I think Blizzard will sort everything out. I do feel like the community seems to take it for granted that they should be able to do Tier 8 even while under-geared. It's not the end of the world if people gear up in lower tiers.

The other thing which would be nice is if Brann had a tank spec. I wish they had used the Chromie tank mechanic from Legion. For reference, the tank loses 2% health every second until 50%, but damage scales significantly with health above 50%. I really enjoyed healing in those Chromie scenarios, and I think Delves would have been the perfect place to bring it back.

I also did the first wing on Raid Finder and even won a healer sword, which was nice. I might look into seeing if I can raid this expansion, though the main guild raid seems full for now.

The War With has quite a nice variety of endgame activities. Having all the activities give caches, but limiting rewards to the first 2 or first 4, is an excellent way to allow the player to pick and choose what they want to do.
