Chi-Ji event task 4: complete heroic annointed blade with only casters seems bugged for me. cannot complete it.
anyone knows a workaround?
I learned from other sources that you should avoid any class boon coins during the run.
and I can confirm, I just did it with anduin+velen+xyrella and voljin+seline+tamsin. Just dont pick up fighter, caster or protector boost coins. Other than that you are free to pick up spirit healers.
Didn't take any boons till the end for lack of bugs.
Ahune - usual beasts stategy; Mukla + Krush + Rexxar / Anacondra. no cheese needed Lokholar - Mukla + Krush + Alexstrasza; seems undoable without "To the Death" on Krush. stack speed on Alex / attack from Mukla/Alex if possible to reach the boss Balinda - Malf + Gaff + Bru'Kan. 2 times
is this event supposed to be fun? Because I'm pretty sure trying to do H Lokholar with only beasts and dragons is the polar fucking opposite of fun.
Just trying to survive trash with such a comp is torture and the one time thusfar I actually made it to Lokholar with an almost intact team I got the STUPID FUCKING POTATO, which is basically an auto-loss vs Lokholar himself.

agreed. while some of the tasks are creative, some others are just dumb.
I follow Old Guardian on youtube. pretty chill and helpful guy. If anyone needs something like a guide, take a look at his videos.
oh look.. the one time I actually luck into To The Death.. and I get murdered by an Iceblood Garrison..
literally destroyed the entire party
I've complained about this trash before.. how if you don't have a party that can take down the peon in one turn AND something that can take down grunts in two or fewer turns (while also managing whatever the 3rd enemy is), you just fucking die. Your whole party. Not a ton of options when you only have 11 total mercs to choose from.
I don't remember being this upset about.. anything... in awhile
Same comments appeared when most of people gone to wintergrasp heroic. I guess these quests are aiming for new mercs from patch in you build, so it becomes less difficult.
Make a build with 3 mercs only (Krush/Mukla/any dragon/beast healer; i chose Alexstrasza because of heal has no cd and she does a lot of damage to fighters), and roll to the death on Krush in 3 first fights. If there was no - restart)
I did finally get past H Lokholar on like the 5th run.. and effectively without treasures, too.. Brightwing/Chi-Ji/Yulon.. and just got lucky during the fight with enemy abilities not killing mercs they could have. All three were equipped with the +fire/nature/hp for beasts and dragons treasure, which again, -does not work at all-, so they were effectively naked.
A few of the new treasures seem to be broken; I noticed the +fire/hp for humans and elementals one that Balinda can pick up doesn't work either.
I tried 5 times now on the anointed blades, but as stated above unless you get the "non crit" on a few toons your buggered it seems.. Tried Old Guardians build 4 of those times but you are dead after 3 turns as soon as the middle guy gets 40 attack and can 1 shot 2 of your mercs
I decided this is too frustrating and random so its the only quests i wont complete unless they nerf them, i not got the patience for it.... (I done every daily since it came out)
I finished blade 2 times with it comp a row, just 1st time it was with bug and didnt count.
On the boss place Uther and Anduin left/right, take Uther's item for bubbles. Try to find +5/10 (10/20) Alliance treasure, or at least +3/6 on humans. Next is Tamsin, even if she dies - there is a 25/25 taunt, and Vol'Jin Natalie will finish the boss easily

Vol'jin/Natalie get massacred by that point since the bosses hit multiple and oneshot with huge attack buffs, as well as healing on kills. Maybe I'm just lacking something. I know I'm lacking Uther's equip because I've not rolled enough Qs for him. Voljin's only on R4s and Natalie only on R3 for beam/equip, but that's most of the damage that the abilities do. I presume it's a case of just hit the middle one and AE with the few AEs when you can?
Maybe I need to max out these casters I never otherwise use, which is a LOT of grinding. I've got the boss down to 23HP or so by the time I'm down to the last two, with the others on 50ish.
ETA: Snuck it with Velen's nuts treasure of resurrect all, paired with a heal on Uther to get the sweet, sweet cleaving hammer smacks. Not a very good task, IMO.

Wow that was the key for me, i tried a few more times today out of shear bloody mindiness and even had the Elite and normal Rez skills but they died before they could use them... tried this and didnt even need vol or nat, only lost uther! great thinking! i had pondered a Jaina build with ice block, forgot about uthers bubbles
They should be fine if you don't get boons/some of the mysteries. Stranger seemed fine for me, as did portal, but best to avoid all non-combats other than resses. Have heard of potato breaking it, wouldn't be surprised if sabotage! did too, and heard about boons causing issues.
The all casters and the all beast/dragon team ones are utterly stupid; all-casters was hardest for me. The all drag/beasts was okay; just used a team of 5, three dragons to handle trash and mukla/krush cheese for the boss. If you don't get to the death, restart. Needing that cheese is utterly ridiculous, though. Two very badly designed Qs.

Cool thank you
Hello,
how I can win 3rd task "Destroy Heroic Mad Bomber without doing any damage in the Barrens."
I can heal something but I can´t kill oposite caster or archer.
Yeah, just load up on healers and wait for the bombers to kill themselves. I used Alexstrasza, Cornelius, Lich King
Thanks, I had hot potato. Without hot potato works it
Finished the chain.

Yes. I am also watching him.

oh also? All of the treasures that are supposed to give +fire/nature and health to beasts and dragons are completely broken and do absolutely nothing

Yepp, I can't even get to last boss with all Mercs alive.
Try Anduin/Velen/Uther + Vol'Jin/Tamsin/Natalie
