I was fortunate to finish all the mythical last night with a guild group and I do agree that the people running them right now are not going to be your average player. With that said having to PUG some of these could suck.
The orb in temple can bug out and go up on a cliff side you can’t reach bricking your run and also they can sometimes just randomly despawn or spawn inside terrain. Apparently all reported in the beta, still not fixed.
My SO was having a hell of a time on sisters in manor as a H pal in her mythic group. I think it’s a combo of lowish dps and not helping with trying to interrupt most of the casts. The magic damage is real for that fight and really is the harder ones to heal in manor.

So someone correct me if I am wrong... Mob scaling by ilvl seems to be a thing even in dungeons? It could just be my perception, but the same healer around 315ish, doing a mythic with a tank that cant even ilvl into random heroics was fine and he was joking about healing as ele spec. Healing a high 340s offering to carry the group required pausing between trash for his short term cooldowns as healing throughput couldnt keep up with mob dps.
Am I crazy, or is the dps hitting the tank scaling with ilvl even in mythics, and scaling stupidly such that getting gear can make you worse?

So for all my whining, the world questing with war mode is a great time, islands are cool (I hated arena 3s to be fair), and the zones like cool. Once they balance classes, adjust some flight paths and vendors hopefully, add islands to the queue screen, and especially fix or fucking undo the abortion that is ilvl scaling? Very high hopes.

Did all Mythic 0s with pug healers as a tank (pal, priest, monk, druid) and never died more than once or twice, usually because of an over pull of 3 packs. Honestly felt like the difficulty of mythic 0 was more like heroic. Crazy how the experience seems so different.

There are items you can craft, but they use the material you get from the final boss of Mythic dungeons and those are all being devoted to armor etc right now.
Also doesn't help that they seem to be awful with abilities like 'chance to return extra cloth from mission '.

I mentioned it earlier, but they changed tank threat from 10x DPS to 4x DPS, where a regular DPS class does 1x DPS threat. It is definitely noticable, especially at lower gear levels. I do have to drop my ox statue a lot (if we taunt the statue, we aoe taunt every mob that has threat with it) just because of the threat nerf and I am considered an aoe threat beast of a class.
It's kind of janky because for years now people have grown accustomed to just aoe'ing everything down, but then Blizzard randomly decided they wanted threat to matter again. Mind-boggling change.
Bring on the Blood Mage healer spec and the Battle Mage melee DPS spec.

I also noticed some dungeons have mobs that run away at low health, that's going to need some attention. Can't remember when we last had mobs run away, think they took that out around TBC or something.

I believe we will see the same kinds of catchup AP mechanics we did in legion. Either they tweak the amount needed per level or we get billions and billions per stone at some point.
