World Why I Think Early Game Boss Altars Should Be Nerfed

So, let me say this. Orange wybel and aerie of the recluse, however hard they may be, are somewhat well known (at least the former). Classes have builds at that point. But what about altars like Bovine Barn and Rotten Passage. How many people know or care about these? So, despite boss altars being meant to be fought in a party, they rarely are. Plus, class builds are not common at this point. PLUS, with Bovine Barn, you haven't even unlocked your 3rd spell (although chances are you will get it before beating it anyway). So, why did I hear Bovine barn is getting a buff? I don't know if this is true, but, if so, WHY? These early altars should be made easier therefore.

 

tbh wybel is very easy nowadays, aerie at 95 is still easier than qira for example

many people. they aren't as "popular" as wybel for example, but they are def not unknown

in my opinion the pre-Tribal Sanctuary altars are more so designed for an actual combat challenge until they start appearing elsewhere, and the early boss altars do it well. there is nothing that should be changed about their difficulty. they may be hard, but that's the point. they are earlygame battles that feel like actual endgame-tier battles, while still being 100% soloable, as all of wynn combat is.

 

I wonder if one day I will make a post that isn't controversial.

 

I do think that boss alters need some changes (for example not having to look at the wiki every time you want to use them to learn the item), but debuffing them isn't really one of them. Besides, drum island necklace is used in class builds as high as 50 or 60, so its not like you

 

as of 1.20 its the highest int boost necklace with the in place dhydro nerf
