"Track the Seraph" (Order of Whispers) Too Hard

MISSION: “Track the Seraph”
RACE: Human (Female Elementalist)
ORDER: Order of Whispers
SUGGESTED LEVEL: 24
ACTUAL LEVEL: 26-30

The personal story mission “Track the Seraph” (an Order of Whispers mission) is flagged as level 24. Initially this mission is difficult only in placement of bad guys on top of the fort’s battlements, making it difficult to dodge or evade. The final wave of bosses in this mission however is a set of three level 26 Veteran Abominations that I had to basically throw myself at and die against repeatedly as a level 24 Elementalist. Ended up getting killed six times total, with almost all of my worn gear damaged and broken. The difficulty on this mission needs to be ratcheted waaaaaay down.

Adjusted it for the 9/24 update. Reduced the abomination count to 2 L24 enemies, which is much more reasonable.

I’ve adjusted the Lionguard so they’re the same level as the open world NPCs, and reduced the power of the abominations a bit. I was able to solo this as a L24 elementalist without dying, though some dodging was required when one of the abominations took a swing at me. I don’t have an ETA on when this will go live, though it will be in a future update.
