  1. If you skipped around the video you can watch at 7:16 for my 35% hp raest burn in timewalking gear and my 38% burn in shadowlands gear. (though its only the ending of the the raest phase not the whole phase, had to keep the video duration down ya know)

  2. Theres been a lot of controversy over timewalking gear in the mage tower, personally I had a lot of fun getting this gear and it only took me about 2 and a half hours to get it all. The main hassle was the gold all the old enchants and things cost because of people jacking up the price. It was still really fun and if you arent sure what to do with your wow time id say try grinding a timewalking set.

  3. Timewalking sets are a bit cringe, just 1 trinket was game changing for my guardian druid challenge. BUT: with the extensions to TW people need to stop resisting and get out there and farm everything they can. This assumes you are playing the fights clean and dying on end phases to rot, enrage etc. Crisp pulls come first, once you have the muscle memory then your TW gets you over the finish line.

  4. Okay age and your first frost mage vids helped a ton. After hrs and hrs of tries, approximately 40k gold spent on consumables, I beat it with SL gear. Oddly, using the slime/ ooze trinket helped in completing it.

  5. TL;DW: Fastest times were 2 mins 29s in Timewalking gear and 3 mins 14s in Shadowlands gear (SL gear was limited to only shadowlands consumables whereas timewalking gear used the better scaling consumables). Lowest % I got Raest to in the first burn was 35% with timewalking gear and 38% with shadowlands gear (shadowlands gear was using rune of power so timewalking gear could probably get him to about 27%). Also I originally cleared this challenge in full shadowlands gear and only got the timewalking gear for this video, you can 100% get the book mount without having to go farm for any timewalking gear, the only one that requires potion of unbridled fury is the tank challenge. And it only took me about 2 and a half hours to get the timewalking gear and about 125k in gold for the gems/enchants/consumables. (costs significantly less to just get consumables which is what you would ideally do in shadowlands gear). I did 2.8k dps in the TW fastest run and 2.2k in the SL fastest run.
