Anyone have any idea what stats the bosses have?

Most people ive asked say that the raid is aids and refuse to do it now. The gear requirements are pretty much aimed at people who have full level 90 enchants, but most of the people who do have the gear dont need anything that the bosses drop.

    Seems like a hero keaghan and shakkar thrown together into one map.
    They move faster and hit harder.
    Cleared it 2-3x yesterday, but since it doesn't have any titles...loses incentive to run it in future

    Needs more polish. Not as shiny as I thought it'd be.

    The run itself is a lot of fun, no oneshot/statues from Keegs, and I was a bit surprised by the lack of attack cap. That said, there isn't a whole lot of reason to actually do it outside of the fun factor.

    I like the idea and I know we'll see more of it in the future.
    I still want keaghan to have a clash, tho.

    They do drop interesting stuff, though.

    I ended up with an Abom OJ Hand Armor from Shining Keag's.

    Is Karok invul during clash? I seem to remember not when I did it once in Ingkells... would be a serious bummer for this raid

    I wish the arena was a bit bigger, but either than that, it's pretty fun.

    Shakarr is a bit too much of a pushover and then killing Keaghan feels like a slog though.

    I avoid Keaghan like the plague. I won't step in there even if someone tries to carry me...

    EVER.

    It's a pretty fun raid, good practice aswell. However no titles included makes it less likely for me to do the raid.

    The drops are alright... but out of 4 runs I did yesterday I only got enhance elixers.... sooooo, I'll probably do it sparingly, rather farm muir or abom during this +2 core +2 daily departure hot period.

    My headcannon is that this "raid" exists to deflate some egos involving Neamhain.

    See, you don't suck because of gear. You suck because you literally can't track two hostiles.

    Or at least that's the vibe I got as the game handed my arse to me.

    Got lots of EEs yesterday during extra core.

    No other reason to do it.

    They both seem to crit a LOT. Nearly every hit.

    Boring recycled content, no attack cap (also stupid) - terrible all in all

    Seems ok, but it really should have a minimum attack req, I usually see someone carry hard and same 2-3 people dying all the time

    People just gang on shakkar and kill then fast , and then it's just regular Hero Keaghan.
    Both bosses should share the same hp bar.

    Garbage hosting, I literally have 10 fps when hosting this w/o multicore, when I always have 50-60 on other ones, as well w/o multicore. What did the devs f*cking added on this battle again to make it an unbearable sh*t to host ? I know they're used to add thousand of layers for nothing but this battle just takes the icy on the cake, I have never seen something that terrible to host literally.

    Other than that, don't mind the rest : same RNG, same bosses. No att cap battles has to stop tho.

    Ran it 3 times yesterday, got bored after. No titles, no worthwhile drops, little to no entertainment value. It is basically hero kaeghan/shakarr, with much lower attack thrown into one map; with the OHKOs removed. (They do double digit damage against 20k def.)

    This new "raid" feels like filler content more than anything else.
