Shadowlands Keystone Master: Season Two

I just got it today, and I'm quite surprised, as it was actually way easier than I though it was gonna be. I actually struggled more with the 'old way', than with the rating scores, since not timing a key for a few seconds or a minute, actually gives you pretty much the same score as timing it, while the old way literally gave you nothing even if you failed by a few seconds.

No way in earth you need all 8 15s timed on fortified and tyrannical to get the rating. Here are my dungeons and how I completed them:

- Plaguefall (Timed once on +16 Tyr, and once on +13 Forti)
- De Other Side (Timed once on +16 Tyr, and once on +13 Forti)
- SOA (Failed a +16 on Tyr, Failed a +15 on SOA - both untimed)
- NW (2 chested a +15 Forti, failed a +15 tyrannical)
- Mists (Timed both +15s, forti and tyrannical)
- Halls (Timed a +15 tyrannical, failed a +16 fortified)
- SD (Timed a +15 forti, failed a +15 tyrannical)
- TOP (Timed a +15 tyrannical, failed a +13 fortified)

Still managed to get exactly 2004 score, which awarded me this FOS and this mount.

Not a fan of the fact both tyrannical and fortified weeks are required now. I'd be okay if it was a diff model mount honestly, but a recolor of S1 mount for twice the work? pretty silly. There is also the fact tyrannical and fortified are not balanced in any relative sense. Sure, a 15 is not exactly super-hard to get, but tyrannical weeks just suck. Some dungeons scale pretty badly on tyrannical and this is visible as early as 15s. For example, bolstering weeks on DoS along tyrannical makes for one hell of a miserable experience and much harder to time than the usual, or any time tyrannical is active in SD. If you are going to make us do twice the amount of work, at least give us a recolored gladiator drake or some unused model instead of recoloring S1 mount, since it seems hardly worthy the effort honestly.

While it takes more dungeons to complete than past KSM's, it's actually easier. For my 2024 rating I actually never done 15+ Mists (2x14+), didn't do any Theater of Pain in time, and had DoS 13+ fortified.... So if you have troubles with 1 or 2 dungeons you can still get your mount!
