TheWoWDBThis is basically Flappy Bird, Blizzard 2020 Style!
What does Blizzard 2020 style mean? Latency, unresponsiveness, and poor game design.
Instead of using a consistent hitbox, it uses your character's model, which like most modern Blizzard systems, sounds like it could be great on paper but is horrible to play. The action seems to register some half a second after you press, so you have to learn to predict it.
You basically have to try over, and over again until your brain adapts to Blizzard's terrible server problems and the invisible hitbox which has no correlation to your character.
I take back everything I said about those turtles, Blizzard can always make your daily questing experience much worse.
A black stain on an otherwise great expansion. I have a feeling they sacked all engineers (while making record sales) that knew anything about responsiveness and performance.
No wonder their talent is leaving.

This quest is an absolute embarrassment to the game.
This made it through Q&A. Remember that, folks.
Text/Voice when complete "Kleia says: Not bad! For someone who does not have wings, of course."
Playing as an Demon Hunter am I a joke to you.
