Guide: Why You Should NOT Pick Soridormi in 11.1.5 Revisited Horrific Vision
Revisited Horrific Visions is a limited-time event introduced in Patch 11.1.5 of The War Within, building on the Horrific Visions activity from the Battle for Azeroth expansion. While Soridormi is available as an NPC to assist you, there are several reasons why you might want to reconsider her inclusion in your runs.
Understanding Soridormi's Role
Soridormi as an NPC: After completing your first Revisited Horrific Vision, Soridormi becomes available as a helper NPC. You can interact with her hourglass during the preparation phase to choose her role as a Healer, DPS, or Tank.
Extra Party Member: Soridormi functions as an additional party member, which means that the difficulty of mobs scales as if there’s an extra player in the group.
Sanity Effects: One key advantage is that Soridormi does not take damage from Sanity effects and can revive players with a Sanity Restoration Orb if they die.
The Downsides of Picking Soridormi
While Soridormi offers some benefits, choosing her can significantly increase the difficulty of your Horrific Vision runs:
Health Increases:
Tank Role: Selecting Soridormi as a tank increases the health of mobs, mini-bosses (lieutenants), and bosses by 46%.
Healer Role: Choosing her as a healer boosts the health of foes by 37%.
DPS Role: If you pick her as a damage dealer, mob health increases by a staggering 50%.
General Difficulty: Overall, the presence of Soridormi makes it feel harder to complete a Vision, regardless of the role you choose for her. The increased health of enemies can lead to prolonged battles and higher risks of failure.
Comparison: With vs. Without Soridormi
Soridormi Selection Effects
| Selection | Health Increase | Additional Effects |
|---|---|---|
| Without Soridormi | No increase | |
| Soridormi as Tank | 46% more Health | |
| Soridormi as Heal | 37% more Health | |
| Soridormi as Damage | 50% more Health |
While Soridormi can provide valuable assistance in certain scenarios, her inclusion in your Horrific Vision runs generally results in a significantly increased difficulty. The health boosts to mobs and bosses can outweigh any benefits she may offer. Therefore, consider going without her to maintain a more manageable challenge level during your runs. Happy adventuring!
