    Well, that's a bit disappointing. Sounds like they're pigeon-holding mythic raiders until PvPing at a gladiator level for gear.

    It's Thursday. I'm thinking we're due for a new build, right? Isn't that how things work?

    Getting gladiator is harder than being a single person in a mythic raid, and killing bosses.

    You'll sooner get the gear from PVE.

    They always had the easy to learn hard to master mantra. The "doom and gloom" part of you isn't even reasonable.

    Just to clarify. It won't be "getting gladiator" as that happens at the end of the season. They said gladiator caliber players and I'd assume we're looking at something like a 2.4-2.5k cutoff?

    Ok, that's kinda cool. Shouting when you charge is pretty nice for Warriors.

    I know that, they won't make you wait a season for the set of gear.

    I believe gladiator is a tad higher than that.

    Yeah I happened to quote you because your post was there, but it was a general comment.

    I think last season, in the US (EU was higher) the cutoff was at 2650ish, so I would say that around 2.5k is probably fair to "brand" as gladiator caliber.

    We are indeed due for a new build.

    And currently thats only 1117 players worldwide.

    I doubt Mythic raiders are going to bother trying to get to that rating.

    I grinder out 2200 the first few weeks every season to get my weapon in wrath and never pvpd again. This will feel forced and create tension. I will despise people in my raid who don't even try to get this. Not to mention, I think the easier path would be going through rbgs. And thats even more toxic

    Well that's your problem. Either you're in a guild that enforces it so everyone should do it, or in a guild that doesn't so you do it because you want to do it and people are well within their right to not bother.

    If the guild enforces it and people aren't capable do they just kicked? Things aren't that simple and guilds don't work that way.

    I'm certainly not doing it because I want to. I'm doing it because the game forces me too in order to progress my character as far as possible for PvE

    If that's what you intend to do, go ahead and do that but don't act like others don't have self control.

    Well yeah (or maybe benched), that's what enforce means surely. If not, then the guild isn't actually enforcing it.

    I didn't do LFR the first week of the valor patch because I wanted to. But I wanted to progress my character as far as possible for PvE, and that was the way. But since the guild wasn't enforcing it, in essence I wanted to do LFR in order to progress my character as far as possible. At the same time though I didn't "despise" the people that didn't do it, since it wasn't enforced for my guild.
