What's the ilvl of NH Normal? 875 right? 850 for LFR I think too. Make it 850 and it's basically an LFR piece per day. Make the 845+ items 865+ and it keeps them relevant enough to Normal/Heroic raiders in the same way they are now with a decent warforge. I don't raid at all on my alts beyond the odd Mythic+ or Heroic pug and almost all their gear comes from WQs. I imagine casuals are about the same gear on their mains and this is a good source of loot for them.
Paladin Bash has spoken.
I'm going to do the unpopular thing and vote "no". World Quests are perfect as they are now. WQ should be a good way to get gear enough to enter normal raids at least, and they do. Emerald Nightmare is a definite step in the progression of this tier and I feel makign World Quests drop gear that is the same item level or even better than Emerald Nightmare undermines it's position to be the first step towards getting into later raids, including Nighthold.
I'm fine with WQ getting higher cap again when they do a game wide upgrade of the dungeons and other content, but for now the cap on WQ is enough. It's barely worse than normal EN as it is, my Lock alt/second main has not raided at all this expansion and it's 863 (with one legendary), just on WQ.
FOMO: "Fear Of Missing Out", also commonly known as people with a mental issue of managing time and activities, many expecting others to fit into their schedule so they don't miss out on things to come. If FOMO becomes a problem for you, do seek help, it can be a very unhealthy lifestyle..
My alt says yes. All of my Alts. Convenient to ding 110 then gear up through WQ only.
But not sure that's the best thing for people's mains. I wouldn't of liked it on my main.
This expansion isn't raid or die. So I think as the ilvl moves up in raids, mythic+, and pvp, then so too should it move up in the world quests. Plus Blizz said the ilvl rewards in heroics would be getting a bump up as well as a difficulty adjustment to compensate.
Tbh WQ and LFR should have equal rewards, as both brings No challenge. WQ is a guaranteed piece of gear and you can get it alone without having to queue for anything.
LFR is a % chance to get a piece of gear with lower ilvl than WQ - except from ToV.
Isnt the base cap 845? Im constantly getting WQs with rewards 845+.
All rewards from every form of activity should scale to your characters ilvl.
I have a feeling they'll be bumped up slightly, as the pvp quests will soon give out 855 base gear. Would make no sense if they gave guaranteed better gear than the PvE ones (As gear is mostly a PvE thing this expansion)
No. Just nerf EN so heroic EN is puggable.
Aye mate
Because players who start mid-expansion should never get the chance to raid NH/ToS. Or is your guild going to boost them through EN and ToV?
Without catchups, players, and whole guilds get stuck in previous tiers, like it happened in TBC, where small guilds had a very hard time getting past Karazhan because players left for guilds with more progress the minute they had enough gear.
If the core of raiders abandon a raid/tier, the game has to offer everyone else the possibility of skipping it.
You have enough WQ to join mid exp and get able to LFR EN TOV
No reason to give you free epics only because you were lazy
Yes it should its gear catch up. Normal nighthold gear will be 875 do who cares about wq. And afer that they should remove mythic raiding as it doesnt bring anything but toxic people to game
Definitely, WQ gear is great for catching up and LFR can be such a pain if you don't run it on Tuesday
