    8 is the magic number apparently!

    Anymore else noticed Blizzard seem to have a thing for the number 8 this expansion?

    Weapon Skin - Kill 8 World Bosses [8 weeks minimum]
    Weapon Skin - Find 8 legendary archaeology items [8 weeks minimum]
    Class Gear - Defeat 8 different dungeon end bosses
    Illidan Quest - Collect 80 soul fragments [8 weeks minimum]

    Don't get me wrong I understand the need to have timegates during the beginning but I do feel Blizzard need to consider removing or lowering these timegates post 7.2. Not only are people less likely to do these on alts knowing it takes 2 months but also it's going to be annoying for new players coming into WoW mid expansion or even post expansion

    Probably because it's the 8th expac?

    1. Vanilla
    2. Burning Crusade
    3. Wrath of the Lich King
    4. Emerald Dream
    5. Cataclysm
    6. Mists of Panderia
    7. Warlords of Draenor
    8. Legion

    atleast for the acheology artifact skin i can tell from experience that is account wide :P
    the rest i don't know about :P

    also they might lower is in 7.2 or 7.3 but that's quite some time away still.

    Are you sure the archaeology skin is account wide? Personally I think the skins should be account wide but that's wishful thinking

    It's clearly yet another thread moaning about having to put effort into an alt, you just tried to disguise it with something to do with the number 8.

    No, it is a design mechanic with a purpose that loses that purpose near the end...

    It's not 8, they just really like number 88, but they want to disguise it somehow. Blizzard = Nazi confirmed.

    ...just start a blog when you want to whine about pointless things, it will be easier to avoid.

    That's pretty much WoW in a nut shell, people are more interested in quick play games than the long haul nowdays.

    News at 10 gamers have lives

    Let's not exaggerate we're talking about COSMETIC features. The long haul is the gearing up. Blizzard could remove the week limit after 7.2. Let people choose the archaeology quest from a list then allow them to do another the following. Keep all World Bosses up 24/7. There's no effort in waiting 1 week to continue

    Yeah putting time and effort into things in WoW is terrible, why can't we just trade Bloods for arena rating and mythic raid loot? Fuck sake Blizzard!

    Congratulations on ignoring what I said

    I said the long haul is gearing up meaning gear SHOULD take time and effort. Cosmetic stuff like weapon skins shouldn't or at the very least be account wide

    My answer and question.
    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..

    timegates are designed exactly to prevent you from putting in time and effort, you cant use that to defend them....

    I'd just like the class hall armor set to be account bound so I don't have to do Suramar on every single alt throughout the expac
