    World quests keep offering me intellect trinkets as Prot

    READ BEFORE ANSWERING:

    - IF I SET MY LOOT SPECIALIZATION TO PROT SPECIFICALLY, I STILL GET OFFERED INTEL TRINKETS
    - IF I SET MY LOOT SPECIALIZATION TO AUTO (PROT), I STILL GET OFFERED INTEL TRINKETS

    There are currently 4 world quests up offering me trinkets, 3 out of which are intellect as main stat. If I do them they stay intellect. I don't play holy, I have the Silver Hand but it hasn't been used since I got it.

    How the fuck do I make this stop, trinket upgrades are hard enough to get without this bullshit.

    It was like this since beginning of expansion. My resto/balance druid had excellent set of agility trinkets from those quests.

    Woldquests offer loot based on class, not loot spec. That is also fine. What isn't fine though is that you can get that crap in emissary chests as well..

    So there's a constant shortage of tanks since the beginning of WoW and their genius idea is to suggest to me to try holy? What the fuck, do they enjoy giving DPS players 20-30 min queues?

    How is that fine? All my other loot is prot based, only trinkets are fucked up like this.

    How can you even type the words "That is also fine" and not choke on your own bullshit?

    World quests give class loot and not spec dependent. You get what you're given and can't "make it stop".

    Also, ditch the caps.

    Which is absolutely fine. What is NOT fine is that you can get the same crap from emissary chests as a reward - an idiocy a person above me reported as well.
    No more time wasted in WoW.. still reading this awesome forum, though

    How can you think that giving you spec specific trinkets will somehow impact queue timers and not even choke on your own bullshit?

    Blizz is telling you to play Holy, take the hint already.
    They always told me I would miss my family... but I never miss from close range.

    Its based on class and not spec so you can't make it stop giving you intellect trinkets.

    Got the exact same problem as a ret paladin. Int, int, int -- endlessly.

    Until you have already gotten a better one from elsewhere, of course. Then you might see the occasional strength trinket.

    BUT CAPS IS HOW THE BUTTONS LOOKS ON MY KEYBOARD.
    But seriously, we also get offered reliqs that fits our offspec weapons - nothing new there. Just don't do those WQ if you don't want the item

    i actually made a ticket about this when i was levelling up my monk as a dps & was forever getting int trinket rewards from WQ.
    to cut a long story short, the answer was you'll have to wait until a dps trinket drops as it doesnt matter what you set your main spec loot as.
    nope, not the answer i wanted to hear either.

    Because they give you loot based on class and it has been their expressed goal to not have you switch through all your specs to check which loot you might maybe need in which spec. That is the reason. It's only trinkets and relics as well, but I guess bitching about fire relics isn't so bad to you.

    Also healers are more rare or at least as rare half of the time. So whining "because tank" is utterly pointless. Be glad that you won't have to do every single quest for all of the expansion..

    TBH I'd gladly wait if the tank was you given how badly you're sperging out right now.

    They even stated at the start they are offered so people can get gear for specs they might not otherwise try out but obviously hyperbole is more your strong suit than logic.

    No thanks daddy-o, because without the caps the first 10 replies I get will be "set your spec to prot....." with so many ellipses you'd think I claimed the world is flat. News flash: having 6000 posts on your account doesn't give you special snowflake authority, my caps and the triggers they unleash within you are your problem.

    Actually all your other loot IS NOT Prot.

    It's paladin.

    Your neck and rings are spec agnostic and pure stat sticks now - sometimes with fun procs.

    All of your armor changes from strength to intellect when you change spec too.

    Yes, I agree, it's sad when you don't get a prot trinket from a WQ, but you know there are dungeons out there that you can get trinkets from too right?

    I doubt you're being very honest, because there's absolutely nothing wrong with my tanking. It's you elitist jerks who vote kick me out of the group after I type "first time here guys, let me know if you want me to pull fast or slow". I grew up with pre-BC WoW so I know how to play my role and do dungeons and raids politely, but 9/10 it's people like you who would personally attack me based on nothing who are what you millennials call a "toxic player".

    News flash: raging isn't being toxic, but bashing a person because their "mean" words which aren't even directed at you trigger your sjw senses is very, very toxic and awkward to deal with.

    What they stated is irrelevant. You have no idea what hyperbole means I am offered THREE FUCKING INTEL TRINKETS OUT OF 4, that is way more than "suggesting me to play another spec", that is hindering my capacity to get gear upgrades, especially when it happens 70-80% of the time when a trinket upgrade is offered

    So what, we're back to pre-BC running a dungeon 30 times for one upgrade? Yay, so what's the point of WQ and personal spec based loot again? Why exactly CAN'T I switch the int to str when i swap specs?

    I honestly wish those quests/emissary non-spec shit would fuck off so I don't accidentally get useless 880 trinkets I won't use but could have used for the spec I play.

    All your other loot is NOT Prot, but Paladin. Given that Trinkets are currently the ONLY item obtainable in Legion that can't be used by every spec for a class, it's the most obvious. WQs don't give a fuck bout what your main spec is, they just assign loot based on your class. (With that being said though, I do think that int trinkets are set to appear a bit too much - As a guardian main, I've only had 2(!) agi trinkets pop up on the WQ list, and countless int trinkets. I think that is because WQs are the same for everybody, and int specs are the majority of specs in the game.

    you should relax, you seem tense OP

    on the other hand, intelect is good for tanks, nobody wants stupid tanks

    for the start WQ were class based, end of discussion.
