Should "Balance of Power" account bound?

[Ragetacular]

Honestly if they made the EN drop 100% instead of -7% it wouldnt be bad

IMO Hidden Skin unlocks should be account bound for the character that has unlocked them as well.

Yes it should be.

Doing the same pointless grind on many characters is not fun.

Legion, the expansion of grinding.

They could also solve the issue with weapon skins by making it so you don't have to unlock the first item in a row to get the skins. Like I have glory of the legion hero and I'm working on the +15 mythic on my second character. There's no way I'm going to do balance of power on him, especially with night hold out.

I think it should be either account bound, or they should modify it once 7.2 comes out. Perhaps allowing the EN part to be completed in LFR and just requiring the NH one to be done on normal or higher? Maybe make it a guaranteed drop off of each boss? Even making it a guaranteed drop would require more than 4 weeks of EN alone. I'm not sure exactly what needs to be done, but my main still hasn't finished the EN part and going through a full heroic clear and only getting 2 drops when I need 30 is annoying.

If all they do is raise the droprate, then this will be a worthy time to say "wow, it's literally nothing."

Maybe they don't expect you to?

I mean, as an altoholic I totally understand that you would want the "nice" appearances on all toons. But maybe just maybe, it is a design choice of "If you have this unlocked, it means you cared and not everyone is supposed to have it" - You know, also give the people dedicated to one or two mains something....and give the people who love alts something different

Visual DPS is one of the most important aspects of the game, you simply can't perform optimally if you look suboptimal.

[Avikur]

Really should be account bound, the drop rate in EN is waaaay too low!

[Hctaz]

Yes the fact that Blizzard didn't make the EN part doable in LFR when NH released is retarded.

Of course expecting Blizzard to do something so naturally convenient also makes me retarded.

They should somehow change it so that you unlock LFR mode for the quest once you finish with one character. Dunno if they have the tech to do that but they should look into it.

Well they said "we're looking into increasing the drop rate of Corrupted Essences in the future"

That could very well mean never. Account bound is the logical step, 100% drop is really a small gesture IMO.

[Traveler Voltin]

If it was then maybe i would run mythic dungeons.

[Deleted]

Yes. Yes, it should.

[KickThatGuy]

Yes, Balance of Power should be account wide, I don't feel like doing that quest chain on all my characters.

[Selah]

Yes, it's too steep a time investment for Blizzard to reasonably ask for the players to do a second or third time.

[Queen of Hamsters]

If it was, I'd actually bother with it.

Necromancy is scoffed at.

If you are interested in putting in the effort, it is doable in three weeks doing normal PuGs. I don't see why it needs to be account bound.

That sounds like a minimum to me.

Death knight
Druid
Hunter
Mage
Monk
Paladin
Priest
Rogue
Shaman
Warlock
Warrior

So best case scenario if you wanted to unlock the skin for each of your classes assuming they are currently all level 100 will take you nearly a year

Edit
Forgot "Demon Hunter"

They couldn't even increase the drop rate of WoD Legendary Quest line leading up to its expiry so if they do it for this less than a year into the expansion I am going to be pissed.

PS
IMO Skins should be an account class wide unlock which is the reason I am not bothering with them much at all.

Is OK, others can see why it needs to be account-bound.

For example, someone wanting to pursue appearances on each row for 12 classes.

Giving alts everything simply because "I already did it" defeats character progression. Some things shouldn't be alt friendly.
