    That really is the problem. People want all the rewards possible... and only do the exact small number of things in the game they want to do. I only want to raid, I should be able to get every non-raid item as easy as possible. I only want to do heroic dungeons.. I should get reps, VP and gear from doing only heroic dungeons.

    I was doing raids. Sub ends today. Could not be more relieved.
    and now there is no valor gear because what used to be valor gear doesnt exist.

    you start out with only klaxxi and golden lotus none of the other reps available offer any kinds of non vanity rewards by the time you even start grinding out shado pan dailies the vast majority of raiders will have raiding gear therefore the gear on the reputations are not upgrades.

    No, you do not need to log in every day. You can log in for 15 minutes, do 5 dailies, gain rep, gain valor and get closer to another piece of epic gear. Oh, you mean those ´casual´ players who are hardcore raiders? yeah.. they are screwed.

    They are and it's not good enough in my estimation. Progress isn't simple down boss because you have X gear. Progress is about reward.

    Did I say questing through a zone was a grind? I simple said not everybody quested in dread wastes or cleared out the zone or did enough quests to hit honored. You assume honored status with Klaxxxi when it's not always the case.

    Make up your mind. Is the problem that you have to do actual content to get "rewards" or that you can no longer get them from accrued points? You keep arguing both sides. What is it you want from the game?

    which 5 dailies take 15 minutes? Especially for a casual player whos gear is probably less than optimal and for mobs that take massive fights to down. No dailies take 15 minutes. Especially alone.

    and better gear isnt a reward? do you even know how the upgrading works? if you take a piece of heroic raiding gear and upgrade it all the way its as good as normal gear from the next tier..

    your essentially being given the reward of early tier gear and thats not rewarding enough? please shut up

    this is complete bs most daily hubs are done within 30 minutes solo in questing gear

    I don't see any contradiction but apparently you can search for one and find it these days. The fact that I can no longer get reward (i.e GEAR) from points without doing dailies is a problem. The upgrade system isn't going to be "reward" because it's designed not to be that way. They want to bring back the enjoyment of getting loot from a boss but in reality the frustration of being subject to rng.

    its because there isnt that much content with this expansion - in fact its all smoke and mirrors - the daily quests and gated raids are just to slow people down, with the reduced valor from dungeons and daily grinds the whole first tier would have been beat in one week

In my guild not sure about everyone elses it makes for a rather dull environment as everyone comes on at different times its hard to wait and group up for these dailies as everyone is just trying to get these done. This can take about 2 hours maybe more to complete. In the past you did a few dailies which were quick then you could run a few dungeons with guildmates and thats good because if you dont raid this was the only way to get to know one another and earn respect or build relationships. Now its just a pure grind and yes i have read its your choice to do this and all but I call BS because you have tied rep to gear so yea it sucks. Again....what was the intention and how can anyone consider this to be good for the game.
    Buy a certain bot, and let him do the dailies for you
    Problem solved

    30 =/= 15. Again it's not casual friendly in the SLIGHTEST. Especially compared to the cataclysm system where I didn't need to touch a single fucking daily or rep at all and could still spend my valor points to get gear.

    The upgrade system will not be as rewarding by design. If it was to rewarding then they could make the case that valor gear has to take a back seat.

    uh huh getting gear equivalent to normal raiding gear of the next tier isnt a reward yet an amber scorpion is ok

    I guess I dont see the difference between spending points to get an upgrade and spending points to get an upgrade. But you seem to think that one is a reward but the other isn't.

    he said 5 dailies i said an entire hub also the entirre purpose is to be rewarding THAT IS ITS PURPOSE HOW COULD IT NOT BE THAT BY DESIGN?

    Why cant you ppl stop complaining about the daylies . NOONE force you to do them , NOONE force you to raid. Just you self, to get a spot in the raid. If you dont have the time left , stop raid and do the LFR and have fun on wow instead. Dont you think your guildmembers have the same problem as you ? but maybe they dont complaining here as you are . If you love to raid . try and love the daylies to, they give you a spot in the raid, sooner or later.

    It's actually not equivalent but put that aside for a minute. What are you arguing now? The dailies aren't required or that they are? Because if it's equivelant to normal raiding gear then oh boy guess what... Now of course it's not but what it is is a progression path that people can do outside of the raid to get gear. So they do it and feel very much forced to do it because well without that gear they'd just have RNG to be subject to.

    Well yea it is. It's not me whos saying this. Blizzard wants valor to take a back seat this expansion so that boss loot is more rewarding. Okay well that just means the point upgrade system CANNOT be as rewarding by design. Otherwise that would undermine their goal of making boss loot more rewarding.

    Quit being lazy... back in my day reputation for a faction was something that was truly Exalted or Revered.. now it's just poppycock and hogwash.

    Well I seem to recall a certain ghost crawler saying that if "optional content is to rewarding it ceases to become optional" but let's table that for a minute. The simple fact is that progression for casuals was far friendlier in cata. I didn't have to do a single daily or earn a single rep faction at all because I could spend valor gear. Those rep factions were also much easier to obtain because it was couched primarily in something I would be doing anyway. As the developers themselves point out. This expansion is far less casual friendly.

    So what? An upgrade is an upgrade. Or are you changing your complaint to not being able to get the best gear in the game without being subject to boss drops? It is still unclear what you want from the game. You dont seem to want to play it, but you want to collect gear?
