Raiding is not the only endgame in a good MMO. It has taken blizzard a very long time to realize this but they are finally figuring it out. More things to do besides raiding is a GOOD thing, not bad.

You obviously skipped some important parts. Aszerite gear will be increased in ilvl depending on the difficulty it dropped and in a logic manner if u have head + shoulders + cloak already locked imagine trying to go for a 4-set... Not to mention that you can inspect that player with an addon called quickarmory and you can check his/her progress there. Aditionally it should decrease the moaning over items that has happened since forever as we will probably have more sources for gear similar to Legion.
Imo it's a good change, i have many 945+ armor sitting around increasing my no1cares-ilvl while i feel obliged to go with 2 or 4-set.

Yes, but not everyone raids. Actually, the number of people who actually raids is low relative to the number of players. Until LFR and the various changes, it was a minority.
So, in the end, it was about the loot. If people are raiding less because loot is now available via different means, it suggest people were not that interested in raiding in the first place.
They are not removing tiers, they are removig tier bonuses which will be replaced by 3slot Azerite traits, who are affected by difficulty on which you obtain those items.
I swear, some people will bitch about everything.
WoW is not made for raiders only. Without us casual scrubs you wouldn't have current WoW.
No they're not. Believe it or not, they are smarter than us. They know what they are doing.
Every change isn't a bad change.
So many people on this forum looking for things to complain about or criticize blizz over.
My guild says good. A lot of times the stats from tiers aren't great. It's retarded to farm titanforged pieces of old tier to keep the bonuses because the new ones suck or you want to combine two sets. Plus what if your two best legendary pieces lock you out of the full set?
Oh they're not going to do that. Lootboxes that they already have in games don't give you any power and are all cosmetic and I think you should remember how amazingly well those helms sold (not really).The day lootboxes are introduced into WoW is the day I leave the game for good. Moreso if they have the gall to keep the monthly subscription AND the box price.
It seems to be a push to simplify the game more.. I can't say I welcome it but it is how it is.
Blizzard has to race to keep up with the raiding community which has been doing pretty well on its own to minimize the number of people who participate in organized raiding.
Casual open world play is the bread-and-butter for World of Warcraft at this point. Not the less-than 25% who never kill a boss in a guild group. I don't make judgments about players based on what they're wearing.
