Went from 150 AP per run (after first daily) to 50 AP.

They want you to grind Island expeditions for AP.
Most people find them horribly boring and didn't do them outside of the weekly. This was their fix to that.
Yea it seemed a bit over the top to nerf these that bad. I was planning on tanking some for the bags + some additional AP. but now the AP is so meager I won't even bother.
Hope blizzard is happy. one less tank making the queues shorter.
Island expeditions arn't even that great, you only get the big azerite shard once every 2 islands, the other time you get a small shard. So its basically ~200 azerite on average for the mythic one and 170 for the heroic one. Who would farm this when you need 20.000 is beyond me.
The first run was also reduced to be just 150 now
It's okay, i'm 100% positive once the game gets out of beta things will be different.
Blizzard just seems to have no idea how to balance the AP grind or gate.
People werent running Expeditions. Thats one of the flagship features for this expansion and it was being largely ignored by the players. Blizzard went into panic enduced damage control mode.
I do my weekly island expeditions and that's it. Ofc i will do wq until i don't need repuatation anymore but i will never do a random heroic again. Even if the satchel is up. Just not worth it. Gear has to forge for me, people doing 3k dps and dungeons are pretty long these expansion in general. And all for 150 AP? No thank you.
Edit: I would say 600-900 AP is a good reward for the daily heroic. Just give us some progression.
