    Yeah no we won't the point of a MMOrpg is to be endless in content and doing old content forever and nothing new being added is not that at all.

    as for me, I won't even touch classic and will continue to play BfA, and I'm sure I won't be the only one either.
    I played classic when it was live, I don't feel the need to go back to the start, and ugly models/textures, thx but no thanks. I'll leave it to you nostalgic pink glasses guys

    They'll prob tell him that's what usually happens when you create a new allied race toon.

    Some people have been saying the patch would come out end of may. I always thought that was crazy and way to soon, but with raid testing now, could it be a possibility ? also, 77 days from the last patch (12/13 march) is May 28/29th. And that happens to be on a tuesday/wednesday aswell

    how likely you think this is ?

    Well they seem to be more following a 90 day patch cycle this time. Each patch has been the closest tuesday to 90 days from the previous. (with launch to 8.1 being 4 months but that makes sense for a launch)

    Game launched on 8/14, 8.1 was 12/11, 8.1.5 was march 12. If they continue following that pattern 8.2 will be ~June 11th and 8.2.5 in mid-september.

    I'm seen some speculation on classic in mid july so that would actually work out best for blizzard to launch that between 8.2 and 8.2.5 anyway

    I know it's just me, but the word "benthic" feels wrong in the context of a fantasy game. It's a modern scientific term. I know they're probably limited in words to describe "Unda Da Sea" gear, but it just feels too modern a word. But then it's a game with a selfie camera, set in a medieval world setting, so what do I know?

    Whaaaah, Blizz sucks! They keep recicling old stuff! Why do I even pay for a game with no creativity? Thats why its hollow and shallow! WoW is dead!
    Why are you saying Blizz sucks?

    I've played since the US Beta came out, and all I'm saying is I'm starting to see a pattern of increativity. The last 2-3 expansions have re-used this system of "catching up" because of lack of content, basically. I don't only want a vendor to be able to catch up, what about a new dungeon or two. The Crucible of Storms doesn't count here, because it has only 2 bosses and very limited and obscure types of loot.

    Or you just check wowhead what the, for example, pants will have and if they have the stats you want you buy em, though granted I do hope they say what stats they have so you dont have to check on some 3rd party website what each item has for stats.

    Dude I know right and you can't forget the most egregious timegating, LEVELLING. They need to remove levels in all forms from the game, character levels and gear levels especially. I should be able to login on a new toon and be acceptable by any group to fight any boss. Also I can't believe they just brought back resistance gear with this new Benthic gear. Like do they not understand we the player base want instant dopamine rushes for no pay off? instead of paying to get nothing.

    So why are they selling tokens then and not items ?

    This is a genuine question. Why would they create tokens instead of flat items ?

    Cause for now it looks like yes, that the stats will be determined on the item. Benthic leggings of the whale : crit/mastery. Benthic leggings of the harmonious : versa/haste. Yet when you get use the token you don’t know if you gonna get whale/peerless leggings. Like how it’s been up to now, actually.

    But hey, if at least they have a reason to use tokens instead of items and that there is truly no RNG, it’s definitely an improvement from the system we have now.

    Answering to myself: looks like they use containers to only have one items for every type of armor but they completely got rid of the RNG when “crafting” the item from the token, ie cloth gloves have crit/haste. Nice.

    All benthic gear items are available here : https://www.wowhead.com/news=291566/...resting-equips

    Yay, looks like they use containers to only have one items for every type of armor but they completely got rid of the RNG when “crafting” the item from the token, ie cloth gloves have crit/haste. Nice.
    Was going to suggest this but kept myself from doing so because I wasn’t sure. Figured it had something to do with just determining item type for alts.

    Actually yes there is right now so it's either because it's just been implemented or it's not predetermined.

    I just logged onto the PTR (was able to without a sub for some reason) and bought some Benthic Legs. They did not have predetermined stats on the vendor or when it went in my bag before I opened it, they did not offer me an option to choose stats and it rolled crit/vers only when I identified it.

    For now they actually are RNG still.

    Did you buy another pair and roll it on the same toon to see if they rolled differently?
