Gonna miss titanforging.

[Kaver]

who cares when mythic raid loot last two bosses is 485

You're going to be just fine with a 475 weapon in m+. It's going to correspond to a 445 weapons before 8.3 which was fine.

If you want an even better weapon than that, then you will just need to prove yourself and clear the hardest content in the game.

One person doesn't equal the general consensus of the rest of the community.

Titanforging is largely hated by many people. Titanforging might be liked by a very small portion of players. I say "might", because I can't tell if the OP is being serious or not, or just trying to stir up things for attention.

Well duh. The point wasn't that we're a hivemind (on the contrary I doubt there's a single thing WoW players are unified on), but simply an observation that we always see these sorts of topics when things/features are removed.

As I've said probably a thousand times on this forum, Blizz can't please everyone no matter what they do.

And yeah, its entirely possible that the OP is just trying to sound contrarian and trigger the 'burn TFing with fire!' crowd here, but you never know.

[DemonDays]

And if you think infinite stars wont be nerfed I have a bridge to sell you.

Shit always go lives op and is swiftly nerfed.

Regardless of whether it gets nerfed or not is not the point. Stop dancing around the facts.

Corruption is Titanforging. Now instead of pulling the slot machine for iLevel you're pulling it for traits.

There is ALWAYS a BiS trait that is infinitely better than the rest. Enjoy your casino, you seem to love it.

What I enjoy is having a reason to run more than one m+10 a week.

Its stupid game design to have the best weapons be locked behind the last boss of the raid. Why do you even need them once you've beaten him anyway.

Gear is supposed to help you progress. Not be the big reward that all these mythic raiders really care about so they can hang it over everyone else

Hah, so you are basically complaining about almost every single game made ever. The best weapons/armors being from, or acquired after you've taken down last/extremely tough bosses has been a staple in gaming since it's inception, really.

[Frolk]

With TF gone, next item on the list is to re-instate Master Loot as a choice for mythic raiding.

[Mister Cheese]

I won't. Fuck titanforging.

Yes. But it won't happen because casuals who don't understand how ML works will flood the forums with thousands of threads again demanding its removal.

except unlike in 8.2 I had a chance at getting weapons from actually running content not just waiting for a chest

[iamthedevil]

As a casual, this. Glad to see it go.

Wouldn't it do nothing but help you as a casual? If it didn't happen it didn't matter and if it did it was a bonus.

No it hasnt but nice ass pull.

Do you get ultimate weapons from last bosses in final fantasy series? No.

[Darkimpact]

I don't understand the hate titanforging got. It's so boring going into a m+ or raid knowing it's impossible now to get an upgrade. It's gonna be so lame getting the same item level every run and you gear out your character in a few nights of m+.

Also this means the ONLY way to get a decent weapon is mythic raid. Which means I have to commit to the time schedule of others which is an out dated practise in 2020. I'm not 14 anymore who can stay up all night.

Yea yea this forum will be full of "git good" "join a mythic guild noob" and all that bullshit but I much prefer m+ because you only need 4 more people and can do it whenever which suits me as a full time worker on a weird time zone and your mythic loot still gets the cool xmogs and mounts ffs. Now I have to raid mythic to be competitive in content I wanna do. Lame

Imagine being unable to find a guild among tens of thousands that fits your schedule with tools like the internet at your disposal.

Titanforging is boring. Warforging is fine, it's just a small bonus. Titanforging killed my soul during Legion. Put me off raiding hard, because the best BM hunter set was the Nighthold/EN one, nvm Convergence of Fates, so you were better off trying to get it high TF'd than anything else until some way through Antorus, if memory serves. That said, the fact that some of the legendaries you had also determined part of your playstyle didn't help.

Also the same reasons why I'm glad tier sets are gone, and I hope they stay gone, along with titanforging.

[Soon-TM]

Lol I knew this was coming.

WoW community: OMG <name of thing> sucks get rid of it

Blizz: okay we hear u, its gone in <insert patch>

WoW community: man I miss <name of thing Blizz just removed> so much

Implying that the WoW community should be absolutely homogeneous, akin to a hive mind, to be taken seriously. I never understood that "criticism", if you can ever call it so.

As for the subject at hand: it would have been nice if TF was simply removed (or at least severely curtailed), but it's been replaced with another shiny, fancy brush of RNG. I wonder how WoW survived all the way from Vanilla to WoD, when the only RNG was whether the boss dropped the item you wanted or not (and if you won the roll ofc).

I mean... Are you just not reading the words in front of you?

Don't you remember a time when you played the game for fun and not for a small dopamine hit from the slot machine?

[RobertoCarlos]

Imagine being unable to find a guild among tens of thousands that fits your schedule with tools like the internet at your disposal.

Imagine being in a guild but having a job where your on call so you can't guarantee 100% attendance so you don't want to be a leech and waste a spot so you focus on content like high m+ keys instead. But now that is lame because you only need to run one a week then log out and wait. Imagine

No, but neither do you get ultimate weapons from the first bosses. And you generally get your best weapons in the FF series shortly before the last boss.

I mean I agree with most of your statement but you messed one part up.

Legion is the expansion that introduced insane levels of RNG, Titanforging and multiple insane grinds like AP and Legendaries.

does corruption even drop on m+ loot I thought it was only weekly chest. The content I want to do that I find fun requires me having the BiS gear or I get kicked to the curb.

[DemonDays]

Actually in most Final Fantasy games you get Ultimate Weapons from either very late game grinds or extra activities. Or post game.

Keep digging your hole further though.

Some of the weapons from EP also had procs which were worth more than 10 ilvls. The staff from Azshara was crazy good in m+ and Divers Folly also did insane AOE damage for rogue and dh. Those weapons you couldn’t get from m+ and even though the ilvl was the same then the actual damage output was much higher than “regular” weapons.
