Nice, blizzard really do love the endless grind meta they are going with now huh
Nice, blizzard really do love the endless grind meta they are going with now huh
It's crazy that, out of Diablo 3 and WoW: Shadowlands, D3 is the one with the more reasonable gear grind and better loot system.
Darnit i have been defeated.
but nah most of this is just "Blizzard trying to shit on players and boost MAU"
Maybe you should make a video on how these valor upgrades are different from mops upgrades?
im too busy working on addon vid and a microtransactions video to spend time talking about equality versus equity.
Without fail, the Blizzard shills come out of their holes to defend this garbage decision. Everyone else hates this trash and Blizzard is just trying to keep the poor saps they've convinced to keep playing by forcing them to regrind shitty content. This expansion is a fucking disaster.
That DLC comic hits very close to home, happened to me countless times...
That is IMO the biggest failing of WoW: in outdoors content, players are nothing more than a hindrance, even same-faction ones (I can see the logic for other-faction players, but there faction imbalance comes into play.), if the idea is to usher people into group content, starting off with "Other people are only competition for limited resources and/or mobs" is a pretty poor starting point.
Im glad someone is hitting these ppl with actual facts No sarcasm. Im getting tired of these other posters reaching so hard to villainize blizzard for sneezing then saying blizzard is dum in all caps while having an active sub. Glad there are actual intelligent ppl out there ty Felplague

This post here honestly sounds like you're trying awfully hard to be angry about something~anything involving blizzard.
There are probably "technical" reasons why they could have done away with fractions in shadowlands zones. We aren't at war anymore why do horde and alliance compete?
I want to know why I keep encountering mobs tagged by the faction that I can no longer hit and get credit for all the time. Maybe they are in a group and I am not? Not sure that is what is suppose to happen.
Not sure it matters, blizzard cares, or it would happen but when Ion says, "we also want to avoid the feeling that you should go through months of item history and stuff your bags and your bank in preparation for this." Maybe we should all just unsub then until 9.0.5 and wait on gear we can upgrade for drops instead of "wasting time now".

You don't have to.

They are not required to defeat mythic bosses. No one would want to hear your ideas with this level of maturity by the way. All caps and referring to folks as "dumbasses" in a shouting competition is a fast way to not be respected or listened to in the future fyi.

you didnt read what they asked correctly. They asked "you dont have a single item over 220?" Moreso that you referrred to your 207 items.

Why would anyone need to regrind anything for the current content?
It's a start. But when you can only upgrade new gear, that means many more weeks of farming that one slot you're missing...
Might still take 30 runs of other side until you got the trinket you want.
Surprise. Blizzard gives what people want. People complain. And so goes the circle round and round for 15 years.

Am I getting something wrong or is stygis being deleted too?
Simple example.
Imagine a tank who is decked out in 210+ gear but has no luck when it comes to trinkets. He still carries around m0 level Hakkar scale because his luck sucks that hard. The Valor system is introduced and he gets his hopes up but then blizz drops the "new gear only" rule and poor tank is back to being bummed out.
He already has the trinket and if he'd regrind the same trinket it wouldn't be different from the one he already has.
So why the arbitrary limitation? It's that simple.
That's not a problem. That's good decision making.
Current iteration of VP upgrade rewards impulsive decisions.
Retroactive gear upgrade rewards future planning and foresight.
Why should foresight be punished?
Why should impulsiveness be rewarded?

Yes, because it's a giant conspiracy against its players and if they really cared they'd just add every single piece of gear in the game to a vendor and make upgrading retroactive. There are zero downsides to this because, well, it's what players want and when have players ever been wrong about the game?!?!?
Loot drops in pve have been utterly abysmal this expansion. They say valor points are coming but now they ONLY count towards loot dropped in 9.0.5 and ONLY affect m+ gear. Furthermore, we're going to have grind in the Maw AGAIN, the worst zone they have ever introduced into the game. How anyone can possibly defend these actions is beyond me. Every decision about this expansion has been complete fucking trash.

They're not giving people what they want. They're saying they are but then forcing people to re-grind content to keep people subbed because without it, they're bleeding players.
In short, blizzard lose players by giving what they want... seems like they shouldn't give what players want then. At least if we go by what you say. I think it's absolutely bonkers though.

So basically give back titanforging, regrinding same pieces hoping for the procs.

I have never seen WoW community this upset for blizzard giving BETTER LOOT!
I have no idea why people who are doing fine today have to "re grind" stuff to get these valor items? Why do you *have* to do anything? I wouldn't even get this upset if all my characters were deleted!
