Top kek. I said it when people asked for it, I've got reason to say it again. Valor points were not some sort of Messiah in their original iteration, they weren't going to be now. At least they increased drop rates, that's a better bandaid fix.
I don't understand the part where the 2 best upgrades of Venari are now "capped to season 1", can somebody explain it to me please ? Does that mean they won't get available in season 2 ? I am lost
" Unbound Reality Fragment and Spatial Realignment Apparatus"
what the flying fuck is that.
These developers, imposed by Activision, have really taken the game to the next level of absurd.
How hard is it to keep the game on its spirit, what first made it ultra successful, instead of trying all this new nonsense systems.
Tiers are exactly the same unless you really want to convince me that raiding is all about "progression" and that is why people do old raids for gear still and not the latest raid with their catch up gear mechanic introduced that tier.
But hey, every guild clears every raid in the order since it's not a season, its progression, and no one just raids for current ilvl gear to compete in all end game levels of the game.../s
This isn't Vanilla anymore. Raids do not progress anymore. They are more seasonal than pvp even is, and you have no argument against that fact.
I thought it was pretty clear but I'll say it again I guess: Stop pretending you're able to speak on behalf of a meaningful portion of the playerbase. You don't. For the record, I don't like the change personally but pretending that Blizzard is doing this specifically to negatively impact gear hoarders and "increase playtime metrics" is some 10,000 IQ QAnon conspiracy theory-level mental gymnastics.
Season 2 will begin when a new raid tier comes out, somewhere around June/July. You won't be able to hoard styiga to add sockets to new items in season 2. This is basically Blizzard telling you to not waste your time farming stygia right now thinking your just going to add sockets to everything in 9.1.
Seasons are such a terrible concept for a MMO. A sorry excuse to invalidate everything prior and make players grind everything again in shorter intervals. Older MMO (and WoW) wasn't as extreme as it is now. Everything is weekly, capped, seasonal. And why? To make you play as long as possible. I have easily 6 hours a day for gaming, but I don't wanna spend a single minute in WoW because of this crap anymore. Nothing feels to last even 2 months anymore. catch up here, resets there. Progression does not feel meaningful at all. Resets are happening way too fast. I miss expansions being the only actual reset like it was in Classic and BC. Sadly I have played that content too much.. :/

Blizzard: New tier, grind all your gear again.
Players: Yay! I love new tiers and grinding my gear again.
Blizzard: New tier, but since we don't have tier anymore we're going to call it a season.
The same fucking players: WHAT THE FUCK BLIZZARD WHAT THE FUCK ARE SEASONS WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?! GIVE US TIER BACK NOW!!!!
