People should realize faux is trolling you all for the most part.
That said, with 11.1 there will be a new raid with new gear and a new tier of loot ilvls and new crests to grind for season 2, correct? But this makes it seem like delves are going to still be grinding for Season 1 gilded crests and season 1 gear?
So M+ and Raiders are moving on to an entirely new plateau of gear while delve players will keep grinding out the current gear? I think the incentive to run group content in 11.1 will be fine if delves get a pittance of gilded crests.
Okay so how does that work then? They keep using the same crests from season 1 to upgrade season 2 gear? Iām confused what the problem is here with giving delves S1 gilded crests once S2 starts.
Itāll all be S2 stuff. Your current crests will be removed, as will your current delve keys, and the ilvl rewards for everything will go up by 39. Awarding new types of crests and new keys.
The first part of the name denotes the rarity, the second is the patch. We had different rarity names in DF (Whelp, Drake, Wyrm, Aspect) but they were still consistent patch to patch.
Okay, that seems a little off to me then too. lol Not sure how I feel about that. I suppose I assumed current delve gear was good enough. It depends on how they move into 11.5 that solo players will need a higher ilvl just to do solo content? Meh, that is kind of lame actually.
I was rather looking forward to capping out some of my characters at the 619 lvl and moving on to some other alts. Not really all that excited about having to grind them to a new cap.
I didnāt play DF so the crests are a new thing to me. The part that I was missing was that delves were going to advance to the new ilvl gear as well.
Well yeah that is the point, 619 wonāt be the cap anymore. It will be 6XX, whatever the new delve gear cap will be. Thinking about it now, I suppose it makes sense if they want delves to be its own progression path.
Nobody is forced into anything in their free time. IDK if you are a gold seller or just a rando player like myself trying to improve the game. We have differing opinions dude, but you just have to admit you are waaaaay off the reservation a bit too often. Blizz is trying to get players to do +11ās, ya know, do stuff they spent a lot of time coding and whatnot. Why should blizz bother coding and tuning +11ās if nobody is doing them, why should they exist? Folk in your position are dodging the hard questions. If people feel that delves shouldnāt exist, fair enough, but you have to be honest in your arguments or nobody is going to take you seriously.
Thatās fine. If they want to give m+ and raiders some new shiny to chase and they want that then great. Have fun.
I hadnāt really thought about it before but now that I have delves just being a way to put solo players on a gear treadmill makes sense from Blizzās perspective. Not something I was really looking for and Iāll probably have to drop the idea of playing anymore alts which is kind of a bummer.
It is a whole new level of time commitment. The rewards are better but it also require a lot more commitment of time from solo and/or casual players. I already donāt do 8 delves a week, and just do 4. Adding more alts to that rotation just isnāt feasible.
You have to play for gear to some extent. Even if Iām just doing solo content when 11.5 rolls around it will be expecting you to have acquired a certain level of gear. Which will be the 11.1 delve gear as a baseline. Rolling into 11.5 at 580 will probably be a little painful.
