Heart of Azeroth necklace not account wide?

[Orctang-area-52 (Orctang)]

Grats on making it to 110 and starting BFA here’s an ilvl 500 necklace to replace your 160 questing necklace

You say this like it is not going to happen. By the end of the expansion the catch up mechanism will be so great it will jump very high immediately.

[Akston-bloodhoof (Akston)]

No. I’m surprised about someone who spent that much time playing over the holidays has nothign to show for it.

How do you know how much time he spent in game working on it over the holidays? Did I miss something?

If you don’t like repetitive mechanics, MMORPGs may not be for you. Since they are the corner stone of every MMORPG I have ever seen created.

[Quenya-shadow-council (Quenya)]

What do you care? You’re 70.

[Sieten-ragnaros (Sieten)]

For anything under that the levels are still within reasonable amounts to gain another level, plus 37-38 is all that you need to get ring 3 on even Mythic Dazar’alor gear.

We know it doesn’t feel good to put in more work to unlock the exact same traits you just had, and we said in the last Q&A that we’re working on that.

Well yeah so it’s just better to unsub and wait for a couple of weeks, perhaps even 8.2.5 to restart playing.

[Sevaryn-nerzhul (Sevaryn)]

There are a lot of things to be yelling about, but this isn’t really one of them. The decay already in place means an alt is likely to rival or surpass your main’s Az level from the solo questline, occasional AP emissary, and flubbed bonus roll. My alt’s Az 34 and hasn’t really done much of any WQ or dungeons that gave AP as a reward. That’s already enough to claim everything but the +5 at the end of a 385 piece, and to get all primary traits in Dazar gear.

I was able to get my DK to 120 and HoA lvl 17 over the Christmas break with no actual grinding.

TBH I’m more surprised that 17 was as high as he got even as a fresh 120.

[Ythisens]

Dear god, the entire Christmas Break and you have nothing to show for it? The largest chunk of free time available to me, and wouldn’t be surprised to learn it’s the same for many, and you got nothing to show for it other than a not even quarter leveled arbitrary, boring, and frustrating cornerstone of character progression?

Got to HoA 38 on the main, established my role as a flex healer in my new guild, worked on M Ghuun (we’re almost entering phase 3), did almost the entire +10 FoS(just need Motherlode), Finished up some reps so I’m now 3 away from 100 Exalted reps, made like 300k gold…

I could keep going… but I was only talking about an alt I didn’t put any effort into originally.

[Healingdoom-sargeras]

honestly…i spent 1 week on my dh…leveled him from 113 to 120, HoA up to 29. doing all the world quests i can in the alloted time and have a job on top of that so i can enjoy my game and when i feel ive reached my limit on gearing…i got 4 other toons im going to do the same damn thing too…so please…play minecraft or something if you cant handle the grind

[Demo-archimonde (Demo)]

That’s the way to handle all the criticism in this thread, pick the one guy that’s a d-bag and belittle him instead of responding to the people bringing up real issues, good job!

[Dvis-kiljaeden (Dvis)]

Don’t need developer approval to belittle players, only to answer game-play issues.

[Akston-bloodhoof (Akston)]

responding to the people bringing up real issues, good job!

What real issues are being brought up that you feel he could respond to?

[Qpack-thrall (Qpack)]

The issues that were already addressed in the Q&A but people just like to keep their heads in the sand and keep complaining.

[Akston-bloodhoof (Akston)]

Don’t need developer approval to belittle players, only to answer game-play issues.

Who was belittled?

[Dvis-kiljaeden (Dvis)]

No idea, I wasn’t the one making the claim. Also, my post was a joke. Thought that was evident.

[Akston-bloodhoof (Akston)]

No idea, I wasn’t the one making the claim. Also, my post was a joke. Thought that was evident.

Sorry, didn’t realize it as a joke. I’ve just seen people make way too many off the wall statements, that should have been a joke…and take them seriously.

My bad.

[Stabalicious-draenor (Stabalicious)]

The reduction has only paused for high end. I remember having to farm 17k azerite for like heart level 20. Now for alts it’s like 1k, even during the pause.

The pause only really effects those at greater than heart level 33 or so (the current highest requirement for the last ring of 385 gear)

It works something like this (numbers are not accurate)

Heart level: (H1 means heart level 1)
H1| H2| H3| H4| H5 | H6| H7| H8| H9|H10

Requirement
1k | 1k | 1k | 2k | 3k | 4k | 5k
1k | 1k | 1k | 1k | 2k | 3k | 4k | 5k
1k | 1k | 1k | 1k | 1k | 2k | 3k | 4k | 5k
1k | 1k | 1k | 1k | 1k | 1k | 2k | 3k | 4k | 5k

As you can see the “2-5K” window keeps moving up. The numbers go beyond 5k, but “pausing” the mechanism does not impact what has already been reduced at lower levels.

[Selith-thorium-brotherhood (Selith)]

Afraid not I just hate the Heart of Azeroth its a useless trinket… I wish they just keeped ability to get old necks was much better system… Current Wow is just grind grind grind…

I hate all the RNG I still need a head piece and rings and trinkets and sword to complete set but RNG wont give it to me…

I am done with this game as soon as sub ends in April.

But I am getting Warcraft 3 the new remastered one which will be a better game then Wow.

[Bojanglz-whisperwind (Bojanglz)]

This has to be a joke. Each of our characters has to level up this necklace? WTF

I take it you didn’t play Legion or any expansion if you thought this should be shared. Artifact weapons weren’t shared account wide and you had to grind up each toon.

Why do people keep trying to blame BfA for things that happened in other expansions? Good lord it is getting old.

[Selith-thorium-brotherhood (Selith)]

No people are sick of the RNG sick of the massive grinding this expansion has caused it was not as bad in legion and the grind was worth the effort the artifcat weapons unlocked cool abilites and made it worth your time to level it up.

Heart of Azeroth does no such thing.

[Akston-bloodhoof (Akston)]

it was not as bad in legion

The grind was MUCH worse in Legion.

You had to grind everything must more. For off specs and alts.

[Selith-thorium-brotherhood (Selith)]

But it was worth it more cooler stuff.
