Always easy to pick out the people that have a baseless argument. You just jump straight to the deep end of slippery slopes, rofl.
You’re arguing semantics for the sake of it. Its quite easy to get my point just by reading a few posts in the topic. Obviously I was talking about specific pieces and mixed up a couple words.
That was a ballpark guess based on nothing. I now have a chart showing the actual numbers from DE/Salv and you are right. It was a bit of an overestimation on my part to be possible to get one every week. Every other week is entirely possible though.
Again, here is the chart for anyone who missed it in my edited original post.
every other week for a RANDOM piece like I said 600 to 700 armor on a specific piece will make it worth a 385 with out those specific traits. No one who is fully informed would think 6 to 9 weeks is acceptable.
I never said Azerite can titanforge. That was someone else. I did however reference a blue comment yesterday that literally said it drops from M+ completion. Maybe they have changed that since, or the blue mispoke . But I didn’t make it up.
They said from day 1 of this announced change that random gear would take a few weeks, targeted gear longer.
At least know what you’re talking about before complaining about it.
Bottom line is that the amount of time it takes to buy a specific piece absolutely should be based solely on the weekly cache alone. Residuum from scrapping should be extra that, maybe, cuts it down by maybe a week…because its random. I get that Blizzard wants to drum up the hours played metrics by getting people to play the slot machine…but its more likely that someone will clear a M0 tour and normal/heroic and, maybe, walk away with a couple pieces to scrap. There is no good reason beyond drumming up metrics to impress shareholders to base it this way. I enjoy running challening content (i.e.: high keys and mythic once heroic is on farm)…not old content that I steamroll. This is going to do far more harm than good and encourage much quicker burnout.
This takes you to the comment section of that blues post. It looks like they’ve since edited it, but originally they did say M+ completion. This persons comment still shows the original version.
im 381 and i run +10-12s every week i should recieve an upgrade every few dungeons or at the very least at the end of the week there is no point in me running mythics excpet for raising my score on a third party website at this point
It looks to be more or less what they said, 2 to 3 weeks for a random one or about 9 for a specific one, take into account this is Mythic quality Azerite pieces.
Also they said the cache will drop more when the new season starts so it should still be 2-3 weeks for a 415 random piece or about 9 weeks for a 415 specific piece.
That’s your choice, my point is that we already knew this was going to be the rate at which we would be able to buy the azerite pieces, I agree it feels too slow just don’t understand why all the sudden people are surprised about it.
