All normal gear in SoD already irrelevant with 1st new raid

I’m so interested to see how they continue to invalidate every quest item and drop in the entire game with their new leveling raids.

Way to completely destroy classic items and progression in the 1st new raid introduced into the game.

The caster staff from BFD won’t be replaced until 60 and probably not until MC. That is unless the next new raids are even more egregious at invalidating the original content.

Not only has SoD been ruined with a crazy OP rune system, all the original classic gear is practically worthless now effectively forcing you to do the new leveling raids.

This is textbook retail game design mentality. Invalidate all prior content with new additions. This is not in-line with Vanilla WOW values.

I hope you don’t want to rank at 60 because I bet those R14 weapons are going to be worthless at the rate of power creep we are seeing in SoD.

You can probably get stronger PVP weapons at level 40 than R14 weapons.

There are two pieces of dreamweave, two pvp rings, and a bop green quest reward belt in caster prebis next phase. Not everyone has full bfd bis, new alts will continually be made. This isn’t as big an issue as you think.

Well… everyone wanted changes.

Thing about big changes is you have to rewrite the entire game around it

Are people having fun? Sure, doesn’t change the fact of, though.

you clearly dont understand what SoD is. Its not regular classic, you can play regular classic at anytime you like, it already exists, this is about making changes to classic. and what good is a raid without it have better gear than quest items??

Pretty certain rod of the ogre magi or Lord Valth’s staff of command is better than the epic. Both are dungeon loot

He really doesn’t think it’s a big issue.

They are not better. Dire maul isn’t out at 60 either. Dire maul is around BWL or after BWL.

Just big enough to complain on the forums

don’t worry. they will be :expressionless:

This staff is already as good as the warlock class quest staff from sunken temple and barely worse than staff of dominance from MC.

It’s insane.

The only way new lvl 60 items would be better is A: they increase the ilvl and/or B: itemize them better.

Releasing new items that have higher ilvl than current ilvl 60 items would definity make content obsolete so they better pay attention and only focus on itemizing better instead of inflating ilvl.

We’re doomed

Oh look the guy named “sodsuckx” is making another post about how they are unhappy.

No way could they be trolling.

I think OP is likely overstating things, but I can kind of see where he’s coming from. I’d kind of feel bummed if all the cool pre-bis farming was invalidated by leveling raid gear.

I’d hate to see devilsaur gear be worthless, no more warriors farming savage gladiator chain, maybe no reason to go into BRD much at all, etc.

Yep, all of this is gone and pointless.

They took away most of the game activities by inept design.

If you enjoyed pre-bis farming it’s over. Just go to the new leveling raids and have better pre-bis gear than any dungeon.

So just raid log and skip all dungeons.
