Arena Gear Droprate

Ok bracers for example.
ok cap i wanna say 4-5 you get pants or bracers and get to pick which one. Isn’t it kinda the same?

No bracers from weekly cap will be ilvl 385, and when I’m already gearing at 400+ from 2100 it’s a downgrade. And giving me 2 options to pick from out of 6 possible stat combinations further makes the situation worse. If the bracers cap doesn’t allow me to pick haste/mastery like I want, then I’m outta luck. And even if it does happen to the correct stats, I would still have to wait to get an RNG Battleborn Sigil to upgrade the ilvl to be able to use them. This system is garbage all around.

This is true but when has it ever been like this? If im correct the weeklys now will be 400 ilvl regardless of rating. side note ill give you this for 2k + people the vendor works.

this is why the current system is crap
if someone plays thousands of games they should atleast have the right stats in each slot… but no rng is rng so you might not end up with your correct stat weight.

even at top ratings you will get one really nice piece in your box a week, but then what? grind 20 or 30 games against top players for a random cloak or belt ?

I just said i was fine with the ilvl, the drop rate is way too low.

If you’re an average player you’ll have a win rate of 50%, that means you played 28 games to get 1 rng drop if you capped already for the week.

28 games at 7 min each due to queues in between comes out at 196 minutes of play time. This excludes LFGing to get a group.

M+ is about 35min long and guarantee 2-3 pieces of loot (which can be traded). Add another 5 for flying and that’s 40 min excluding LFG (which I ignored for arena). That means you can do about 5 M+ in a single arena session. If you in time the keys that’s 15 pieces of loot for 5 people or 3 per person.

So in the time you get 1 rng pvp piece you can get 3 M+ pieces.

Guess what my team does 15-16 keys and working to higher ones. Each completed 15 is guaranteed loot for the whole team. Aka we get 5 pieces of gear per M+.

I play at 2100-2200 arena? I get the same ilvl loot but I get maybe 1/5th as much given time spent.

Crispy you argue in circles to try to make your point. You waste our time because you can’t actually comprehend anything outside your narrow view point.

For arena statistics check out arenamate website. Legion NA had representations as low as 110k players for a season. S1 BFA was 250k.

Naw, we go back to a system that made more sense. You know mop/wod.

Guaranteed item I need every single week. No RNG stats, no RNG traits (half of which bis come from pve sources) and end of season I have bis gear for every slot and my last few weeks of pushing rating is skill>gear.

People just want vendors that they can buy the gear they need with the secondaries they want for currency that is gained through PVP, like it used to be.
