/Sigh dude… You need to learn the definition of objective. Subjectively I thought it was awesome. Classes had a lot of cool powerful tools.

Again /sigh dude… Some people strive to kit their toon out. Just because you’re okay with being sub optimally geared doesn’t mean the rest of us are.

I literally got one item, that was a bare ilvl upgrade. Right corruption though. My dps doubled. Not a legendary, not even a good item, just right RNG corruption. I didn’t get twice as good all of a sudden. Stupid design.

Wtb any previous expansion where you log in and PvP. Doing endless dailies gave no advantage.

maybe you need to learn it??
adverb

adverb: objectively

  1. in a way that is not influenced by personal feelings or opinions.

Which what I said isn’t, because if it was I would’ve said MoP classes were super fun :thinking:
If you played MoP, you’d know regardless of the fun classes were broken & had huge outcry hence the changes that came in WoD. If classes were sooooo amazing they wouldn’t of doubled down to fix it (and ruin it even more), it was a huge problem in MoP.

Looking at your toon, it’s obvious you didn’t PVP much at all in MoP soooo obviously you’re unaware of the fundamental issues.

Next time educate yourself on the word :joy:

My toon is hardly sub optimally geared, I’m just not a bad player who relies on all these things to be good. You can always strive to kit out your toon, but making bs excuses to why you cant do things is just bad player excuses, simple as that.

That’s what I do now.

It’s really no issue to log in and PVP, you don’t even need corruption.

Yea, and I’m right around the rating I’d be at if I had full gear like in wod or something. 1600 now is like 1800 then tbh.

You miss the point Bob was making.
You can strive to gear your toon, but the point is that your toon doesn’t need to be decked out and you will do perfectly fine without BiS.
This gear grind that you people whine about is something that you put on yourselves. It isn’t necessary, it isn’t required. If you want to “strive to kit your toon out”, then don’t complain when you have to do more than just complete 4 WQs for it. A grind to be optimally geared has always existed. Literally since day one of Vanilla.

All I need are the vendors to come back so that I can buy the appearances. Last season I missed the cloth chest piece even though I pvped throughout the whole patch and now it’s disappeared from my appearances. It just isn’t fair ! ! !

Earlier got killed by a random, out-of-the-blue Twilight Devastation proc from a VDH while doing a bg on an alt. Checked my combat log and the TD hit me for 129k per tick right before I died.

Bring back titanforging imo

lfr players demanding to be kitted out but don’t want to put in the work lmao. :joy:

Awesome, you looked it up… Now if only you could comprehend it.

This is a opinion. What makes good class design is opinion. Fun and balance means good design to me and mop hit both of those. Like wtf is your opinion on good class design? Whatever it is it’s still just your opinion.

Pvpd plenty in mop. Plenty of issues with mop. Way more issues with bfa.

I’m not making excuses for being bad. I was bad before and I’m bad now. Only difference is because I grinded I do double the damage now. Now I wish I could say that’s objectively bad… But ya know it’s still pretty subjective :roll_eyes:

Jugga I ready know your stance on being okay sub optimally geared :joy:

No man you guys are missing the point. I didn’t suddenly get better yet one single corruption doubled my damage. If I care at all about helping my team as best I can and trying to win I should make an effort to double it yet again. That’s the point. I didn’t get better or worse. The insane grind I’ve been doing made the difference.

To pretend it’s anything less of a grind than any other expansion is comical.

This is such a dumb reply, you obviously can’t comprehend the word yourself, because you’re the one with a biased opinion on mop because you had fun, that’s not being objective Numbwat. If you put your fun to the side, and look at it from a game POV, you’d know. :cowboy_hat_face:

No Numbwat, my opinion that MoP classes were fun, but if I take a backseat I know they were trash. Good class design is in the definitional context of Classes in WoW. MoP no class had a flavour because everyone could do the same stuff. Which = bad class design because it’s not a class :drooling_face:

PVPing plenty at challenger is like playing Chess with your dog and asking things to be changed at the pro level.

“Insane grind” Mate, go play Carebear Island if you consider that an insane grind.

Strangely, this can be bought with a simple BOE item for between 1/4 mill-3.5 mill. I suspect once the token quota has been made they will be correctly adjusted. :man_shrugging:

Man you are really clueless…symbios was awesome. Nothing played like demo lock. Mage was also super different. So many classes felt unique. Anyways still your opinion. I subjectively liked it. Said that. Guess what that means, I can comprehend the definition of subjective and objective :crazy_face:

Cool story Bob.

Give me a PvP grind any day of the week, no problem. Let me list the number of non PvP grinds for ya.

Azerite
Cloak
Essences
Corruption is half
Residum for bis

Again you don’t care about this crap but some people do. I’ll do arenas and bgs all day long but that crap is dumb. Glad you seem to like it though.

What grind are you talking about? Can you elaborate?
I have my BiS essences, I’m 452ilvl, my neck is 76, and I am casual.
Nothing I’ve done would I consider a grind.

Lmao, this is how I know you don’t know what you’re talking about when you consider mage being different in mop lmao. You contradicted your own definition too.

There is no azerite grind right now, this is a lie.

How is this a grind lmaoooooo

Want the best tier, go out and get it, it doesn’t get handed to you.

Been leveling plenty through pvp… I’m almost 77 just doing lowbie CR rbgs

Outside of first quest, doesn’t take much pve to get the cloak leveled… also don’t really need it unless running top mythic raiding or rated pvp.

Some good pve and pvp ones.

Do people actually care about this? I cleanse half my stuff

Get my bis through pvp basically.

Wait til you play with an infinite star and get back to back procs. Or a twisted appendage and 2-3 tentacles spawn and kill something 80-0 while you are in the middle of a cc chain. Certain ones are mini nukes on your gear. I think locks toward the end of the patch will be nearly one shotting with big bolts if they have the right stat increase corruptions.

No one is asking for it to be handed out. Its that the content in 8.3 for us to do to get geared isn’t as fun for me. It feels like the game as a whole has gotten worse every patch this expansion instead of better like in legion. That’s why I remain very skeptical about shadowlands. From 8.0 to 8.3, there hasn’t been anything that has made me think “oh this is getting better.”

I boosted an alt, I don’t expect an alt to be 460 in 1-2 weeks. Its not the gear climb that concerns me. It’s starting with no rep, 0 essences, and farming 16 vessels to upgrade the cloak. Looking at it on paper it doesn’t seem bad at all. Having to experience the extremely boring content again is whats killer.

I’m glad you remain optimistic though.

I’ve got both of these, and sure that can happen but you can also just die from them, Herc and I dueled like 100 times literally, and corruption would screw me by killing me or breaking vital CC. It’s quirky, high risk, high reward gameplay, so it’s not as simple as get these items and destroy everyone lol.

Because it was any funner in Legion to get gear lmao. Was even harder for pvpers to get gear in Legion.

8.2

You don’t even need any of these. Every class I play which is a lot, doesn’t need rep for their essences soooo. You don’t even need to upgrade your cloak that much… They’re not that devastating.

Legit buddy, just don’t play, as i’m sure you aren’t just keep it that way until you see things that impress you.

Me being optimistic comes from looking at things properly, I trash BFA hard, I quit for a while to the point I felt so much apathy to this trash expansion that I uninstalled WoW and stopped logging back into bnet. I sat there with my boy reavey & asmongold (3 of the biggest wow lovers reduced to that) playing apex talking about how depressing the state of the game was, but then 8.2 came and showed blizz still can make content good, and then i quit for a while again cause of IRL stuff, and came back for 8.3, a very bare bones patch but lots of promise showing in SL so i’ll get my characters ready for SL then quit again until prepatch.

Why quit since though since you’re enjoying 8.3 so much?

because Shadowlands is coming out in September, and no last patch in the history of WoW has ever been engaging enough to last 7 months.
I’ll be playing the Alpha/Beta though.
