Blizzard only listens to the 1%

OMG they listened to the 1%

They nerfed item levels across the board to lessen the gap between Mythic raids and dungoens.

They said they would when the dropped the item level for all crafted epics from professions. They said they were trying to drop the spread between tiers.

This drop pushed M0 and LFR under the threshold of epic to blue.

What is the problem here? How dare they listen to the 1% and make everyone more evem across thr board

ya blizzard forgets they have a bigger playerbase then jsut the top 0.01%… its a shame really

Here’s a song from Slipknot’s new album. Totally different style than you might expect. It’s more jazzy alt. rock than metal. This song is about Shawn Crahan (Clown)'s daughter dying of a drug overdose at 22. He plays drums on this track and has said you can feel his pain in the beat.



There’s no such treshold based on purely item level.

226 ZM Anima gear is Green, 226 Mythic Nathria gear and 226 Normal Sanctum gear is purple.

Color is usually based on acquisition method.

Somebody seems to have said current Beta build is back to Epic gear all around in LFR and M0s, so it seems whatever it was that made it blue as been fixed/reverted.

The color of gear has meant nothing for a long time. WoW has operated in seasons since legion and upgrading gear has been very important in SL. For both legendaries and epic gear. Gear being blue doesn’t mean anything anymore.

I wish this delusion was true, I’d have been a lot more happy since BFA.

Please, find me a single world first, mythic, pvp or m+/whatever you think qualifies as ā€œ1%ā€ that strongly advocated for covenants and azerite.

Please, put your money where your mouth is.

The color of gear hasn’t affected the stat budget for a very, very long time.

If they want to do it like Vanilla I’d be fine with that.
World content: Greens
5-mans: Blue
Raids: Purple

It would go by activity, not by ilvl

Lets think this through logically.

If you care about this, then that must mean that LFR is the peak of your willingness to put effort forth for gear.

If LFR is the peak of the content difficulty you are willing to engage in, then you don’t need gear anyways.

As such, this is a problem because?

Because you think the majority of players deserve neither gear nor content. You can’t feel good if anybody but the top few % has purple text on their tooltips.

We know who’s obsessed with font color, and it sure isn’t the people who run LFR.

But you care about this enough to post about how other people don’t deserve purple font colors in a freaking videogame, because it makes you feel bad that they’re getting a font color they don’t deserve.

If trying to discourage people from playing the game is the most important thing you can do with your life, maybe you have your priorities screwed up?

It’s a problem that you are working to make the game less successful. Why do you want wow to fail?

As a colorblind person, the color system for the gear means nothing to me

See, I keep telling you people to stop raiding. You don’t listen, news comes out that raiding sucks more than ever, and you’re upset about it.

Every single time.

You know who’s never upset over raiding news?

This guy.

Blue mats might be more common and cost less then, evens things out.

Not sure on it as I’d stopped doing active Enchanting years ago, but I recall from being a raider/crafter that I’d often find myself with far too many purple big shards and not enough blue medium shards.

I actually could care less if blizz handed out gear like candy. For all I care give world quests mythic gear. But acting like Blizz is some evil overlord for choosing to give the first four LFR bosses items that are blue in color instead of purple iis absolutely insane.

Yikes. Take a breath bud.

Who are these 1%? And why are they listening to them?

Do you even know what you’re talking about or are you just parroting buzzwords from the Internet?

You could? Because it sounded like you couldn’t care less. But since you could care less than you care right now, I’m curious what would make that happen.

Bureaucrat 19, You knew what it meant. Colloquialisms count

Omg what was the backlash like from the fans? I just listened to it. That is SO far removed from Slipknot’s usual style. I can’t speak on it being good or bad, but it’s very different and for that to be the opening track…

I mean it only has 1 million listens on Spotify compared to the dozens of millions on a couple others and then it just slowly peters out, lol.

They’re the WoW illuminati for people who’ve made the decision not to participate in most of the game.
