Nope. There is only one. How is the gear gap fresh vs geared.

Even if you are blinding yourself to the time spent achieving gear metric, how is an ilvl of increase of around 150+, azerite traits, corruptions and essences even remotely close to static ilvl?

A geared player could 2-3 shot a fresh 100 just like it happens now. The magic of scaling.

Only if they popped all their cooldowns and the fresh player did not use defensives. Now that kind of 
is happening all the time from a f***ing corruption proc. You consider that magic?

That wasn’t the only time.

Disregards how busted corruptions are and the blatant use of the busted trinkets.

I’m not disregarding anything. Fresh toons now are the same as wod.

Fresh toons in WoD had to spend a maximum of 2 hours to get the starter honor set which only put them behind the conquest set by 10 ilvls. Now fresh toons need to grind at the very least 100+ ilvls, azerite traits, essences, and corruptions before even stepping foot in bgs or they just flop over?
What kind of twisted logic are you using to state that is even close to WoD?

Exaggerate much? Doesn’t take much to be bg ready. Also, the comparison is only about the power gap. Nothing about getting gear.

Go play heroes of the storm or lol. They have the templates you so desire. Wow is an rpg. Gearing matters in rpgs.

So does class balance and varying methods of achieving the gear. All of which was thrown in the dumpster.

Disregarding the power gap levels since we are just going in circles. How you could make the gap smaller is important too. In WoD you could do it solely through PvP. Throughout BfA we have been expected to sit through the tedious grind of PvE infested scenarios.
Except you said the gap is worse now than wod. It isn’t. That’s the point I made.

And I said it is…hence the circle
Fresh players in wod were down in 2-3 hits just like now.

We are obviously not going to agree on the depth of the power gap. So lets just move on to -

How much time invested does it take to make the power gap not a sh!tshow?
There are various catch up mechanics that you can use but that would require a small effort which you clearly don’t want to make.

Catch up mechanics entirely rooted in PvE, which has turned PvP into a system dependent on the scraps from PvE. Remember when the 2 were separate systems, which allowed players to focus on only the methods they enjoyed while not putting themselves at a handicap in terms of strength.

Yes there is a tiny effort you must put in to acquire higher power in wow. I am sorry that is so hard for you.

The only thing I quoted you on was the power gap. If you want to move on, that’s fine. A little pve is not a big deal to me tbh. If you had to mythic raid, we’d be having a different discussion.
