HAHAHA, funny joke. A lot of people really liked titanforging. They just didn’t post on the forums about it because they didn’t like being trashed by the hypertoxic elitist community. They found titanforging to give them an incentive to repeat content that otherwise would have given them the same reward that they already had.
YOU may not have liked titanforging. Funny thing, a lot of people who hated titanforging milked it for all they could, got perfectly itemized high titanforged gear, so high an ilvl that they couldn’t get upgrades from mythic raiding, and then blamed casuals and demanded that LFR be removed.
Devs need to get off this “random stats you’re stuck with” soapbox. What would save them an extraordinary amount of development time with gearing would be for gear to come with an ilvl and stat budget.
There is zero incentive to anything outside of mythic plus 15’s or heroic raiding.
I used to get bored and run low level keys with people and help them clear dungeons cause I could potentially get an upgrade from anywhere. Now I do my one 15 and heroic raid then stare at my transmog.
Been called toxic elitist far more than I have called anyone a filthy casual or anything like that. If im going to get called it anyway maybe I should earn the name calling…
The people who were anti-titanforging were amazingly toxic. Every thread had that undercurrent of “I can’t enjoy myself as long as even one player has a chance of getting a +5 upgrade they don’t deserve.” And of course the solution was always “REMOVE LFR NAO BLIZZ!”
Those are the jerks I’m talking about.
By the way, I don’t think “My RL is forcing me to run LFR against my will for a 1 in 10 trillion chance of an upgrade, remove titanforging!” is a legitimate reason to change the game.
I want TITANFORGING back, or item level incentive from all content in this game or a way for everyone of all skill levels to reach max item level doing the content they choose.
All high end content should just award unique transmog or achievements, mounts.
You don’t see me in any of these mage tower threads talking about cosmetic challenge nerfs.
I have no idea where you saw this stuff, but this must have been a minority.
People didnt like titanforging because it devalued the content they did. Any item that you looted felt like a loss if it didnt titanforge. Any equip you had never felt complete because it didnt receive that last upgrade level. And that cool item you got from the last raid? Its replaced by some random stuff wrong a world quest. It made gearing jarring, annoying and unfulfilling. Basically noone cared about LFR in itself.
It just put another rng-layer on top of the rng upon rng of gearing.
If you do more than me you’re a no-life toxic elitist and don’t tell me how to play; if you do less than me you’re casual baddy and need to get better if you want to talk to me.
Isn’t that how it goes?

I got a titanforged wep at the start of bfa. couldn’t replace it for that patch, and the patch after it. unless something titanforged really high again. really makes content feel worse when you received something months ago, and you basically know that it wont be replaced.
