Bring back titanforging

It would be nice if loot drops could proc a free upgrade on their current track. This would help offset the crest/stone farm needed while not being a necessity. The biggest issues with it in the past was that you never had a way to increase your ilvl if your gear didn’t proc. This is no longer an issue.

No thanks. That made getting gear a living hell.

I think you’re missing the point, you don’t need it. It would just be a perk, you’re not missing out by not getting it. It’s just a bonus reward to save you some crests/stones.

Nope. Do higher content if you want higher gear. I don’t want to feel like I have to do lower content just for the proc, and I don’t want to be disappointed when the same item drops at a lower ilvl even though it’s on a higher difficulty.

Bull.

The only thing Titanforging did was make actual drops from the content you’re progressing on worthless unless it ALSO titanforged, because you’d have titanforged stuff from the previous tier or difficulty already.

It was uncommon to go from nothing to max, but it wasn’t that uncommon to go from base to 2-3 ilvl bumps up, which was enough to upset gearing when you moved forward.

We already get way too much free gear. We don’t need more, and certainly not in a form that forces an endless RNG farm.

Idk I think the upgrades are OK the way they are, but maybe a slight, slight increase in occurrence, cuz the avoidance, speed and leech plus occasional sockets just allow for more fun play, especially speed lol. My hunter has around a 10 percent speed boost before any talent based passives kick in, plus being Nelf. He fast af boiii, I got the need for more speed :sob:

I think some people just got their knickers in a knot because there was a one in 100,000 shot that a world quest trinket could become a BiS item lol

Titanforging was bad then and would be bad now.

Again, I think most of you are missing the point.

If you finish a +10 the end of dungeon reward is 613 (2/6 Hero). What I’m proposing is that it could proc to a 616 (3/6 Hero). It’s the same item, same track, just a free upgrade. Farming crests/stones does not take skill, it takes time. This would simply help speed that up, much like when they raise the weekly crest cap at the end of expansions.

I mean, if it’s limited to only ever being the same track, I guess it’s fine?

But it’s also unnecessary since there’s already a system in place to upgrade to the top of the track.

On that note lol, I got a Hero track trinket from the Ulduar TW raid weekly that gives crit passively and like 11.7k Str or Agi on use every 2 mins and is off gcd so it got added to my Empower/Pillar/Frost Strike macro that if included in BiS assessments would probably rank at least A tier if not S :sweat_smile: not the same but close I guess

The problem is you’re still weekly capped to 90 crests per week. This would help off-set that by potentially giving you a bonus upgrade or two in that week.

That’s… not titanforging.

It would be by today’s standards. Warforging/Titanforging is when gear would proc +ilvl. That would be the same as what I’m describing, you’re gaining +ilvl (track progress) for that item.

Yeah, if it were on the same track and just saved you some time so far as upgrading an item you would have gotten anyway, that would be cool. But i guarantee people would still get upset about it, especially someone like me gearing exclusively via Delves and getting a hero track piece fully upgraded for nothing.

So, you don’t see where the confusion is coming from? It’s not titan-forging. We experienced actual titan-forging and it sucked… should probably call it something else.

Maybe they will one day, but the wannbe elitist players whine and cry too much about it. I had an absolute blast getting random mega upgrades on WQs, dungeons, and M+ back in Legion.

It’s an intentional timegate though. It’s not like Blizzard designed it that way and then went “oopsie, they can’t upgrade everything even if they farm all night, but it’s too late to fix it now!”

If the issue is being walled by the crest gate, then the obvious ask would just be to remove or reduce the crest gate rather than add another entire RNG system on top so lucky people can bypass it.

Anyone who cares about people gearing from delves are irrelevant themselves. Do whatever content you want. Hero gear is still hero gear. Its irrelevant at higher tier content.

How quick people forget the nightmare that was spamming +2 maw of souls because it was the easiest key to do and to 3 chest (back when 3 chest meant something). Also it was the shortest.

There is a reason why Blizzard removed you getting an extra loot chest if you completed a key above 20% and another chest on top of that if you completed above 40% time remaining. Instead moving the extra chances at loot from a key to timed +11’s or higher
