Challenge Mode Weapons and Armor

[Kiyoko-ravenholdt]

If something is only valuable to you because others cannot have their own, I hope all value you find in your achievements vanishes.

Stop lying.

You mathematically cannot 4 man scaled down content that’s tuned for 5 people unless you exploit

[Kiyoko-ravenholdt]

If only your disbelief could alter facts.

[Arcturax-malganis]

@Lucrend-stormrage

Yes they could. People sold carries all the time. Trade chat was spammed with carry sells.

For people without a group…

They still had to pilot their toons, which they had to.

You CANNOT 4 man that outside of exploits

Show me footage of a 4 man GOLD clear of a CM dungeon that doesn’t exploit

Proof. They even advertise a sale at the end.

Not only was it possible, but it was extremely common

[Arcturax-malganis]

Ight I’ll take that L.

But again, you cannot assume that everyone who did it was carried like that…

[Lucrend-stormrage]

@Arcturax-malganis

Ight I’ll take that L.

I can respect that.

@Arcturax-malganis

Not saying they did. I’m just saying there were those that DID buy carries and as much as they were advertised I’m sure it’s not an insignificant amount. That alone destroys any “prestige” argument.

I love my challenge mode gear and it means a lot to me but let’s not pretend it was a really hard task at the time

Modern m+ players would make it look like a meme

There was someone (not sure if it was in this topic or one of the other ones) that said CM dungeons are more difficult than +10s.

[Arcturax-malganis]

@Lucrend-stormrage

No it does not…you have to presume it’s all legit… Because it’s the nature of the achievement.

So you have to treat it as such.

You cannot treat it as the unintended exception

[Kiyoko-ravenholdt]

@Arcturax-malganis

you have to presume it’s all legit

No, I don’t. No more than you’d have to presume it’s all from MoP if they unlocked the vendors next Tuesday.

[Arcturax-malganis]

Achievement date…

Hard to say because we didn’t have the experience back then as we do now, going from memory it probably felt around a 10 at the time

But our strategies were virtually nothing compared to today

Edit: a 10 is also really hard to gauge the difficulty of now because of really high seasonal power creep

[Lucrend-stormrage]

@Arcturax-malganis

No it does not…you have to presume it’s all legit… Because it’s the nature of the achievement.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

No no no, it’s prestigious if you ignore the facts and only believe what I’m telling you.

[Kiyoko-ravenholdt]

I love the thought that if they make these available, your insecurity would be so bad you’d be trying to check achievement dates like you are the arbiter of who “deserves” their cosmetics. That’s adorable.

[Arcturax-malganis]

Do you live by exceptions or rules?

And this right here is what I’m talking about when I say “some people have their self worth tied to rented pixels”.

So hyperbole and personal jabs?
