I’m saying that if you are failing at 619 it isn’t because of gear. It’s because of a lack of mechanical and gameplay knowledge that 7ilvls wont compensate.
+7 has a 77% HP/Damage modifier.
+8 has a 95% HP/Damage modifier.
+9 has a 114% HP/Damage modifier.
+10 has a 136% HP/Damage modifier.
I literally don’t have a dedicated group. I pug every season.
So because you’re among the top of the top, you wanna act all high and mighty about how easy it is and how everyone should be able to do it…
You have FOURTEEN THOUSAND POSTS on the forum… that alone proves how much time you spend on this game… which is not even remotely reasonable compared to even 90% of players…
Again, how much are you selling them carries for kid?
I’m going to try. Truly, truly try, to explain this as easily as possible.
Okay, so 9’s are timetable in 610 item level. Many people were doing so, some even in lower item level.
615 item level very much so outgears the 9.
The 5-7 item level buffer is not making a difference for obviously a certain amount of people.
Adding 5 more item level is not going to magically remedy inherent mechanical shortcomings.
What analogy could I use here.
It’s like someone saying “there are several people that can run the 100 meter dash in 10 seconds. Me and my friends can’t. But we could if we had better shoes.”
Never mind the fact that the people making the 10 second time are practicing the actual running, and not making excuses about the shoes.
Also, at what point did I EVER say 9’s would be hard with 619 gear?
The only thing ive said is that to grind your way to 619, is absurd.
The grind to 619 is not as grindy as the grind to mythic gear has been in nearly every previous season ever… but its close… and then you have to do it again to get myth geared. They’ve nealry doubled the grind to get myth geared.
So what will you do with this free mythic gear? Go do world quests and role play with brann going through a delve? You can already do that with 600ilvl. I cleared a +9 delve with sub 600ilvl the first week. Higher numbers isn’t going to all the sudden make you a great player or help you clear anything faster.
You know you don’t have to start with weathered crests in order to convert, right? I can’t speak for anyone else, but if I ever reach that point I’ll just be converting my weekly runed crests into gilded ones.
You folks need a ‘special server’ so you can strut about away from us mere mortals. I don’t think you realize what it sounds like to most of us. Talk about entitled…
I cleared a +10 dawnbreaker with 615ilvl a few days ago. It wasn’t difficult, and yes we did overgear it at that ilvl and even smashed it with a full pug.
