now we can get a choice of 2 different slots on many weeks
a small change but definitely makes the grind more compelling
375 weapon week 1
can get 400 weapon in week 10 (2.5 months) unless you get one to drop earlier randomly from high rated play
not as good as what we used to get, nor as compelling, but still an improvement
Definitely a step in the right direction.
“For the weeks when the Conquest reward is not an Azerite piece, trinket, or weapon, players will be able to choose gear from one of two different slots such as legs and wrists, hands and back, or finger and feet.”
The Conquest Schedule is here,
I still want vendors. There was nothing wrong with the vendor system.
It is pure laziness on Blizzards part not to hire artists to design the sets, and then code them into the game.
Hopefully they put their best scientist on this complex issue and figure out how to make vendors for s3.
I mean… if we actually got the A team, B team, (or even C team designers) instead of the F team, they might be able to come up with vendors.
I went into Target the other day to buy some pants. I looked around and all I saw were shirts. I asked the clerk where are the pants. She said pants won’t be out for two weeks. Next week will be socks.
This is really one of the dumbest things I’ve seen Blizzard implement.
This was a good read.
Also you left off that you are so stupid that you may have bought socks instead of pants if they gave you all the options at the same time.
Eh the system really isn’t any better at all. Your chest item is still RNG and anyone over 1800 is still going to get screwed regularly.
I got 3 items that were upgrades in the past 10 weeks (one being the upgrade token). 30% success rate does not feel good. This last week I did arenas on 4 characters and even with the conquest items for alts I got 1 upgrade. 1… The one guy has half 340 gear still?!?
Only one of my five buddies have logged on in about a month… I’m really hopping they come back for season 2 or I may not stick around.
I finally found a class that I somewhat enjoy so I find myself excited for season 2. If I’m not having fun with the game then I will be playing something else.
Agreed, not only about the vendors but the really poor design of the current gear. Just sad.
This is only a good thing if it means we get to 400 and 415 ilvl items faster.
What would really be a good thing would be to get more choices on secondary stats for each slot. I’m a little concerned that a choice between two slots will mean less choices on secondaries in each slot, which would be considerably worse than the current system.
Nice, spriest? I’m leveling mine… Feels really fun. Tons of utility/cc which is kinda my style (supportish).
I will main this guy as always… Thinking maybe demo warlock as my second. Need to find a healer for him though…
Some good points here for sure. I also would love to see a huge buff to catch up for alts that scales up as the season goes on. Having to go through the whole system to get an actual competitive tier of gear is impossible at the moment. Not a single one of my alts has made it to the 370 gear yet. My monk is 365-370 ilvl now but entirely due to world bosses/incursions/warfronts. I’d rather he got it from PvP 
Pally actually. I have a horde ret and enjoyed it so much that I made an alliance pally but changed him over to prot for giggles. It’s been fun. When it inevitably gets nerfed I will just change him to ret and continue on.
But do you HoP and HoF spriests? I think that’s the big question.
I put my hands where they are needed if that’s what you are asking.
