Crafted gear and primal chaos

I feel like the amount of primal chaos needed to craft the purple gear should either get reduced, or they need to give solo players (don’t do dungeons, raids, or pvp) more ways to get it.

I’ve been playing since DF released and have only made one piece. Hitting the one or two world quests that give 2-3 each every few days, it’s going to take me forever to gear up.

Rares and world treasure also give them

The good news is you really don’t need that gear for open world content and when you do get it you will blast through said content.

Ultimately the open world gearing path may feel slower but the cap for what is needed is also lower.

True. But it’s still too mats intensive. I would imagine those who do dungeons, M+, and raid, would skip them entirely, making them entirely pointless. They should be lowered, so they can be stepping stones for those who want to advance, and to make it a bit easier for those who don’t. Either way you look at it, they aren’t getting made.

I think the idea is that it’s one leg of a whole gearing process and not meant as a way to gear out your character. Even running lots of dungeons it’s a slow slog. I think I have one toon with two pieces for example.

Im honestly curious what draws you yo this game if you avoid content that had people.

The class fantasy. Without going into detail… I was kidnapped as a child and now have SEVERE!!! social anxiety. That’s why I solo.

But why not actual solo player games that imo have a way better solo experience.

I do play some, and am waiting patiently for D4. But sometimes, they’re too difficult for me. I’m not that coordinated and have rather slow reflexes. Like, I enjoyed Halo and GoW, but I had to play on the easier setting. WoW, mechanically speaking is a lot easier, and therefore, more fun for me.

While it might br a difficult process im sure you could find a casual guild and start raiding on normal. Just feels like youre playing 1/5 if the game.

Turn off chat, queue, pretend everyone else is bots, ez win.

And I have to say, as a solo open-world player, that it feels about right to me.

I’d probably feel different if I were wanting to gear up a whole slew of alts as a solo player. But I mostly play this guy, and don’t do much with alts once they hit max level.

In my case? It’s about the basic game play, sight-seeing, and finding out what the game engine will let me get away with in the open world. Something low-stress to unwind with after a long day.

yeah, blizzard missed the boat on who uses crafted gear and as a consequence, professions are a mess.

Solo play needs to reward more and mythic plus needs to reward less primal chaos.

They have been increasing it from world content but it can’t take solo players a month to make a piece and that is what is happening. The number of quests they have rewarding this is fine IF the quests were dailies but at a twice a week turnover, it just doesn’t work.

Plenty of turn based RPGs or RPGs with slower paced content.

Also :

But you’re posting on the forums where tons of people can and will judge you somehow ? :thinking:

That’s quite a bit different than group content where communication and performance is vital. The anxiety that generates is off the charts. Talking to people who will forget me in a days time isn’t nearly as bad.

On a forum, I’d say communication is quite vital, and your performance is public for us all to look over.

That’s WoW group content in a nutshell.

You’ll never see these people again and they won’t remember you in 10 minutes after the run.

There is no rationality is being able to post here and not being able to join a group run in WoW. Both are the same experience pretty much. Oh, except one thing : there’s way less communication in group content in WoW. Most people are like “hi, gg” and that’s it.

Ralimir you are a douche.

You have to be a kid or are so immature it’s pathetic. Leave this person alone. Sometimes it’s okay not to give your opinion. Grow up!!

Thank you, very nice of you.

Sure 19 post mage. Except I won’t.

I have as much right to post my opinion as they or you do.

Just remember not to break the forum rules doing it.

Not in easily queue’d content.

You’re acting like all group content is equal, it’s not.

Sure you need communication in a +20, for lfr, go watch a video, for Heroic dungeons, just jump right in.

While I appreciate the sentiment, that wasn’t entirely necessary either. They have their opinions, just like everyone else. The truth is, I don’t have to explain my choices to anyone. I mean, who cares? Right?
