Thats fair enough on that regards.
I’d love it if M+ was stupid hard and only gave cosmetics. Great for flexing but not needed for any progression.
Not at all crazy considering the end boss is basically unbeatable after the last tuning phase. Some classes struggle to even clear T8 as it is, they quite literally have no shot at soloing that guy.
Edit to add: delves are very popular. I’ve run over 100 now and there is always people outside each one I go to, even at 4 am last night when I did my last run of the night there were people outside.
My shaman got a 616 tier helmet from doing a delve I practically sleep-walked through. There has never been a way in the game to every week get a heroic level piece, including chance at tier, in the game before now. It is VERY easy to get loot that was well outside of this difficulty range for the last 20 years.
Having to do a couple world quests or stay awake during Machine is not a barrier of entry and if you keep doing them, you can buy them and self sustain.
Well yeah, but those players are bad, keyboard turn and don’t use CDs.
They are, but there are a lot of them. And they pay gladly every month to be catered to. I have know players who fish or pick herbs as most of their game play loop who play for years and years. And they get so excited when you carry them through a delve and they get 603 gear.
Okay well they need to learn and not be catered to.
Running +8delves daily 1 map every 2 day seem like.
With these ones, the candle/filter depletes as you move.
You can put them down in a good spot to fight and pull what mobs you want to your safe space without it depleting. The button is in the quest log under your current objective.
Once done, you can pick it up and move it again.
Also, jumping abilities like Heroic Leap, Wild Charge, Blink etc… can move you ahead without it depleting too.
How is that good for profits? Blizz is a business.
Edit: The new way of thinking. “Businesses don’t need to make money, so long as they do the things I like.” But that doesn’t work in the real world, at least not for long.
Are you implying it wouldn’t be proftiable to cater just to Vhiana specifically while ignoring everyone else?
I don’t know what I was thinking. If so long as the new monthly sub fee is 30 mil / month they can kick out all the scrubs and just keep the “good players”. Maybe even a mere 100K / month.
this is the thing that the whiney people seem to miss. the casuals like playing alts a lot more, and gearing them up with different classes, different specs is a game unto itself.
Delves are absolutely some of the best content since Legion.
Well, yeah, they’re incredibly easy and give champion and hero level loot. Of course they are popular.
Why trudge through heroic dungeons and then mythic 2-6 when you can just go solo a delve and get guaranteed loot at the end?
you say it like it’s a bad thing
why should “m+” or “raiding” give better gear? its only “harder” because you have to deal with people who dont attack… and stand around… if they are not pressing a key every global… then they are dead weight and they are why it is “hard”… where as “solo” is hard bec of skill of the player… if any content should give higher ilvl it is “solo” and not “group”… in a group setting … you have 4 other people to make up for the lack of gear… solo… you dont… yea…
Because… The… Hardest… Content… Should… Always… Award… The… Best… Gear.
I LOVE delves…hope they do them every expansion going forward.
Im not picky about gear…questing gear is enough for me…just give me mogs or something for delve rewards, personally. Maybe some pets and mounts too

Two expansions in a row that didnt make me want to vomit.
The game is moving up pretty fast in the world
