No they shouldn’t.
I think group content should be the way to get BiS gear, or gear good enough for Mythic raiding, I do believe solo-play should be better, but honestly this is an MMO so…
The real reason anybody stands against a solo route to the best gear in the game is this: they feel it devalues the exclusivity of their own gear. They have their own systems set up and don’t have to deal with the toxic pug community.
So they went to gatekeep the exclusivity they see themselves having. That’s all it is. And they will make up any reason they can to try and get around this fact. That’s why their arguments don’t make any sense yet they’re still passionately against the idea of solo play reaping real gear progression.
They aren’t actually solo players. They are flat out just bad at the game and since they can’t get into groups or when they do they fail it’s easier to beg for bis gear and pretend to be a solo/casual player.
Or it’s the fact that this game has been designed around the best gear being rewarded from the hardest content and solo content is designed to have a 100% completion rate because it’s literally braindead.
There is no gatekeeping in this game and is literally just an excuse.
This character is 2 weeks old and already over 400 ilvl.
Like, imagine having to group with this guy. Can you imagine how awful an experience that would be? But this game is designed to force you to group up with this guy in order to progress your gear. Bad design. And blizzard needs to get ahead of this before it’s too late.
Go play diablo 3.
I don’t think diablo 3 is popular though despite all the solo progression.
Honestly I don’t think attacking someone is really helping your point man
Care to elaborate on your response?
You can already get pretty decent gear using only solo or casual play.
You are not a solo player if you do m+.
I’m actually a pretty nice guy. You’re just making assumptions because I made a point you disagree with.
If you were getting a free carry?
No it’s not.
Great design. Stop asking for bis gear form easy trivial content.
Which part are you wanting clarification on?
Well you just said no with no reason.
His comment is an illustration of the toxic community this game is plagued with. He thinks that anybody who wouldn’t want to play with him must be bad at the game.
This is the default mentality of the key runner. So Blizzard needs to get some solo routes going or continue hemorrhaging players. People don’t want to come home from work to wind down and deal with people taking out their emotional problems on others.
You have 19 yrs of content to play through. You’ll be fine.
Sorry I was responding to multiple people.
They should not make a world set because that punishes people playing more of the game or being successful at the game.
It requires people to have yet another set of gear to fill out.
Peoooe should not be punished for being successful because solo players want to exclude themselves from most of the game.
Isn’t that the way it is in WoW. Gear is their end point. Which is why all the M+ crowd clamored for unlocking valor. They want to finish upgrading their gear so they can stop running the same dungeons over and over and over again.
Nope. I just think people asking for bis gear from trivial content are bad at the game.
Nope. That’s actually the last thing they should do is cater to whiny bad players.
Hey man, if you want solo content, AI parties, and solo-paths galore, you could go play FFXIV. They have plenty of that
