I was under the impression the item was gonna be a 400 item level weapon, to catch people up to the new zone.
I donât know where the 415 came from, but 370 is garbage. Why even bother putting it in there?

Comparing a mid-xpac patch to a new expansion is comparing apples to kidney beans.
You donât need a raid quality weapon practically mailed to you in order to do this content.

How would you know, you donât even appear to be playing this expansion.

People saying âIm playing classicâ over this is EXTREMELY ironic considering classic will have no free top tier drops from an essentially âwelcome backâ quest⌠not even closeâŚ
Again, anyone who expected to gear like mythic raiders for a welcome back questline while the 415 raid tier is the current content still is part of the reason gear isnât as rewarding anymore. The fact that threads are now yelling at blizzard for not giving away mythic gear is insane. I have heard everything now.

Itâs odd that would be the crux of your argument considering youâre on a 55 alt with a hidden profile.

the ilvl will increase when season 3 drops, if you do the content before then you loose the drops

ya know that might just be the answer.
So I may just wait until two more weeks pass except take my main on my old account and work two weeks on ulocking flying and on this alt that I hoped to make my main and instead do the war campaign, and perhaps some odds and ends for two weeks.
My Shaman has 400 or better so anything less than 400 is pretty much scrap.
Thank you for the idea about this.

I was testing with a 330 character that I stopped playing when Iâd hit 120. I was given a 370 weapon, when I tested on the PTR, which was probably late in the testing cycle. I played the PTR long enough to conclude that the content was boring even when my ilvl was 340. I still felt mostly indesctructable. I honestly donât know what people are looking for in this game anymore. They want it to be so trivially easy that they one-shot everything in the world?
What does that mean? 8.2 content is trivial with 370 gear? I agree.
What makes you think Iâm joking? You would have given everyone 415 weapons? And thus nullify any time investment people had made in the last 9 months? You must be joking.

We also donât need an ilvl weapon that can be obtained from any random WQ. I think 415 would have been too high but 385-400 would be perfectly reasonable.

Average hp of some of the normal mobs is 200k, with elites going up to 600k and WQ bosses without scaling sitting at 5 million hp.
I do think an increase in ilvl was necessary.

I agree with you. 385 would have been more reasonable.
I would love to know which class/spec you played - also I wonder if zone scaling wasnât playing a part in that. My 401 rogue died three times already in there and I had all kinds of buffs as well.

What? Is this your first MMO?

Prot Warrior.
To be fair, I think all tanks are broken in world content, so that might be the reason everything felt trivial even with crappy gear. The game design of solo content seems pretty lazy these days.

Yes. It is my first MMO. Been playing it since 2004. How does that change anything?
Great, me too. So youâve noticed that over the course of 15 years that player âinvestmentâ has been nullified countless times and has always only been a temporary thing.

None of what you said is true. It is still season 2. AotC and CE are still up for grabs. Reaping is still the seasonal affix. Mechagon isnât out yet.

And you didnât need it to start a new expansion, but here we are.
