Does Scarcity make loot “Meaningful”?

I don’t think it’s over rewarding. It is over rewarding. But every one knows Blizz has to over reward the content so participation numbers look good.

Aside from most CE level guilds actually do require it the first week. It’s better to not claim things when you don’t have any idea what you’re talking about.

Probably because he’s so mad he engages with me first. This also isn’t the first thread he’s done it in.

Dudes clearly
Mad.

What’s really funny is you’re such a white knight but aren’t even correct in the majority of things you post.

It’s ok though not everyone has good game knowledge.

I’m a white knight because I defend delves?

It’s obviously an opinion that Blizz does not share. Get over it.

Then don’t run with a CE level guild? /shrug Or maybe talk to the guild leaders and tell them to stop being idiots and stop trying to skip steps?

The reason these guilds want to do Delves to get gear, is because they don’t feel like actually doing the progression part of progression raiding or M+. They wanna skip that and go straight in for early clear. They are always looking for exploits or what-not.

I mean, even top World-First Guilds have gotten in trouble with Blizz countless times for using exploits to game the system.

If I were in Method, I’d be absolutely ashamed of myself, probably would have ducked out, when I saw them using exploits to achieve their ill-gotten world firsts.

No guild that has ever exploited loopholes actually deserves the honor of the world first clears, and IMO, the ones using Delves to skip ahead don’t deserve it either.

But don’t punish the rest of us because of what a few people out there are doing, lol. that’s ridiculous and stupid.

But… he didn’t engage with you first.

He posted 2 posts before even responding to you. If he “followed” you into this thread, he would have responded to you straight away and not 2 posts later.

Fixed it for you.

Is that why you’re begging for gear those players are wearing? Who’s basing self worth on pixels now.

Why though…?

What goes wrong if we " checks notes" let the 1% of 1% of mythic players gear quicker.

Of course they aren’t going to publicly admit. Are you really that obtuse?

Why would I not run with CE guilds when my goal each tier is CE?

I know you clearly have zero clue about higher end gameplay but the more prepared and faster you’re able gear up the sooner you can actually get into mythic.
Having more chances at hero track tier makes getting 4 piece for the team faster.

Yeah you’re absolutely clueless. The reason ce and HoF guilds have requirements is to get to the actual progression faster.

You think heroic is actually progression?

This meant an exploit and the fact you’re trying to compare them shows you have no clue what you’re talking about.

Go look at post 24 so you can stop embarrassing yourself on two fronts.

Begging? Oh no, if it was that big of an issue I wouldn’t be playing. I 100% think every single item should come back and be available but it’s not that serious. It’s the ones that lose their minds at the thought of “scarce” items coming back.

Um, not me…

If you want gearing to be faster, remove raid lockouts.

Let’s not have yet another reason for people to spam M+.

(Then people play for like a month, and quit for 5 months.)

Can also delete mythic gear, now no more time locks on gear.

He posted #16 before that. Go look. He didn’t respond to you on his first post in the thread.

If he “followed” you into this thread, he would have responded to you first before anything else.

^^
This is pretty much why they have the lockouts, yeah.

Timegating is an absolute requirement.

And besides, Delves don’t even give Hero all that often anyhow and usually when it does, it’s your 6th pair of boots in a row or maybe your third ring, but all 3 of them are identical with Unique-Equipped on them, just to screw you over.

Scarcity is very validating for the Neckbeards.[/quote]

It’s a pretty real driver of value IRL too. (Even if that scarcity is only perceived in many cases)

Issue is mythic raiding is to easy till the road block mid boss.

You would see each boss killed 20 times in a row then progressed past it wouldn’t be fun.

Huh? I used to do 15s since legion for max vault/chest and basically be good to go. Cant do that anymore.

Yup, what happens when you like class/content variety. But could be more like pvp gearing!

Yep, it wouldn’t be fun.

Now you’re nitpicking. End of the day he engaged with me first. Stop being obtuse.

I see you ignored the CE stuff. Have a good one :joy:

I don’t think anything really makes the loot meaningful considering it’s usually replaced and useless in about six months.

Keeping up with the Jone’s comes to mind.
