Embers of Fyr'alath Empowered - February 20

There was 0 drops in my group this week and we are on week 13 of it being able to drop just due to the fact it was too late for the fix.

That’s being optimistic…

Basically, that’s what I mean with their metagaming. Thanks for your whole comment.

We can check in these forums and find players that said “please don’t add a legendary for my class in the next expansion” among other similar comments.

Because, as you mentioned there’s a different playerbase mentallity now and Devs don’t address that properly.

They even did the whole Dinnar system in Shadowlands Fated season as a test but they didn’t provide any sort of BLP via currency in DF, similar to that system,

I can truly say I was excited when Fyr was announced, and now I will reroll off leggo classes in the future (although doubt I have to worry for awhile after this haha)

You’re good for another 10+ years…

Assuming they actually do anything, I’ve always assumed it works sort of like this:

Lesser ember = 0.01% increase
Greater ember = 0.1% increase

So after a few weeks your chance has gone up maybe 1-2%.

The comparison to things like Thunderfury proves someone doesn’t understand the comparison. (I don’t mean Lincc here, I mean this general argument)

Yes, TF was much rarer. I was in a hardcore guild back then, and I rem still using my TF in some Ulduar fights!!! That’s TWO FULL EXPANSIONS after the fact!!!

The Axe… ain’t that. It’s going to be useless in 6 months. There is absolutely no reason to gatekeep this item.

For better or worse, WoW is a “seasonal” game now. If we can’t enjoy the Axe for “this season”, then there’s no point.

And this Season was over 4-5 weeks ago. Too little, too late. From where I’m sitting, Blizz isn’t admitting they made a mistake, so much as saying:

It doesn’t even matter anymore… here… just have it and shut up.

THIS … SUCKS.

You’re the type of person who goes, “Oh geez patience is a virtue,” but will also be like, “Oh shouldn’t have waited til the last minute!”

Like bro, who asked? I don’t have 24/7 to play this game I do when I can and no one had any reason to expect this. Curb the attitude.

Flagged for trolling. Why are you even here?

I would say things like Rezans Gleaming Eye, Beloros, Cataclysmic Signet Brand, Augery of the Primal Flame, or other similar items so prop up average-bad players, yes.

It’s like Eye of Skovald and whatever the Feather was out of Nokhud Offensive. Having both items as a caster could represent 15-22% of overal damage done. Players without it were oftentimes not going to be able keep up without them in normal gameplay scenarios.

Now take a Melee wielding Fy’ralath, Augery of the Primal Flame + Rezans/Signet/Ashes of the Embersoul combined…

A character can practically play itself

Now listen to the feedback in the DK forums and give us a rework next expansion please. (I’m sure other classes have feedback thwy have been saying for a long time too)

One more week without leggo drop!
Not even one drop from 9/9 bosses HC! It feels awful!
At least im happy that my guild isnt beching me from mythic progression!

My alts seem fo get all bis trinket! But i still have two from mythic+ on my main! And no, m+ trinkets isn’t even close to bening as good!

Please bring back tokens for extra roll! It would at least give my two rng tries each week for trinkets!

Hopefully you will learn from the experience of legendaries this expansion that pure RNG drop is not a good way to distribute them. You could make it so much better if the first time you kill Fyrakk you start a quest to collect some number of Embers of Fyr’alath. Embers of Fyr’alath 100% drop from every raid boss, more of them from higher difficulty. This way you can see exactly when you’ll be done, and your exact progress. This opaque RNG way if doing things needs to end.

^ lol true. “don’t worry guys, we increased the drop chance”, (players cheering) then silence… "what do you mean, it went from .3 to .9% drop chance LOL…

Blizzard: “there is just no pleasing some people”

But in all honestly, I think Blizzard learned this lesson here. Should they have learned it previous tier with dragon boys? YES! they should have, but nobody is perfect. I do believe team 1 left the game, so you really only have team 2 working for you. Don’t be so hard on them.

this is what the great vault did.

instead of tokens, you get to choose from 3 pieces.

This is great, but can we get hard numbers? You did this “Bad Luck Protection” with legion legendries and it took me 6 months before I got one to drop. What’s the cap for this? What Percent does it stop at? Saying you have upped it could mean you increased it by 0.0001%. Please give hard numbers on this otherwise its just a “We did a thing” for Gaslighting to make it seem like you are listening.

wow, did they confirm those are the actual numbers? that is quite low. i take back my comments!

Ah, the ol’ classic Blizzard move.

Release something in a bad state.
Wait until everyone has exhausted themselves on the bad iteration.
Drastically improve this system.
Sit back and reap in all the “omg finally listening thank you” comments.
Scrap the system for a new, bad system, next patch.
