Emissary rewards are a bit much

[Nayaga-lightbringer (Nayaga)]

The actual issue is Blizzard rapidly invalidating their own content.

Might be a desperate attempt to keep customers running in the Hamster wheel and subscribed.

[Audrena-dathremar (Audrena)]

they’re still very alive

They’re undead. Found in the same dictionary of “Buzzwords Past Their Use-by Date” as that old chestnut “immersion”.

[Macabae-stormrage (Macabae)]

jealousy of others is very unbecoming.

self satisfaction with what you have done without bragging is much better approach to life.

[Cryosage-moon-guard]

Stop your crying and get over it. Not everyone has the time in their lives to commit to a raiding guild, and getting into or creating +10 groups is not as easy as people try and say it is. I’ll stick to my world quest/warfront rewards.

[Winchestor-proudmoore]

Actually, their content is being invalidated. I don’t even raid or do Mythic plus anymore, and I can see it. Why does new content last a patch instead of an expansion? BC Ion only cares about killing current content, so he understands nothing else about an RPG.

Having progression actually kept the game alive, now it’s a dead husk of its former glory. Battling through content a tier or two behind used to be casual content. Now crap like WQs and can’t lose WF scenarios are.

8.2 comes out in a month

lolno it most certainly will not be out in a month

[Emopicklez-thrall]

Thats fine an if blizzard is just going to hand out heroic gear for easy content why cant they add in cosmetic rewards or something more than just a feat of strength for the people that actually do heroic raids an plus 10s

[Jcôn-aerie-peak]

How does this even affect you negatively? You already have gear, had it before others, have had lots of time to use the gear you’ve obtained. yet you still feel bad that someone who either levels up an Alt, or switches their main cant catchup quickly? Even if its a person who doesnt raid and only does emissary’s, why shouldn’t that person find some progression?

Sounds like the whole Lord my Mythic gear over your emissary gear argument again.

[Degame-stormrage (Degame)]

my main won’t need wq probably but my alts are going to love them

[Spiçy-area-52 (Spiçy)]

Who knew welfare gear would be such a sore spot. For people not carrying about gear they sure come out in masses to defend gear.

[Kevansorbo-tichondrius]

I question if you’ve been playing WoW for years or if you are new. You are crying because you think it invalitdating content and gear. But you are probably the same one that cryed when blizzard did the stat squish from Legion until now. Not only is it a catchup mechanic its also giving you what you wanted and your amazing hp pool back. Blizzard does what other MMO’s don’t and thats trying to welcome new and returning players instead of alienating them. Its a buisness. If you want the same old same old where nothing changes go play super mario or an adventure platform.

[Polarbears-gorgonnash]

I live this change…give me options to get decent gear without doing dungeons or raids.

[Spiçy-area-52 (Spiçy)]

This whole brick of sobbing is just one sentence of shoving words into my mouth after another

How do you want me respond to you stretch Armstrong levels of reaching?

[Xintao-tichondrius]

Optimistically it comes in June but even then the new raid isn’t out that soon. Item level increase with emissiaries is way too soon IMO.

[Kevansorbo-tichondrius]

Guy its in your post. Its crying because you feel that Blizzard has wronged you. You probably have post QQing about the AP catch up they did. People can read and tell you’re throwing a temper tantrum. Its a game, they’re a business. They will always try to bring new people into the game either it be brand new or returning. You can complain all you want but you’re the true issue to the game. They’re always going to try and make ALL players feel like the work the do is rewarding it doesn’t matter if you are a Quester, Pvper, Raider, or M+ raider. Blizzard will always try to include and recapture players.

[Kromtarn-zuljin (Kromtarn)]

I get the feeling this is more to help alts get ready for the next patch rather than anything for your main.

[Spiçy-area-52 (Spiçy)]

You probably have post QQing about the AP catch up they did.

Sure didnt

Any other accusations? Or do you wanna stomp your feet some more and pretend you know what you’re talking about?

Feel free, I’m here for you. I’ll be the shoulder you cry on. You can even yell at me as you deal with your insecurities. Shh shh, it’ll be ok.

[Xintao-tichondrius]

I agree but I still think it is too soon for that.

[Spiçy-area-52 (Spiçy)]

This is where I stand. Catchup mechanics have existed for some time but they usually don’t come so soon. Theres going to be a few months still until the next raid drops. So why now?

[Lepermessiah-thunderlord (Lepermessiah)]

Yes im a terrible person because i think the guy who does heroic raiding deserves better rewards then the guy who just do queable content an world quest.

How awful of me for thinking that diffcult content should have better rewards then world quest…

But once again if its blizzard will that gear is no longer the end game reward they need to add others

Ion had stated many times they want players to get high level rewards from alternate sources so they don’t feel “forced” into doing a certain thing like raids or mythics to progress. Also, it’s weird but, if you look at the loot table for mythic BoD, every item is 415+. I might be wrong but I was under the impression that 415 is a bigger number than 400. Mythic CoS goes up to 425+. Unless you’re new to the game, you should know that the grind never stops.
