I think they will. It is going to take a bit of time to rank and you can get all or most of the pre-raid BiS leveling in the 50s pre-60. People are also going to be hitting Ony and MC to gear for PVP during the ranking. You still want strong weapons pre-R14, Bonereaver’s Edge for example.
Pve kids losing their minds now that they can’t ravage the open world 1 shotting everyone.
Time for a new classic
I dunno, if they go with the lower number they were testing on the ptr it would be several weeks of playing like 3 hours a day to get rank 14 wouldn’t it? I can’t see most people wanting to do that exclusively instead of farming bwl or dungeons. If they went with the higher number it would be like 40 hours a week which I don’t think would become expected in anything but the sweatiest raids. That’s just too much of a time commitment to expect most people to do. Even the lower number is like 25 hours a week. Unsustainable for weeks straight for people with jobs or actual lives.
Dude that’s the point of gdkp.
Nobody gives a f what your gear is as long as you got visa MasterCard or Amex by your side.
Also it’s wow classic lol. If you need r14 to down mc you got bigger issues
THANK YOU. It’s huge to have someone out there like you. Everything you have been kind to me about and have liked really means A LOT.
I’ve acknowledged from the start that people like this change and I’ve acknowledged from the start that some people have had bad experiences on their servers. I even told the OP the gear won’t matter.
Do you know what a lot of people haven’t acknowledged at all? That not every experience was bad. It reminds me of the people who hate LC and say that it is always corrupt because of what happened to them.
I don’t understand why I can’t mention a pet peeve without being poked even more. On another thread on another forum, I had somebody absolutely putting me on blast for how I treat my family etc because I ranked and liked the PVP community. Few people came to my defense there. It sucks to feel alone but at the same time, I’m not going to be intimidated from sharing my opinions when I want to. Instead, it makes me want to fight harder.

Does everyone do GDKPs?
Yes actually
So you understand when I say it devalues things in raids.
Do you think Deathbringer will sell for more or less in a few weeks? Understand it now?
I think GDKP is a cancerous playstyle for a cancerous playerbase.

Thank you for input on something not asked. Do you just want to be noticed?
Less because a ton of ppl will be playing HC
It’ll still take months to get r14 lol.
Guilds absolutely will not care. My fresh healer will be in naxx first day of 60.
You don’t think that being able to grind out the R14 weapons easier makes Deathbringer less valuable?
I mean, its still a 3 month grind playing all the time…
Lots of ppl arent gonna want to do 750k a week for 3 months in a row… ESPECIALLY with all content being available.
just get a hatchet from naxx lol
I mean, I’m sure there’s a decent number of people who will do near the cap each week to get the gear. Considering its guaranteed.
1st you gotta get into a group for naxx, 2nd you have to kill the boss in said group, 3rd it has to drop, 4th you have to have more gold/rng than the other players that want it.
The other option is PvP when it’s convenient for you for a handful of hours a week. Get R14 weapons and save your gold for off pieces.
“handful”…
bro youre still talking 30-40 hours of pvp a week to top out… could actually be more. If youre only getting 10k HPH… guess how many hours you need to pvp for 750K.
Gonna be tons of premades… if you arent premading and youre solo queuing getting 5-6k HPH… OH BOY are you EFFED

You’re making it seem easier then what it’s going to be.
To hit Rank 14 with the new system as fast as the system allows is more than “a handful of hours a week when it’s convenient for you”.

Do you have to hit cap every week to get R14?
The change does make it easier for most.
They’re not making changes to make it more difficult, just so you know.
If you wanna get it done fast and beat the decay then yes.
Sure you cant derank from decay but so what… that push from 10 to 14 still gonna be tough.
Not nearly as bad as it used to be.
The fact you can nearly take weeks off is huge.
