Everything wrong with BfA in one player quote

[Elïgos-stormrage]

Saw this comment on another thread. Made my stomach turn.

I was mythic geared last tier with only having killed one mythic raid boss. I am slightly over heroic raid geared currently after having run heroic partially only twice, and expect to be mythic raid geared by the end of the tier only having killed one or two mythic bosses again this tier.

Did they do M+s? You seem to be trolling by not giving all the information.

They didn’t elabortate. It doesn’t matter, though. Mythic dungeons should have it’s own gear. You should not get mythic raiding gear if you can’t complete mythic raiding content. Period.

I have often heard that mythic raiders do it for the “challenge” and not the gear.

This panic over their monopoly on gear ending refutes that.

Where are the mythic raiders complaining?

Do some M+10 and you can be geared as well.

Going by this forum, at every single opportunity. In fact, this thread is based on a similar kind of disgust.

But I asked specifically about mythic raiders complaining. Very few of the complaints, if any, about gear seem to come from mythic raiders.

Did you look at the guys profile to see what his actual content is?

[Argorwal-ysera (Argorwal)]

Isn’t this the natural result of the often requested alternative ways to gear and progess?

Likely a lot of +10 or higher keys and/or high arena ratings.

I still think the weekly cache needs to be removed though. Far too rewarding.

[Amberlin-stormrage]

But do you actually believe that this is “everything wrong with BFA?” If so, you must have a pretty high opinion of BFA, I think there’s a lot more that could be improved.

Does it really matter? If he’s geared for mythic raiding and hasn’t done any mythic raids, that’s just bad game design.

[Liaeatha-muradin (Liaeatha)]

The mistake you are making, OP, shared in tandem with the poster you are quoting, lies in associating any specific ilevel of gear exclusively with mythic raiding.

Having various methods by which to acquire good gear is actually a GOOD thing for the game, and draws far more people in than it alienates.

If you can come to terms with it on this level, I promise you your stomach will settle right down.

Cheers!

As a raider, I would say he gets his gear from Mythic+ running. As someone who raids and does Mythic+, I will say if he is running Mythic+10s to get his gear and never steps into a raid more power to him. Mythic +10 and beyond is no joke and requires just as much skill as raiding.

[Parabnormal-silvermoon (Parabnormal)]

That’s why I’m asking. Are you just believing his claim that he’s geared for it without him actually doing it? Or did you look at his profile to see what content he’s actually done? And is the gear he’s wearing optimized well for raiding? Or does it just have the high Ilvl with stats all over the place?

[Blitzkareeg-area-52 (Blitzkareeg)]

Couldn’t you have just posted this in this thread instead of making a troll post?

60 ilvl of titanforging? Seriously?

I was doing some casual content today, and got a piece of gear that would usually be ilvl 360 from that source. Instead, it titanforged all the way up to 420, higher than mythic raiding gear. This seems moderately ridiculous. The chances of warforging by 5 ilvl can’t be higher than 30%, based on having seen scores of warforges out of hundreds or maybe a few thousand drops this expansion. If the chances of each 5 ilvl of forging are the same, a 60 ilvl forge - 12 steps - should happen once in…

Seriously.

The original poster has done mythic raiding. They are complaining.

Do we have any stats or information on this?

There are basically no stats for any of the opinions on the forums.

In my frost gear I am item level 389 and I’m 390 in my fire gear (yes, I have two sets) I have six ilevel 400 pieces and I have only done one raid, Uldir normal 2/8. I’ve done one key (5) and I’ve done one LFR.
