I’m not a huge fan just because the gems are generic and boring and tier is way better, but that’s still a lot of words to say:
“Raids will have drops with special sockets and gems that go in them. Having 3 of the same color will give a set bonus in the raid.”
IKR? I was watching a video explaining it just yesterday, and I thought to myself…ok, pick a class, pick a spec, pick talents, pick a covenant, pick a soulbind, pick conduits, pick legendaries, pick gems.
Gear accordingly.
Then min/max it all 4 different ways for 4 different types of content - Raids, Mythics, PvP, and Torghast.
Just thinking about it made me take a nap as I had the epiphany that I’d be noping out of all of it since I know it will all be obsolete come 10.0.
I’m so casual idek what to do besides collect system currency stuff. As far as spending any of it properly IDK.
Once I get back from beach (currently at OBX) I’m gonna switch my prot war to fury. Tanking is for poops and I’m straight terrified to tank in dungeons.
I have my main legendary on boots and a cloak and a secondary one on a ring. I am profoundly relieved as well
Chances are I won’t have domination gear unless it drops from LFR. But, on the off chance that I do, I am also thankful since my Legendary is on gloves and there isn’t any glove domination gear for clothies. (on my main, that is)
Or, well, I see technically some does, but it’s not part of the “five” that I would need.
Ok, set bonuses and sockets are cool and all but did they even stop to think about legendries? Wouldn’t it have been easier to make them all on a cloak or ring or neck or something that wouldn’t conflict with armor sets further down the line. I mean I assume they knew they were going to make sets with bonuses when they designed the legendries right?
The gear and gems only drop from normal and up. I think there’s Korthia gear with sockets, but no gems.
Item levels come and go, but Transmog is forever.
Ah, ok, then I can push worrying about that off my plate. lol
Exactly. That’s why I’m bitter about Anima (at least for now - we’ll see how much more we get later on.) I totally understand why people raid or do mythics for fun. Though, I’m not entirely sure why people beat their heads against the wall for things that will become obsolete, while calling transmogs “optional content.” lol
The previous game design used to allow them to collect data.
Now they use data to make game design.
There is a big difference between making a fun game and using data to measure that versus just making a game based on a spreadsheet.
