You right. I’ll just dive into this crappy gauntlet with 20 explosives spawning on every corner of the very narrow hallway. 
I wouldn’t mind that. Honestly I have no problem playing the keys I’m given. But if key variety is a requirement for loot but that variety is undermined by randomness of the keys available to you, it isn’t going to work out so hot.
I’m not knocking Valor as a system either. I think its a good way to do it, certainly better than what we have now. I just want the primary limitation to be my own skill and time, not RNG.

Ah yes the arcano crystal. The one I only got once it was obsolete and the one I found out my wife got in week 1 and had it in her bags for a month or 2 thinking it was bad.
lol I’ve tried pugging on my alts to get that one extra key done here or there. I only play DPS though, so its usually an insta-decline. There’s just too many of us.
Better to go ride in circles gathering herbs for an hour or two and buy the carry. Its stupid, but from a time management perspective its the best option. I’ve been meaning to rewatch the Expanse anyhow.
I also have no problem playing the keys I’m given, as long as they’re not SD. Or tyrannical PF.
Maybe I have a problem playing the keys I’m given.

You actually think I’ll be able to buy 220 gear when 9.0.5 drops? You actually think I can buy 213 gear once it drops? Lol. It will take weeks. Valor will be timegated. I dont need it. By the time I get ksm, i will have all 226 gear from the vault. I’d rather take 210 gear falling from the sky so I can get bis stats just by grinding it out.
If you genuinely have say 6/8 dungeons timed at 15, you really should be able to get a pug.
I don’t think this is a problem with the upgrade system, it’s one with the nature of Keystones.
Last week on my Druid I went from a 15 Halls, to a 14 Mists back to a 15 Halls back to a 14 Mists. I think a better solution is simply allowing you to reroll your keystone throygh some sort of system, or making the GV offer you your choice of X keystones based on how many slots you’ve unlocked.

Oh, I’m in love with that idea. Knowing my general luck though, I’d be seeing 3 SDs every week. Sadge.
oh I picked up a 955 ( or whatever the max ilvl was back then) 1 week before new xpac drop. Fun times
Well the solution to that is just making them unique. Cause yeah, duplicates would be kinda dumb.
Funny coming from a player that I’m 99% confident that bought a M Nzoth Carry last expansion or got carried by friends…
Pot calling the kettle black?
I had assumed that the system you offered would be giving out unique keys. You just don’t understand how bad my luck is, in general.
work on getting the dungeons you have that’s on the low end. Say plaguefall. Try queueing up for 5-9 levels. Same w/ the others that’s sub 10. Don’t try to get into 10s even though you have the gear level for it. Baby steps is all you need. Also try to get your own key level up if you can.
Yeah, I did, got aotc myself but liked the M mount. What’s your point? If you wanna waste a few million gold on something you are claiming to be capable of doing yourself, then go right ahead.
It’s so s hit lol. Half of the affixes are just cancer in there. Los for a healer is just bs.

Curious if this change will retroactively allow us to upgrade gear previously obtained.
Or if it will be the same crap shoot the corruption vendor was originally.
great question!
1800 is ilvl 220 gear calm down.
The system sounds fine. What would be stupid is letting people spam easy dungeons or WQs and rewarding them with 220 ilvl loot, even if it takes longer.
Rewards should absolutely be commensurate with the difficulty of the content.
