Gear isn't more meaningful

Interesting take from someone who uses 6 dungeon runs as contrary evidence to my statement about a different mode. A statement backed by the head developer stating loot would be reduced.

So your complaining about something that isn’t even in the real game yet and no-one knows about?

A lot of the beta information was changed on release. The first sentance in the article is them admitting how little they really know…

Mines based off my own experience, and you can even look me up on the armory if you don’t believe me. The article on the website is just their to bring in viewer traffic for advertising.

It’s going to be in the game. The reasoning behind it still stands. You did 6 dungeons and you think they didn’t reduce it when they’ve had multiple interviews stating they would. But hey, if you keep up the shilling they might just hire you for one of those min-wage Activision CS jobs everyone is so fond of.

“So the exact quantities are still evolving (please don’t quote me 100% on this)”

The guy they are interviewing admits to the uncertainty of everything in the article as nothing but speculation for the future. With all the changes they are talking about being mentioned.

The article was made months ago, there is plenty of justification to cast doubt on everything you worried about. With my own personal experience being just more proof.

To be fair… Just because you got a bit unlucky doesn’t in any way prove the drop rate was decreased as some in these threads state.

At the moment every boss that I’ve killed has dropped at least 1 if not 2 pieces of loot. Until I start seeing bosses drop zero loot… no… the drop rates have not been reduced.

You did 6 dungeons and you think that’s proof. You spend more time on these forums than you do actually playing the game. You have no idea what your talking about and playing contrarian when they aren’t even paying you to do it is pathetic.

And yet your proof was nothing more than some speculative article written before the game was even released.

I’ve got the idea from my experience, yours is based on speculative hear-say. Yet you think you have any right to criticize me?

My experience is still a degree of “proof”. Is it enough to know the exact method of how gear is distributed? I wouldn’t say so.

Its enough proof to cast doubt on everything you’ve claimed tho.

luck isnt proof though

Yet people claiming their lack of luck is proof to say its changed.

Blizzard said they reduced the drop chance of gear.

Edit: I’m sorry for not reading your previous posts very much.

The guy they inteviewed who said that also said

Well, it went live.

Nope, mythic + and raids arnt out so we can’t be sure.

Gear isn’t more meaningful because gear isn’t really a choice.

Blizzard doesn’t want you to have an ‘illusion of choice’ anymore, its why everything has been streamlined so that ilvl matters the most, and after that you just want haste and whatever secondary stat your spec scales off of best.

Everything has been streamlined to the point where its not fun to build your class up, everything feels static and yeah your numbers on a meter go up, but you’re not really doing anything new or interesting with those numbers.

They told us the drop rate is reduced. We have no reason not to believe them, especially given all the people complaining about running dungeons and not getting gear.

You got lucky. Really lucky. There is a tendency to attribute dumb luck to skill and then blame others who were not lucky.

Mathematically speaking, someone could get a lot of gear in the short term, but it balances out in the long run. For you getting gear in every dungeon there were many more who got none.

Loot is overly boring tbh. it’s just an ilvl score. the higher the better.

We know that Mythic+ will give one less piece of gear and raids will give less gear.

The reason you don’t believe them is because the guy they quoted from blizzard said.

"So the exact quantities are still evolving (please don’t quote me 100% on this)”.

Like I said I ran with the same people and everyone got an average amount of the same amount of loot. It seems your concept of being lucky is ignoring the proof of an average amount of players getting on average the same amount of loot.

The people claiming blizzard reduced loot must be in fact “really unlucky”.

So would gear be more “meaningful” if there were way less ways to get it, like only from mythic raiding? How would you even gear up to raid if gear was not generally available?

You are the only one who makes the claim that everyone in every group can get a gear upgrade from every dungeon.

You’ve done 6 mythics total or just this week?
