Have you tried PVP? Conquest gear is Champion track.
I have dbm and a few others. Don’t have weakauras but I will get it. I had it long ago but I’ve been doing only pvp so my add-ons are light. I will spend some time looking at vids and mechanics and loading up all the good add-ons again. Ty.
I’ve been getting gear on my alts from World Bosses, The Theater, the weeklies, the Anniversary weeklies, time walking…(which is way easier than I imagined).
But is any of that stuff better than conquest? I’m 638 pvp ilvl. All the stats from drops ive seen are significantly lower than my current stuff.
It’s not difficult.
Sorry you’re having a bad time, but it seems you just don’t want to invest into your time in game.
This game has always been this way. Do quests to get gear, do world content to get gear, weeklys, rep, dungeons, raids ETC.
If anything, it’s significantly easier to get gear. Upgrading is where you need to grind a bit.
Weeklys in dornogal give caches for gear. Just do w/e they ask. Then do world quests for loot to get whatever you may need to replace. World bosses may not give you loot, but it will give you a vault slot for a chance at better gear. Do heroics. May take you a few hours, may take a few days.
Sorry you feel this way, but there is plenty to do solo, and plenty to do in groups.
Oh, not at all! I was just saying that it’s not impossible to get some gear from other sources.
I have a feeling that ones problem with delves is that you cannot really just rush through them. Anyway, you only really need to do two to get a single gear, not 8. Also, using a key guarantees a champion drop at level 8. Personally, i rather do 8 t8 delves than trying to find a good team to do 8 +5-6 mythics. Time wise it is faster and one would have to be bad to really fail. Where mythic, if someone leaves, good luck finding someone to spend time on a broken key.
I guess this is where my disconnect is coming from. It’s not about doing the work I am 638 pvp ilvl…I’ll do the stuff I don’t mind. But literally everything is giving me lower rated stuff than what I currently have. I learned about bountiful delves this morning so that’s great but in my standard Playstyle of just doing everything that comes up…I’m not getting pve gear that’s an upgrade from what I have.
If you hate Delves, you have Heroics and the AH.
There are casual mythic communities you can join. They’re not guilds so youre still solo. They’ll usually help you to run your keys or you can join others in their keys.
Heroics drop nothing of upgrade value to me. There is no reason to even be in them. The stones that come from them are even useless to me cause I got that achievement where they don’t apply anymore.
Don’t forget to keep upgrading your gear. I think there’s even addons that tell you what priority to upgrade if you want to get very specific.
You can upgrade even the trashiest gear to around 600 ilevel I think. Veteran and up should go up to 610-619 I think but been a minute.
You can also get gear with your preferred stats crafted for various slots via guildies, alts, or people in trade for a tip up to perfect craft quality. This will get you a guaranteed 619 item with good stats and embellishments for that slot. You do this at the Work Order station in the city.
Embellishments like in Dragonflight if you played that help boost your damage a little bit more so it might be worth trying to get. Also you’ll want your complete 4 piece set if you don’t have it for Warrior yet.
I have two of them so far. Was trying to wait cause I used them on pvp pieces. There is just…ahhh. it’s a lot. Lmao. I appreciate it. I’ll get there evetually.
I mean you can convert anything Veteran and up to a piece of your 4 piece, but people at the moment likely require the full set. You do this at the Catalyst station in Dornagol.
And yeah as the poster below me said I believe pvp and pve in this game are pretty different.
Yup. That is the disconnect. Pvp ilvl does not mean anything in pve. If you want pve ilvl you have to do pve activities. No way around that.
Also if I change my pvp pieces to tier the stats suck. Like it gives me haste instead of mastery or vers instead of crit. I guess that works different for pve? I don’t know anymore. Lol. I need a few minutes to make sense of this I guess I’m kinda dumb.
I’d suggest getting new pieces for pve only and don’t change that as it seems like you have a good strong pvp set. Try to get champion for the 4 piece slots if you can, but veteran is good enough to start.
Yea exactly so I’m like…uuuuhhhg. so do I need to basically decrease my dps by wearing bad gear till I can upgrade it? Basically start over?
Conquest gives champion gear with a bonus item after a short amount of conquest collected, and bloody tokens allows you to buy veteran gear. I’m not saying to do that, I’m just saying you can also do that.
Grin and bear it like me and M+
By your gear it looks like you’ve out grown them except for a trinket.
Regular LFR is a waste of time except for collecting the raid buff items. BRD LFR is okay though because of the keys. If you do a full run, you can buy ANY item you want. If you’re short keys, it means you joined a BRD in progress.
As harsh as this sounds, that’s kind of a good thing when gear is as low as yours. Hopefully you’ve saved those sockets for when you get better gear.
You can get your own key from the NPC, but I feel that fury warrior pain. Looking at your gear and spec, I wouldn’t want to group with you either. Head over to icyveins and grab a spec from them. Don’t waste gold on your current gear, but check out the enchants you should be using too.
Set your loot spec to arms instead of “current specialization.” This is a newb trap that gets a lot of people, even experienced players who just forget to fix it at the wrong time.
Actually you need only do 2. While it might not be the slot you want, with your gear anything will be a substantial upgrade. On top of that, using a key at the end will net you a piece of champion level gear. Throw on a prot spec, it is really silly how easy it is.
Big oof there.
Hit up all the anniversary stuff going on in Tanaris. You really should have better gear than you do currently just from that.
Good luck!
