You really need some more therapy. If WoW is causing you this much stress then quit. Why on Earth would you keep playing if it’s doing that to you?
My DBT training manual says if it’s effective and I want to be an epic raider to do opposite action!
Blizzard are just being lazy. They are copy and pasting on gear. I am pretty sure we all have 4 or 5 deeprock cloaks and deeprock gear. We also all have a number of suffused items ,but I am hoping some of those will catalyze.

Okay. I can’t tell if this post is troll or not. If you’re complaining that gearing in a video game is “traumatic” your life is way too easy and you should be thankful.
Dear god, I’m just … Wow. I don’t know what else to say. If you get a higher ilvl piece of something you already have why are not vendoring the lower one and why is it a big deal?
Is your life so easy you have to find crisis in something as simple as wow’s gearing? It’s pretty clear you are not a blue collar worker and if you somehow are, god help you.
Sounds like this game is not for you if sorting out a relatively simple loot system is causing you this much frustration. Try an easier game.
Yea i figured you were just some ahole trolling and making fun of people with actual mental health issues. Get a life.
Only if the drink is non-alcoholic, we don’t need dead participants.
Unless you’re really struggling on flightstones just upgrade the 408 vet and vendor the 411. You don’t spend anymore crests, the only exception is rings and trinkets where you’ll need two pieces upto an ilvl to remove the crest cost.
Having duplicate versions of the same of anything is pointless, just keep the one on the highest track and/or use flightstones to catch-up gear to your highest ilvl.
Min-maxing multiple specs across multiple content types has never been easy and often requires lots of gear. Soloing as a healer spec will always be slow but Shadow is the simplest its been (at least according to Spirest friends) and is easier to play then it has been in the past (and could possibly remove the need for an extra gear set). You also don’t need to be in the best gear possible to do most open-world content unless you’re 100% dead-set on soloing everything. I do open world stuff as Ret with w/e Holy Gear I have with any strength trinket and weapon I can get my hands on and have done just fine.
I was looking at all the currencies in my bag and I thought about vendoring every.freaking.thing. I don’t know what 80% of them are even for and they take up about that much of my bag space. I gave up completely on leveling gear. It’s so overwhelming and SO MUCH that I just can’t be bothered now. It’s kind of refreshing to not care, lol.

Shoulda got better training if a game rattles you. Decades of wasted time, feels bad man
That is my beef with the new upgrade system. With the various crests they could have just left it where we get the piece of gear and then use the crests to upgrade them. Locking it behind crests would have kept the “have to do the content level to get the upgrades” like the crafting power infusions are.

Im disabled and on a pension. These issues are real and im not trolling.
This game has actually been made a lot less accessible since BFA in many regards. It used to be a lot less stressful and way more fun to play organically without going to subcreation dot net planning gear upgrade paths simming with mr robot. Relying on multiple adons.
It really is traumatic to lose ones faculties and be overwhelmed and lose the capacity to keep up with ones own hobby.
Im totally not trolling.
And if you truly ask me the game isn’t better now that all these issues exist. It ties into balancing around meta and bis and telling ppl to just go eat dirt and play classic and saying stuff like "oh you’re terrible player bad for the game cuz you don’t use WA and sim all ur gear and talents "…
None of that is really fun and it shouldn’t be a point of an MMORPG…
I get it. For a unique type of individual it can be. And not everyone that loves playing like that enjoys shoving it in everyones face.
But hey I’m the monster for sharing something personal and how it relates to my years with the game and genre.
Yes. It is upsetting. And I feel like I did a great job communicating that. And how bad it is and how it effects the game and me.
There’s a LOT more than that thanks to item level inflation; over ten versions of every single Mythic+ piece of gear.

Disc and other healers are at an extreme disadvantage now without a crit/haste or haste/verse set. I like to try to keep it simple however it’s pretty much a given that if I want to be moderately efficient and not struggle sometimes with ridiculously long fights I gotta play shadow.
Honestly, it’s been way better in the past and I feel like the devs are out of touch with people who really enjoy healers and want to main spec a healer.
It shouldn’t be an expectation we switch specs and gear just to knock out some dailes or wqs.
Yet… none of that is true. Nothing means anything! Weeee
If you’re doing keys, raid and PvP, you’ve got two gear sets + some change. If you’re psychotic enough to keep a gear set for raid, key, quest, world PvP, instanced PvP, ???, ???, ???, ???, ???, ???, I don’t know what to say to you.
Shadow and discipline.
Like I keep saying blizz doesn’t respect healers so we need 4 sets minimum if you do it all as a healer and no way am I pvping in crithaste gear. Or raiding in crit haste gear.
You still need a difference of trinkets and a few slots. You aren’t wearing 4 completely different sets for both specs.
If you are, again, probably psychotic.

It’s the difference between being 1 or two shot in pvp or like 15k dps in pve (on a spec that can struggle to push 9k single target) or like 100k of extra shielding in a group (hello brakenhide).
Certain classes are literally this complex (discipline (priest))
They don’t need to be. They weren’t in bfa
While technically tru maybe plz stop calling me psychotic and dismissing me cuz of it.
Yeah… No.
