Why am I getting so many f’ing trinkets? I’m leveling up my character and I rarely get any upgrades because the only drop I’m finding in dungeons are trinkets.
Did trinkets go from the least common to most common drop now?
If I had image privileges I’d post my bag right now. I have 5 different trinkets, I would have more if I didn’t sell the duplicates.
You would have nothing to worry about because any gear below the capped level is near useless.
My only guess why you would get so many trinkets is because they’re literally the “funnest” gear slot to have.
But y’know… fun is subjective.
I know it’s useless later but it isn’t useless when you’re leveling your character in solo content. I’d really like to get my stam and secondaries up because my DPS is extremely fragile.
Are you using heirlooms? There are ways to upgrade them to reinforce your solo journeys.
Also, if your DPS is fragile… try a different spec. I heard Unholy is ballin’
Only 5, you’re just getting started. Especially if you delve.
I don’t have my heirlooms for Leather this high. We’re talking 70s here, I’m playing a boomie. It’s a miserable experience to say the least. But it had to be my DPS choice since my actual main spec is Resto. So I figured an int based DPS would make more sense since I’d be more likely to get a weapon for both specs I swap between.
I can’t believe the amount of times I’ve made it to top level still wearing green drops from Intro Island.
My Survival Hunter was able to kill rare monsters with ilvl 470~, my boomie with ilvl 530 dies in a matter of seconds. lmao.
RNG be RNGin’, for sure.
I’ve run almost 50 keys this season capable of dropping Hero track mail shoulders, and still haven’t seen a single one drop, even with the vast majority of those runs including at least one other mail character who could trade me.
That’s freaking insane. So you’ll have to forgive me I’m coming off mostly from SL and DF. This trinket thing goes into M+???
I do love Trinkets. They are a fun drop. But too many becomes annoying.
What’s annoying is I get trinkets, but never the one I want!
So there’s a quest at max level, Kill 4 LFR raid bosses or M+ bosses, it gives you 3 coins the first time, one there after. 3 coins buys your choice of many heroic level pieces, including your bis trinkets. So it won’t be a problem for long.
It can vary a lot from season to season depending on loot tables. This season, for example, is kind of overloaded on rings and trinkets (and mostly bad trinkets, at that).
(If you’re unaware, since DF Blizzard has been doing seasonal M+ rotations where they use a mix of current expac dungeons alongside a selection of past expac dungeons instead of the full range of current expac dungeons. This season includes Motherlode and Mechagon Workshop from BFA, and Theater of Pain from SL).
There are 7 rings on this M+ season’s loot table, for example, but only 2 necks, because Blizzard just… basically doesn’t curate their seasonal dungeon loot tables at all except to re-itemize gear that’s old enough to have been in a different loot paradigm, like Cataclysm rings having Primary stat on them.
This is then exacerbated by the Great Vault being M+'s only source of Myth track items, of which you get 3 random options from the M+ loot table each week, and can only select 1. My Vaults this season have been very heavy on bad rings and trinkets, sadly for me.
The weirdest part is that mail shoulders aren’t even particularly rare this season. Half the dungeons in the rotation have them, which is pretty standard. I’ve just personally had absolutely insane bad luck with them not dropping at all for me, that I’m now 3k rating and 676 item level, and still wearing Champion shoulders.
