Wouldn’t a world in which one faction dominates the raiding scene, Mythic+ won’t provide a gap closer, and Faction Changes can be bought, have some pretty obvious outcomes by Feb 1. 2021?

Well that’s my point. If the whole game hinges on raiding, and Mythic won’t make up for not-raiding, then the Horde is going to start picking up a good deal of frustrated Alliance players - assuming they don’t quit.
I am.

What was hard about that post?
Except it wont.
It will. 3il below heroic for end of dungeon clears, but still mythic loot from end of week chest. End of week chest was actually buffed so you will get Mythic geared faster.

My understanding was that the gear is much lower than it had been previously, and lower then Raid gear. Maybe I’ve got that wrong.
Guess he doesn’t realize that already happened regardless?
The Alliance is the casual faction and has been for years.

It was badly composed and had no cohesive structure to understand your point.
But I see what you are trying to say. I disagree, because all evidence has been to the contrary prior to M+ existing, and faction “imbalance” whatever that fantasy is, is proven to be 100% player driven and not by developer decisions. Players believe a rumor and it spreads like wildfire. The community chastises flavor of the month, while also jumping into it like the lemmings they truly are.
This isn’t true at all. M+ still provides mythic raiding ilvl gear weekly, making it still a viable end game path.
So end game is still M+, Raid, or Die
but only the box of dissapointment has mythic level gear… M+ itself is below heroic.
except theres zero reason to run more than 1 a week now.
youll have your typical 2 nights of raiding and then only one night of m+.
thats only 3 “busy” days out of 7 in a week. kinda sad.
Yeah it’s not raid or die. It’s get an incredibly minor nerf to short term gains which gives raiding some incentive while getting more power with being able to pick your mythic raid loot from the vault.
It’s actually a net gain but people see the numbers and just lose their mind and objectivity.

This isn’t true. The weekly box provides additional choices for you to pick from based on how many M+s you run.
Max is 3 choices for 10 M+s

And if you raid on top of mythic + you can get 5-6 choices depending on how many bosses you kill in the week.
I believe this is false. For maximum slots and opportunities at choosing gear 10 is the number of dungeons you want to run a week.
thats already better. but it’s still only one night of m+
Y’all know it sucks.
