How does a dungeon item being BiS until AQ40 not make it more powerful than people who just say, “don’t bother”? Especially since the, “alternatives” are deep in the dungeons and still low drop rates.
The issue with SGC is that even with a tiny drop rate, it’s an easy farm that is very fast - but with this change it hurts them.
There’s about 10 alternatives that are 1% less DPS.
This is Classic WoW. This isn’t Mythic raiding, 1% DPS is next to nothing.
What if what if what if
Entire arguments based on hypothetical hyperbole that pretty much will never actually happen
God forbid it takes longer than a single day to achieve every goal you have on every single alt
Get over yourself
Try being a minority faction on a pvp server, those instances are a god send when you’re always outnumbered during peak times.
assuming you were for sure getting it on the 1000th run, it would take you over a month of doing mara 30x every day to get the dagger.
GJ Blizz?
When the endgame is character progression, 1% DPS is a lot.
Oh, so an item thats designed to be rare is going to actually be rare, oh how terrible that you cant brute force your way into getting every piece of gear your heart desires in a SINGLE DAY
So the nerf every aspect of the game, then suddenly make SGC harder to get…
why is this okay?
You know we’re not supposed to be able to clear raids without virtually anyone dying right?
Also… uh, no? Pre-BiS takes time to get, and SGC can take a very long time to get. There are plenty of raid geared Warriors still farming it.
Do you know what happens to 30 second fights when every warrior in the raid does 1% less DPS?
The fight lasts 30 seconds.
Why is it such a big deal that you have to spread out your farming instead of doing it all in a single day?
Wtf do you even do with the rest of your tonce you actually get that one item
Some people work full time and have real world responsibilities. Some can only farm on specific days, and try to make the gold they might need the rest of the week on that one day.
Also, why does it matter if they want to do it in one sitting or several? Are you trying to tell other players how they should and should not play?
Ok? And, lots of things take time to get, by design
God forbid you take a little longer to get something thats supposed to be difficult to obtain instead of cheesing it in a single day
You’d have to be insanely lucky to get SGC in a single day.
This change is just unnecessary and hurts players, while not really hurting bots. That’s not a good thing.
Blizzard should just remove the weekly lockout on raids
I should be able to spam bwl over and over all day every day until my entire raid team is full bis
Who is blizzard to tell me how to play, i cant play every week, i should be able to farm full bis in one week so that im ready for the next patch RIGHT NOW
A ret pally in my guild farmed gold for his HoR (arcane crystals) doing stock runs endlessly. Plus he always gave guildees free runs. On a high pop server with high competition for nodes in the world, as terrible as that is (2g a run pp) it was the best/most reliable, honest, totally legal way to earn gold.
A friend of mine has been trying to help me and another guildy level toons through SM with carries and took two days off work to do so, yesterday and today. Both days were wasted, the first because Blizzard didn’t even announce the change.
My main is a holy pally and my only option, like my ret guildy, is doing stock carries, earning maybe 40g an hour, where a mage can earn double that in a single ZG carry.
Meanwhile the cheats and botters will easily overcome this system and it will ONLY effect real players. The only thing it does, is earn Blizz money for the extra subs it’ll generate.
Raids are different than instances/dungeons. Though, with this change, I’m expecting a lot of people upset they can’t raid because of it.
A month while being able to do nothing else in dungeons or raids the entire month. But is our subscription any less given that we are now being dictated to how much we are allowed to play the game? #nochanges my ugly rear end.
How is it different?
Just because blizzard put on arbitrary lockout to limit how quickly it can be farmed?
1 a week vs 30 a day, seems pretty generous really in comparison
You can’t reset raids the same way you can dungeons by design. That’s how they’re different.
Also, BWL takes a lot longer to run than an arena run in BRD. Arena runs are like 5-10 minutes. I guarantee you that Blizzard had zero idea the impact this change would have, especially on things they didn’t actually intend.
If they want to make Classic+ - which is against what they said when they first launched Classic - they need to announce their intentions. Also, why stop here? Why not remove MCP to prevent Druids from DPSing? Why not force classes to wear their appropriate armour class? Why not fix the HS bug that is accurate to vanilla for Warriors? Why not fix ghetto hearthing?
If Blizzard is going to make arbitrary, poorly thought out changes, are you going to ever speak out against them?
