Item Tuning Adjustments in 9.0.2

Good to know, thanks. I’ve been away for some time. How about essences? I’m asking out of concern for whether I stand a chance in PvP at the moment.

Still in the game. And that is a good thing. People whine about borrowed power being a thing, and then the moment when systems remain active past pre-patch they wonder why they are still working. Essences and azerite gear are no different than investing toward bis pieces.

Lol, devs are still stuck in BFA.

Rip Shadowlands.

*edit, I think they want us to thank them for their stellar communication. No stealth nerfs here!

This is a dumb change. You guys wasted time doing this change. Do you all have an insatiable spite against the player base?

Darn, my mythic geared mage and shaman will explodify (It’s a word now) the shadowlands maybe like 5% slower now.

Isn’t borrowed power / power creep necessary if new expansions are to expand upon gear?

It’s either they add abilities temporarily (each expansion) or they keep on adding and then they have to crunch in 2-3 expansions (MoP to WoD for a few classes or WoD to legion for the rest).

Tier has been out for almost a year champ

LOL “tuning adjustments” you mean: Just nerfing now, so as we level up to 60 and get weaker as we go, flashbacks of BFA will ensue as they double down yet again.

In order to change the height on the ceiling sometimes you have lower the floor.

The world is on fire, but we turned your bathroom light off.

In 8 days.

I’m having some serious BFA leveling flashback…

after we lost our artifacts and legendaries it was garbage to level…

Dull coral?

It feels really good to level currently. Unfortunately, until like 58, if you high end raided and M+, you wont replace your gear for most of the leveling process.

Almost everything is not a upgrade through bastion, mald, and like halfway through arden

Cool. Lame for everyone still trying to get a last ditch mount or something, but whatever.

If you’re gonna nerf people’s trinkets, maybe at least make Miniscule Abomination in a Jar functional to compensate? The proc currently doesn’t do anything.

With the nerf you will be replacing it, instead of just going into SL with an empty slot. They don’t have to lower the stats on AZ armor as you will naturally upgrade them over time. I hit 60 and my HoA and cloak are still holding pretty strong.

Didn’t read all the replies, but typical blizz.

Don’t make the new stuff better; make the old stuff worse.

Level 50 SL mobs are easily dispatched while wearing item level 50ish gear.
