Those were not “true” legendaries. Those were more in line with legion legendaries where EVERYONE was going to get it, regardless. The evoker legendary takes it back to the more original legendaries from Vanilla or TBC. It’s a rare drop and only SOME will get it. I love this. Not everyone should or even deserves to have everything.
If that’s your opinion so be it, but so many people were asking for items to feel rare and legendary again amongst many other things. Thus they brought back items being rare drops from bosses, such as the cloak from sarkareth; and even a legendary that’s even more rare. Good. I like the idea of them bringing back things being rare and not EVERYONE should get them. Then they’re not legendary.
Yep, that’s how rare and legendary items were in the past and thats what many people including myself wanted back; items being actually rare. I thank blizzard every day for not making this legendary attainable by literally everyone. Sorry you’re extremely jealous because you think you deserve to have everything in a game. You don’t.
You’re so entitled it’s embarrassing. The funniest part is; your evoker is low ilvl, low I/O, doesn’t even have AoTC, so you dont even “deserve” it if it were an item you could attain by prestige lmao. But I guess that’s why you want it to be attainable by everyone no matter what? Just have a every Evoker running around with 457 ilvl legendaries. Then you’ll have people complaining from other classes that evoker’s have a massive advantage over their class because they can’t attain a weapon of that ilvl like evoker’s can. Blizzard fixes it by adding weapons of the same ilvl to compensate for other classes. Then wtf is the point of the legendary? What a joke.
I play WoW to hang out with friends who I don’t get to see much IRL anymore due to distance, I exclusively raid with them and I’ve done like three M+ total, again, exclusively for them.
Of course considering your odious attitude, I doubt you have many friends who care about you beyond the number you bring, so that’s probably a foreign concept to you.
And Jesus dude, learn to read, I know critical thought is probably tough for you considering your screeching of right wing rhetoric like “ENTITLED ENTITLED YOU DON’T DESERVE IT WAAAAAAHHHH”, but I’ve never at any point suggested making the legendary easier or more accessible or even brought up any point about “deserving” it, I personally am fine with how hard it is to obtain, I’ll get it eventually, my concern has been with locking story behind RNG and the experience of getting it.
Like I know you’ve tied your entire self worth to some pixels and can’t get it up unless you feel superior to randoms online, like the reason you decided to look up my IO (interesting that you are posting on an alt) but don’t assume everyone else feels the same way, it makes everyone embarrassed FOR you.
Touch grass, get some friends, maybe get a job or some hobbies outside playing WoW all day, people will respect you more. Hell, maybe they’ll even start to respect you IRL too.
I have a grip. I am not sitting on this post everyday. I vented my frustrations. It is people like you, and one other person in here. That come in to a post CLEARY about being salty about something. Start saying stuff like:
Thinking that your opinion is the right one. The point wasn’t I pay give me, it was more pointing out differences. I am sorry if you can only come in her with emotional based reactions over facts.
I disagree. If content is to be introduced in any game it should be achievable by most. I only say most because a PvPer wouldn’t aim for PvE related items and vis-versa.
Also calling people out as a form of argument, and thinking that wins your case. That is pathetic.
You seem to be forgetting that this isn’t Wrath or Cata gaming anymore and you can run the raid on no less than 4 difficulties now, so you wouldn’t need a dedicated group to help you. You wouldn’t even need a team if the items dropped on lfr. Not to mentioned the opportunities presented by cross-realm and cross-faction pugging that are now available. If there was a base version, everyone who wanted it could get it and gathering the rest of the required materials would be a simple matter of time and effort…not the graces of a team of other players working together.
The game and how we play it has dramatically changed since those days. Try to catch up.
The way it’s designed now eradicates the need of other players helping you, true, (beyond killing the boss, that is) but it also takes control of actually getting the legendary nearly completely out of the hands of the player. Which means, the aforementioned method of getting the legendary that you just described as completely terrible still has a better chance of actually getting the weapon than we have now, which is completely random.
I, for one, would rather put in the effort of making the legendary than hoping one day to win the lottery.
I mean what you seem to be forgetting, is that you don’t make the game or dictate the way it’s designed in any way for that matter.
Just because you think there’s some invisible precedent where everyone can get everything in two months or come crying to the forums about it doesn’t mean that Blizzard agree.
They also set a precedent for horrible borrowed power systems, watered down talent trees, and alt-unfriendly design since legion that went away with this expansion. Should we revert that as well, or just the stuff that you specifically don’t agree with?
Changes can be made, people can either adapt to them or slip into temper tantrums over items that they don’t even need, all under the guise of a quest–which I guarantee will become available to all at some point.
Look, I wish everyone good luck getting the lego. I’d love to have it myself. But having 10+ posts on this forum from each individual needing to air their grievances is a little sad. People are talking about touching grass in here when reacting to someone who thinks the legendary should be rare, and no one sees the irony.
Anyone who gets this bent out of shape over a weapon in a freaking video game that is a rare drop rate actually needs to be seeking out some grass to touch. 8 weeks of clears would make it a ~13% drop rate for the people that think they should have gotten it by now. Thirteen percent. For a legendary. There are items that are around that in raid right now and yet after 2 months there aren’t people losing their minds over them nearly as hard.
We are the only class that can even get a 457 weapon and there are infinitely less mains from other classes crying about that. Seems strange to me.
Odd way to basically back-handedly agree with what is essentially the main gripe for evoker mains. This quest (and the weapon along with it) should already be available for all.
Look, I’m not saying everyone should get a legendary. I’m saying that for a brand-new race/class that has no history of any legendary, and on its birthing expansion, and on an expansion that is centered so intrinsically upon them, it would be nice if Blizz showed some appreciation for those who have decided to play them by not making such a powerful and lore-heavy weapon with its own quests such a wildly random thing to get.
There are other legendary weapons in the game that are simple RNG drops, but (and correct me if I’m wrong here) I can’t think of any that are tied to quests. Much like the new class, this is a first, and much like the new class it feels very experimental, and I say that the experiment was a failure. This is not a fun or interesting way of getting what seems to essentially be a Legion-style legendary that we are likely expected to use for the rest of the expansion, it’s a frustrating question of wild luck.
They could at least make the quest item a possible vault option.
What a backhanded way of putting words in my mouth.
First of all, this statement is insane. No, it should not be available to all already lol.
My point was that if you want the quest, it will become available eventually.
The fact that you unapologetically just said “we deserve this weapon and quest and we deserve it NOW” is absurd. My four year old niece has more patience and less entitlement.
Entitled to suggest that WoW once again gave a class a legendary to enjoy for an expansion? You make it sound like it’s the first time. It worked pretty well in Legion.
It’s not entitlement, my dude, it’s a request to revert to a previously used, and successful method. The way things were set up in Legion was very smooth. I wouldn’t expect them to do it the same way, but having a guaranteed legendary with such a party-friendly effect would help offset the issues evoker has seen all expansion so far, and that we will undoubtedly see with the new spec.
Calling me a entitled and comparing me to a toddler has to be weakest argument I’ve seen in a while. It’s not even an argument, it’s trolling. If you have nothing more to say on the matter other than, “no, you don’t deserve this” don’t bother responding. It’s the same as saying some people can be special but others can’t and that’s just the way of things.
If your warrior was benched for months, it wasn’t because you were missing one or two items.
And no, it’s not a mandatory piece of gear. It will definitely make you stronger, but not having it will not disable your dragon. All the more reason that it should be more available to those who want it to better enjoy the story and for the relatively minor boost to personal performance. It should not be gate-keeped behind mount-level drop rates.
If you really think legendaries worked well in legion and people weren’t gimped without the right ones, you’re literally not worth the time responding anymore.
If it was between my hunter that was lucky with legendaries or my warrior that wasn’t, it was obvious who my guild took to mythic raid.
Do a little homework on what an absolute gongshow legion legendaries were before using them as an example of what worked, because you’re either trolling or clueless.
Where have I said I wanted to make a change? I ain’t saying change it now, give it to me. Do I want it, yes. Do I think it could’ve been handled better, yes. Do I think it should be easier to get than a drop to just start a quest chain that will prob take a couple week, 100%. Again. I’ve said it before. You see the post is about being salty about it. You have a choice to reply or not or to move on. This a hobby for me. I take hobbies half serious but if it is what it is so be it. I plan to keep grinding but I have every right to disagree with how it is handled. Coming into these posts, again knowing people are gonna be salty, and saying get over it. You aren’t adding to the conversation.
Then if you play WoW to just hang out with people, why does it matter that you can’t get the legendary? Is getting the legendary going to change anything at all about why you play the game?
Yikes. Bringing up politics and “right wing rhetoric” lmfao, going for personal attacks, etc. I must’ve hit the nail on the head to get you this angry. Might have some issues you need to work out irl. Ironically, given how upset you are over not getting the legendary it seems YOU’VE attached all of your self worth to some pixels. And you’re letting all of your insecurities and anger out over some pixels. Oh well, least I can say I got the legendary and you don’t. Some people just aren’t going to get it or deserve it. Sorry you’re one of them. <3
And you seem to be forgetting that a vast amount of players WANTED them to bring back elements from previous expansions. Such as making the legendary not attainable by EVERY. SINGLE. PERSON. At that point it’s not a legendary. Then if all of the Evoker’s have it, you’d have people from other classes whining that evoker’s have a massive unfair advantage because ALL of them, not just some, can get their hands on a weapon at ilvl 457.
The way it’s designed now is great, it’s a rare item that not everyone is going to get, just like a lot of the iconic legendaries of the past. Sorry you guys want to have everything at your fingertips and I thank blizzard so much for it being the way it is.
Yeah this is actually the most cringe thing I’ve seen on the forums in a while. I’m incredibly liberal and also agree that the legendary should be rare.
It’s hilarious that someone actually thought these ideas and perspectives were mutually inclusive, they’re definitely on the giga-tilt to say something like that.
Nah man, I think you were right when you said that we’re fundamentally seeing things differently. What I see in this thread is still consistent with my original interpretation, but perhaps becoming less precisely worded or less tempered due to the frustration of not being heard or understood.
