Less Soul Ash required please

Hi,

About Soul Ash, I wanted to play some alt and craft some legendary for my other spec but the cost of soul ash is way too high. I dont like doing Thorgast at all, not because its difficult, its not. It just take me time away from what I really enjoy from the game, doing arena, mythic and raid.

Please, once you crafted a legendary item, reduce the cost for other part and even more, on other toon too!

thank you

There should just be a catch-up mechanic like with most everything else.

I’m waiting for the inevitable “bonus soul ash month” or something.

I don’t think the Soul Ash cost is too high. However the base “vessel” items for a Rank 3 or Rank 4 seem pretty stiff–guess that’s just start-of-expansion price trends and that they’ll come down over time but that seems a much higher barrier than getting 1250 Soul Ash in a couple of hours over 2 weeks for a Rank 1 on an alt.

I do wish that they would not force an alt to progress through each layer one at a time… if I gear an alt before entering Torghast I should be able to jump right to Layer-N if my item level is sufficient for that layer. I guess they perceive that if I finish all my alts in 1/8th the time with such a change that’s a threat to revenues, so probably not going to happen. :frowning:

Isn’t it lovely. I’m a solo player admittedly but I can do a run solo no biggies. I’m slow and careful so it works. But at the end I get 150 or so ash, I persevered cause I really did want to craft a legendary. So after the big collect for the Crafter I now have to go back and do it again cause he needed all I got for himself. Not what I call fun. I was never a farmer in WoW and now I feel forced to farm. YUCK!!

I don’t understand why they can’t have a soul ash cap in the same way they handle conquest points. Just let me play 20 hours in a day so I can play the game instead of waiting a month because I decided to craft the wrong legendary or I took a week off.

Right now you can craft a rank 1 legendary after your first full torghast clear on an alt (bolvars first quest included)

Any alt will be fine with a rank 1 for some time.

Its not fun to do the same thing over and over. Going again level 1 to lvl 8 is killing me.

Torghast sucks, but there is also 1 or 2 wow tokens worth of gold spent on the legendary as a real 1-2 gut punch.

What on earth are you talking about? That first 1,250 counts towards a quest to make your first legendary, which you get to keep. If you only want one and never want to upgrade it, you never have to set foot in Torghast again.

Time-gating is very frustrating to those with 20 hr out of 24 hr to play every day. On the other hand it keeps those with only a few hours a week to be able to play from falling behind and being excluded from content because they couldn’t keep up (simply because they don’t have 20 hr/day to play).

I know it sucks for people with time on their hands, but Blizzard made a decision that retains them the most subscriptions and helps their profit margins most… seems unlikely to change as it’s well-justified (despite it’s unpopularity among a vocal minority).

Could be worse, it could be 35 ash at layer 8.

Or we could do like D3 and disenchant a useless legendary for like 1,000

Mission tables. :+1:

Doing 2 wings a week is farming?

If that’s your qualification for farming how do you do anything within the game and say you’re not into farming?

I’m going to have research I guess. I must be missing something.

Between Torghast and soul ash missions I’m getting about 1300 soul ash per week. It doesn’t seem too bad.

I think the costs are reasonable as they stand right now, but I do think it would have been nice for the intro quest for the runecarver to give you the base 190 item and Soul Ash for it. Many of us are already wearing 225 or 235, and/or have multiple legendaries. I don’t think it would have broken the bank to let alts get the rank 1 version for a single legendary once.

They really need to make the layer unlocks account wide.

LITERALLY NO ONE wants to do 9 torghast runs the first week their alt hits 60, like wth…

hahah funny rogue…

here’s 50 soul ash for you.

This issue with alts, IMO, is unlocking all 8 levels again. That sucks big time
