Why should players lose the remaining 4 days this will be up this week(without nerf) just so someone can say they got it after they spent 10000s of gold buying old gems/enchants and farming old raids for tier sets.
Anyone who’s beating some of the towers are only doing it through exploits. GEAR shouldn’t matter, yet old gear from 6+ years ago is BiS somehow.
It should be strictly scaled to where gear shouldn’t matter and only the mechanics. The people who have beaten have stated what they were wearing and none it makes sense if this was good tuning in mind
I never said that. I’m a filthy casual. I got KSM weeks after it came out, and i haven’t done a single raid this expansion.
What i am saying is anyone who has completed the bear tower from what I’ve seen online, YouTube, these forums, have used old expansion gear to cheese the damage, old legendaries and other items that scale improperly from old expansion to beat it.
I’m not saying they’re cheating. I’m saying blizzard tuned this wrong. They’re smart for figuring this stuff out.
I did the mage tower back when it was current just an FYI
He’s not wrong. The meta is to get SoO heirlooms which have the most gems. Getting ilvl 50 also has skewed secondaries (allegedly) but it doesn’t hurt to farm up gear for gem slots. On top of that, you can farm trinkets. I’ve done so myself and my dps has increased dramatically. I can just imagine what the heirloom cheese is like.
What Blizz should have done is create standard gear and stats and balance it around that. Have it come down to skill 100%
