Nazjatar quest reward weapons

…something that may entice old players to return for the new patch and actually add to the numbers of active players.

Nope.

Changing the story. It was 415 in the PTR, everyone knew it. People whined and complained on the forums and it got nerfed. Don’t pretend like it was done out of integrity for the game. And 415 is not top tier. It well soon be middle of the pack and at THAT point, they will probably have to buff it anyways. This is catering to those crybabies.

This is a valid complaint. Would have been nice to get a new skin so it would have been useful one way or another for everyone.

Sure, but 370? Shouldn’t it be like the emissary cache 395?

It’s a quest for saying “hi.”

So was the expansion intro. What’s your point?

Ok, then why have quest rewards at all?

You do understand that the “T” in that stands for TEST right? This is where they work out these kind of issues. I am sure people complain about giving our free 415 ilvl weapon for standing around watching an introduction quest.

Because it was stupid to do so… You are talking about giving out weapons the caliber of the normal raid that isn’t even out yet. And doing so FIVE minutes into the new content.

I just don’t understand why we should get a 395 weapon for saying “hi.” At least for the emissary you have to complete 4 WQ and have a comparable ilevel.

The weapon is fine. A new appearance in my collection and gold in my pocket. Some of my alts will benefit from the higher ilevel though.

You mean playing a matching game? Oh wow, so difficult, much blood and sweat. if we’re going to quibble over difficulty, you don’t earn most of the gear in this game.

I would have liked it to be useful. Raids haven’t dropped anything for me because we dont kill those bosses anymore.

370 isnt useful. At all.

imagine thinking you deserve mythic level raid gear for doing a simple quest chain. this is what happened to the playerbase after giving out loot for free to every lfr joe.

You’re leaving out the part where you have to have a comparable ilevel. My fresh 120 with 330 ilevel isn’t getting a 395 weapon from the emissary. She’ll get a 340.

I don’t care what the specific Ilvl is. Don’t attribute others points to me on this one. The alternative to what YOU think is an overpowered reward is not a completely irrelevant one. One extreme to the other.

But I would like you to explain why they need to add a 415 weapon on the pTr for testing. Testing WHAT? Whether or not the item will go into your bags at 415? Gear is not scarce there anyways.

Be honest, you know they changed it because of the massive complaints last week. cmon now.:grin:

Deserve’s got nothing to do with it, but you’re pushing back on even 395 which makes no sense because that’s below LFR.

Imagine getting your panties in a twist over what gear strangers get.

Then people can do LFR. I don’t see the problem.

People will do LFR. But why even award a weapon if it’s not useful at all?

This is a pretty silly comment. You don’t need raid level gear from a quest. It’s a quest, not a raid.

Is 370 a bit low? Sure. But no one should be getting raid level gear from quests. I shouldn’t have been 401 ilevel months ago when I don’t raid.

Quests should reward appropriate ilevel for the appropriate type of content. An intro quest doesn’t need to be current mythic level raid gear.

A “middle of the pack” weapon is supposed to entice old players to come back to the game? Are you serious? :joy:
