Seeing a lot of R1s and top ladder players wearing “fortune crafted” gear. Seems like it is required to grind raids or M+ dungeons to acquire these. Not to mention the people who got their 4set a week early thanks to grinding the raid and using the upgrade kits.
Seems a little wacky that in 2025 you need to grind PvE to have an advantage in PVP…anyone else think this is cringe?
Of course, if you want it, you can also get the required Gilded crests from Delves, too - no M+ or Raiding (or Duelist) required.
The first three Bountiful Tier 11s you do each week drop 7 Gilded crests; also, I think the Map Delves at Tier 11 award Gilded crests, too (I recall getting 10 of them from a run - not sure if this is repeatable, though).
Everybody could have had their 4-set early if they really wanted it. People literally just ran LFR for a piece and then upgraded it.
