Obligatory "please change Felstriker/Ironfoe being bis" post

UBRS, I consider it a dungeon

You can be technical if you want but it doesn’t change anything that I said

I actually agree that loot from MC-20 should be better in pretty much every regard compared to a dungeon drop.

I genuinely don’t understand what you’re saying.

Putting bis weapons on final bosses has ALWAYS been the trend in vanilla/classic, and it’s exactly what I’m advocating for. You’re the one wanting it to be more like retail.

Do you even know what is making Felstriker better than Molten Perd Blade right now? Seriously. Have you even looked at either weapon yet? Do you know where they even drop? Or do you just want to sperg out?

My gnome warrior from 2019 never got HoJ, Ironfoe, Felstriker, or SGC, and is neutral with all PvP reps.

Still wearing AQ and Naxx gear.

You guys realize gear is damn near meaningless when world buffs exist, right? Your weapon is basically a rounding error compared to a full set of buffs.

There’s more reasons to play this game than to wear shiny end game gear.

You mean like, farming extremely rare chase items?

Parsing, socializing, completionism, experimentation, PvP, etc.

SoD is experimentation especially. Which is difficult to do when they’re getting rid of reasons to do the new end game content.

Your weapon is basically a rounding error compared to world buffs. You can parse 99’s without a Felstriker.

And Felstriker isn’t even good in PvP. Something with more top end will burst harder than a proc that guarantees 3 auto attacks crit.

Are you genuinely okay with the fact that I got my bis weapon before the raid was available?

Yeah, I think it’s pretty cool that these super rare items (Ironfoe & Felstriker) actually have a niche in SoD.

I got an Ironfoe on my Orc w/o trying for it in SoM… never even used it because no way for Horde to get mace skill.

The guy wants retail and he doesn’t know it

Then we have to agree to disagree. I like classic wow design, where the best weapons drop from the final bosses of raids.

I hate to break it to you, but Felstriker is the best off hand weapon in the game for PvP specifically. Better than Naxx off hands.

Exactly zero people with access to Naxx gear on Era use Felstriker in PvP.

Dagger rogues aren’t people?

I wasn’t suggesting Felstriker is powerful. I’m telling you it is.

You need to play with better players.

Still waiting for you to explain how.
But you won’t.
Because you didn’t even read my original post.

Having BIS throughout tiers IS Vanilla, there is no refuting this

Kingsfall drops off of Kel’thuzad.

Same with Gressil.

And before AQ/Nax, Perd’s blade was the best dagger. Which is exactly what I’m advocating for.

You’re the one that’s happy the game is LESS like vanilla now. Dungeon weapons have never been bis, with the exception of crowd pummeler for feral druids.

This was me talking about main hand daggers

and this was me talking about off hand daggers. You can tell, because I literally said “off hand weapon”

Since you clearly don’t play much classic, allow me to explain:

Rogues can have a main hand AND off hand weapon.

So, you’re saying Perdition’s Blade will remain the best main hand weapon in MC, while the extremely rare dungeon drop will be slightly better than a 2nd MC weapon… sounds pretty balanced to me.

… Wrong.

Perdition’s Blade isn’t even close to the best main hand, OR off hand in SoD. That’s the problem

You need to spend more time listening, and less time attacking.
