Overall difficulty

Hello community, blizzard,

here we are, some weeks after expansion launch,
I believe the following changes are long overdue and would improve the game and sentiment (and retention) of playerbase:

  • M0+ should drop Champion gear
  • M6+ should drop Hero gear
  • remove the Challenger Peril affix
  • delves10+ should drop Hero gear without keys
  • delves11 should unlock Mtrack vault
  • increase dungeons timers by 5 minutes
  • reduce GB’s trash damage by 10%
  • M9 should unlock Mtrack vault
  • increase drop of reagents for all professions by 60%

trust, sentiment of the playerbase would increase significantly.

I think players need to get better, or accept theres levels they cannot/will not complete.

Not everything needs to be achievable by everyone.

Why not let LFR drop Mythic raid loot in this case

I disagree, they are paying to play the game, they should not be gatekept access from it.
Besides this is MMORPG, if something is too hard, you overcome with ilvl, that’s the concept.

I think this is a bit extreme, but I would move myth back to 8 or 9 for vault and nerf some of the more painful bosses and trash. Not sure how City of Threads 3rd boss has escaped the nerf bat.

An untimed piece of content that is soloable should absolutely not be rewarding myth track vault, lol.

They aren’t “gatekept” from anyone, lol. They have the same opportunity to do the content as everyone else.

I think you’re both right.

EVERYONE should have access. Unfortunately some of us aren’t good enough to do the big boy stuff and need to learn to live with that. I’m not in the top percentile for skill and talent, why should those that are have zero challenges to them. M+ seems like that’s the place, no?

Because they also need to progress their characters and maybe maximum ilvl will help them to overcome some challenges they are facing.

right now the cap on gear is 619.

I can accomplish this without even entering a mythic.

I don’t know if I agree with making mythics easier so more folks can gain access when gear alternatives exist all over.

There still needs to be a place where those insane top performers can go and push some more.

Also, it’s highly possible I am in the wrong thread.

619 is not the cap by a long shot. If you do heroic raid you get gilded Crest by the end which can help you upgrade hero gear to Max. Plus you pretty much can get an upgrade once per week by upgrading runed crests to gilded after passing 619 item level. The cap for those who do not do Mythic Plus or Mythic raid will be 626, a bit higher if you start tossing in crafted gear.

619 is only the cap for people who only do one delve per week (and don’t get a great vault slot or any maps) and doesn’t raid anything above normal.

Are you just saying random stuff, or what?

No. My random stuff is way better than that.

No one is stopping them from accessing it. Their lack of skill, which is entirely on them, stops them from completing said content.

Thats why theres different difficulties. To challenge folks of all different skill levels.

Why do they nerf mythic raid, what stops remaining mythic teams (aside 1st three) to gain that lack of skill?

1 Like

They nerf it because they don’t want it fall over quickly in the RWF, but the RWF difficulty isn’t reasonable for most CE guilds.

So the non-professional WoW players can complete it.

You’ll notice they dont drop Mythic down to Heroic levels and keep the Mythic rewards

Right, so now answer this question please, so they realize that 3 mythic teams are not their playerbase, right?
Now take this example and compare number of completion and who can obtain maximum ilvl gear.

No one is stopping these people from doing content but themselves.

And there are already ways to move through the ladders without giving away Mythic gear.

Every pool of players who can perform at higher levels is going to be smaller. That’s how higher levels of anything work.

Do you demand that you make the same amount of money as NBA players for your pick-up game of basketball with some friends? No? Didn’t think so.

Another bad take from Eau. Moving on.

Look, I agree with you that it wouldn’t be reasonable to want mythic track from a 2 or something, but I also don’t think it’s unreasonable to either want the mythic track from an 8 or 9 vault, or keep it at 10 but have it closer to a DF S2 or S3 20, because right now it’s more like a 24 lol.
