Nope. No Blizzard GM is going to tell you to go create a post on the official Blizzard forums requesting Blizzard change the policies on what GM’s can and cant help with.
Except they told me to do the exact thing? You’re just wrong on this.
Am I missing something. If someone could explain it would help. I thought tier pieces are pretty much universal and they change the set bonus when you change specs? Is this for Season of Discord or something like that? Clearly I am missing something there.
So why are you replying when you clearly don’t understand the situation? Tier pieces are separate items in SoD with you having to choose which set you want from the vendor. The pieces don’t “switch specs” when you do.
Also, there is a grace period when buying an item off the vendor. If you dont immediately equip it you can trade it back for the currency used. Its most likely a situation where you just have to pay better attention and make sure you are buying the right thing.
He knows. We know. Everybody knows. Your entire comment is just “Um, I don’t know what’s going on here but it sounds like OP is a liar and doesn’t know how the game works.” Frustrating and pointless comment.
Everyone responding in this forum just pointlessly putting down OP is so frustrating. Like, do you guys even PLAY other games? Assisting a player who has made a basic mistake like this is a no-brainer that most game companies do no questions asked. Instead, the Blizzard GMs just assume everyone is a bad actor and they deny every request like this for “game balance” reasons. The players with actual problems are screwed because of all the people who games the system. But guess what!? Most companies still grant the request anyways because they don’t want to lose players. You guys all siding with Blizzard here and telling OP to reap what he sows have just been beaten down and whipped by Blizzard so much that you think being harshly punished for a simple mistake is “the way it should be.”
Yes it’s OP’s fault, but I did the same thing and the result is devastating. 3 weeks of weeklies down the drain, and for all you people saying “oh just get the loot next week~” you’re assuming we’re all in 8/8 SE guilds with tier loot prioed to us or something. The guild I ran with went 5/8 last week and is currently 5/8 this week. Guess how much mage tier dropped? 2 pieces. 2 freaking pieces. Bosses only drop two tier each and none of the items I’ve sr’ed have ever dropped.
I’m sure plenty of lobotomites will ride on Blizzard and clown on my guild, my luck, or my mistakes, but you’re the ones who don’t get it. People put hard hours into this game hoping to get something out of it, and when that effort finally pays off but is taken away from them by a simple mistake that is easy to fix, the GMs should just fix it for them or they risk losing that player for good.
I for one am tired of all of SE’s bugs and all the loot related garbage that’s happened this phase (Balnazzar chest not spawning, dragon not landing, boat chest not spawning, bosses needing to be nerfed twice a week,) and while I wouldn’t leave WoW for messing up a Tier turnin on it’s own, that issue and all the other garbage this phase has compounded and I’m on the edge. I think if one more stupid issue happens I’ll take a long break from this game and going back to games that actually work and are friendly to players.
