Please don’t lock things necessary for PVP (legendaries) behind content like Torghast. The PVP community is tired of being force fed PVE content that requires a few hours a week to do, every week, complimented by even worse systems like Essences, Azerite, M+ chests, cloak upgrading, etc… We just want to be able to queue up arenas or RBGs and not have to participate in content we have no desire to do just to be competitive in the content we enjoy playing.
So if you’re going to have crossover between Torghast rewards and PVP, make them available through PVP as well. The least you can do since you’ve totally shafted the PVP community in BFA.
That goes both ways, though. While I dabble in both PvE and PvP (so it doesn’t bother me too much), there’s plenty of PvE-exclusive folks who’d rather not get stomped in PvP just to get their BiS.
Memory of Lucid Dreams - PVE content
Unbound Force - PVE Content
Visions of Perfection - PVE Content
Dying Breath - PVE Content
Essence of the Focusing Iris - PVE Content
Condensed Life Force - PVE Content
And those are just the DPS ones. Then there is the myriad of healer ones locked behind that too. You have no idea how hard PVP got shafted this expansion. You’re crying about Conflict and Strife and what, Blood of the Enemy? 1600 in arena is like… literally free.
You can get that essence in a matter of like 3 hours TOTAL. Every other essence required more than that. Furthermore PVE has the BIS items for pretty much every spec in the game for arena so you’re constantly pressured into raiding and doing m+ to remain competitive throughout the season.
Raden Weapon for DH/Monk
Cut of Death - Any 2h Melee
Maut Staff - Feral/Guardian
Obsidian Claw - RMX comps and all healers
Vita Trinket - Warlocks, Spriest
The list can go on for ages…
I think at least they will give you a box based on what you’re best at. ie if you’re 2400 you’d get a 475 cache even if you did an m11 only for the week. So they combined them. However, 2400 is SIGNIFICANTLY harder than any 15 so… m+ is still mandatory for 99% of the PVP community.
IDK I didn’t PVP in other MMOs nor know them well now. Why would that be an issue? I don’t get why you’re hellbent on wanting to let PVPers have PVP options to play in PVP.
You also shouldn’t be able to get the best possible gear equivalent to PVE gear in terms of ilvl/stats from just killing other players. That gear should be locked behind PVE challenging content like M+ and raiding. There’s no challenge in killing other players, there is in scaling pve content that can be modified to make it hard.
