So far today I did 14 runs of Plaguefall to get the reflective shield legendary. It’s basically a must have for disc priests that want to do arena, and so even if you don’t enjoy pve whatsoever like myself, you still have to do this. Some people are getting it on their first run, and I talked to someone today that is 80 runs in and still hasn’t had it dropped.
Why is this a thing?
Why are we forcing pvp oriented players to participate in this snoozefest that revolves around luck? Can’t we at least get some tokens or something so that after 10 runs we can just buy the item we want? Or better yet, novel idea, how about let pvp players do pvp to get their gear? Am I crazy?

If you ran it on M+, you’d get it first try.
I ran it on M+, didn’t drop.
its the same for pve players. PVP gear is generally much easier to obtain than similar level pve gear.
in the very least, considering conquest gear+upgrade is something u get IN ADDITION to your pve weekly chest, as a pve player im missing out alot by not playing pvp which is just dumb
the same can be said for pve trinkets that are still 1 shotting in pvp.
i wish they would bring resilience back to completely separate pvp and pve gear.
they made some lame attempt with the pvp trinket set, not nearly enough, if i can just 1 shot with a pve trinket

I agree its lame, and it also makes a lot of people ditch dungeon runs early. They should just make it a 100% drop, or let you buy the best PvP legendaries from the PvP vendor.
Imagine if things were reversed, and PVE players had to do arena all day to get all their items to ilvl 213 and would often waste entire days getting nothing, and PVE would only offer you 1 item every 1-3 weeks at most. That’s what it’s like from the pvp side of the game.

I’ve been talking about this for years. The reason pvp is like this currently is because of whining from the pve community back in the days of resilience that they’re so squishy in pvp when that’s solved in a day or two of grinding out bgs for a full honor set. The pve community has ruined and still is even further ruining the pvp community because blizzard doesn’t listen to us.
Edit: I say this as someone who had all classes besides a priest at max lvl in cataclysm (last time we had resilience) and got them all geared for pvp and just did weekly caps for conquest gear. I could even feel competitive with people who had a bit of an edge over me with more conquest gear.
The good ole days when all you had to do was grind BG’s and never even had to step foot in a new expansion. I didn’t do a single ounce of PvE like all the way up to WoD.
I think mythic+ changed the game entirely. There’s times when running mythics is more enjoyable than doing PvP

The fact that pvp gear can only be upgraded to 184 is an absolute meme.

I guess the 90% of disc priests in the top 100 must not know what they’re doing then.
? I was made to understand that legendary memories are 100% drop rate…was i misinformed?
I got 3 in one clear of normal raid 10/10 bosses.
I got my Torg legendary on the first run, so maybe that’s what people are referring to. I can guarantee without a doubt that there’s not a 100% drop rate even for M+ when getting at least the Plaguefall legendary.
LMAO wow ok. You’d think they’d have common sense to make them all 100% drop rate but I guess we can’t expect too much in that regard.
