It's just gearscore for a new generation of scrubs, right down to the fact it doesn't even truly show how good you actually are at what you're doing. Is it a stupid system? Absolutely. Scores not counting cus of leaderboard garbage is lame af and bads who make it out to be their end all be all are equally bad. But, so was WoWkings, gearscore, and all this other garbage from in the wayback. Its all lame, but it isn't stopping you from doing anything if you already have the resources.
So many of you have guilds under your names. Whats stopping you from asking them? Are they all a bunch of dorks who log in and spam tradechat? Are they super casual where they don't even bother with m+? Is your guild just dead? Join a new one yo. Most players are more willing to gamble on someone internally rather than some scrub from another server that probably can't even tie their shoes. Stop making excuses.
Push your own keys solo yo. Start small with your +2s and work your way up. You can dictate your own runs and invite all the people who don't care about some e-peen score. Most of those higher level runs demanding a high score are bads who just want overgeared carries anyway.
So you don't like either of those two options. What do? Well, unfortunately for you, you have two last ones. Either A, bite the bullet and work with the stupid system and see where it gets you. Or B. just not do m+ at higher levels and not get the most powerful of loot. You do you boo-boo.
Stop making excuses as to why you allegedly can't do things. For real, I know Mythic + is boring, and IO sucks massive tentacles,sure, and trying to take a 2 key up to a 7 or 8+ is a potentially frustrating process, but at least you're doing it on your own terms.
TLDR Raider IO is lame, but you're lamer yourself for limiting yourself based on it. Git gud, or git rek'd.
So let me guess,you just got declined by a mythic group?

This thread is going places. Props to OP for simultaneously complaining about a system and insulting others who complain about the same system. If you had stopped with the title you'd have a decent point.

I understand its practical purposes, but I still think its a dumb system, especially in its current state. The fact that people are limiting themselves and calling for its banning is just lazy on their part. They have options, they're just too lazy to make use of them.
I'm sorry I hurt your feelings, but not really though.

So, then you just lack reading comprehension just like the first guy. Gotcha.

Scores aren't a problem when they are properly recorded every time. Not this maybe it will, maybe it won't nonsense.
Exactly.
Raider.io isnt going anywhere so stop complaining.
Start your own key or learn from your mistakes and get better. I like raider.io, its a standard that WOW doesnt have. WOW gives you free loot, i just made an alt and its 360 in a week. So ilvl is pointless. Im not going to invite people without a good raider.io because its pointless to even waste my time with a 370 who hasnt completed a +4 on time.

So is it a stupid system that doesn't reflect your actual skill? Or is it just a cheap excuse for why you can't seem to get a decent score?10/30/2018 12:56 AMPosted by PopukoStop making excuses as to why you allegedly can't do things.
For the record, I think M+ and R.io is just fine. I agree with your second point about it being an excuse.
So for all who dont know how raider i.o. works is if you complete a dungeon and make it on blizzards top 500 leaderboard for that dungeon that week you will get a score. this worked great in legion but not so good in BFA. this is because for some reason people are pushing keys harder then ever which good job to everyone doing so i am very happy to see this change but it is causing the leaderboards to fill the top 500 slots with very very high keys which because there is only 500 slots and this leaderboard is the only pool of data raider i.o. can pull from the only solution is to kindly ask blizzard to increase the size of there leader board. I do like the raider i.o. addon and the service they provide.
now instead of getting annoyed GET GUD
Anyway better yet demand a increase in the size of the leadership boards so your low keys count and u can better increase your score steadily while you GET GUD to the point where your ready to be pro

You have posted this many times and its WRONG. IT ISN't 500 slots. It is 500 slots for that dungeon and realm
From Raider Io " The Blizzard Mythic+ Leaderboard/API only includes runs that are ranked in the Top 500 weekly runs for each dungeon and realm. Your run must rank within the Top 500 of any member's realm for our system to track it. View leaderboard status for all realms & dungeons."
I would think people would use something like checking for Proving Grounds, Endless achiev/title for high keys. That at least somewhat shows the person is on top of mechanics for their spec.
If someone is applying for a +12, but only has silver dps, I'd be hesitant, ya know? At the same time, if someone had PG Endless for tanks, I'd feel much more confident about inviting them.
imho there are better ways to check (if one feels they super have to), than just relying on one measly addon.
I wonder how many people using this addon actually have Proving Grounds, Endless themselves?

/shrug so make your own system then
10/30/2018 12:56 AMPosted by Popukotrying to take a 2 key up to a 7 or 8+ is a potentially frustrating process
After reset you will get a key based on highest dungeon run, so this is only one week you need to worry about it in the expansion.

We know and when M+ poopularity goes down the tubes you ll blame Blizzard. Of course
