With TWW only a couple months away, Ilvl isn’t nearly as important as grabbing those xmogs before TWW. No one wants to have to rerun DF raids again to get those perfect fits for your newest mog.
Remember folks, Ilvl is temporary… Xmog is forever!
I mostly used them to buy the mogs for weapons that are difficult to collect because I can’t roll need on them. For example, str 1-handers or intellect weapons
But to be fair, I did buy my BiS stuff first
But if you have alts that you dont care to gear, its a great time to get the weapon mogs
yeah most people need 5 items for their BiS (maybe only four depending on spec) and with the dungeon weekly, people already bought that and now have probably eight more weeks of bullions (as war within releases august 26 and we will have fated raids until the launch)
so people can buy their bis (or have already bought their bis) and still get the mogs they want, especially if they run through LFR with an alt or two
because the seasons is over and it doesn’t matter anymore. or that’s what OP is saying at least.
like… I’m done pushing keys (not that I pushed anything this season), I’m done raiding… why would I spend my bullions on BIS gear I don’t need when I can spend it on xmog instead?
Alternatively I can get full best in slot to level through the new expansion faster and easier, as well as the fact I already have all the appearances I want and can always go back later if I want anything else.
