Please find a way to make farming remnants more fun and engaging. Sitting around for 30+minutes for a crystal to blow is a snooze fest.

I agree. Ideally, taking on higher difficulties of Naxx will reward more Remnants, though.
Please Blizzard, this is so incredibly boring. I’m only engaging with this system because I know my guild will need it in order to clear higher difficulties and nobody wants to be That Guy 
that shows up without the max buff.
I logged on to wait hours at crystals in EPL to farm the rest of the 750 Remnants I need for raid tomorrow and just didn’t get to play video games tonight. There is nothing to do for this “event” and there’s no gameplay involved at all. Why is it even in the game? Is it so we can see all the other people standing around sharing in our misery?
Even if the Naxx Remnant drops are increased from higher difficulties, this mechanic is just adding insult to injury if we aren’t successfully progging higher difficulties–even if our guild can clear the raid on normal. Our reward for not being good enough is playing EPL waiting room simulator even more before the next raid.
Please, please end this torment. Please just make the buff increase each week or make it so we can actually play the game to accomplish our goals. This repeatable turn-in is all the compelling gameplay of waiting for world buffs to drop in OG classic but without any of the interaction with other players.

Well said. Tons of toons were talking about how bad it feels to sit around and just wait. Hopefully, they find a way to make this more engaging.
Yeah this feels like a needless chore. Either find another way to upgrade trinkets or let them automatically upgrade 1 tier per week.

classic+ = retail systems
2 40 main raids at this crystal right now and I’d say like half of both are AFK. Can’t say I blame them.
If they really wanted to timegate hardmodes then just have the trinkets upgrade automatically 1 level per week.
they should of put them on bosses in dungeons
This is a great solution. They should: add another turn in outside of EPL, either make the duration of the invasions half of what it is or at least make them engaging, something like mini world bosses which actually requires 20-40 players, allow Necrotic Runes to be converted into Remnants of Valor, make all Undead Bosses in dungeons drop Remnants of Valor, possible double value drops for Kara.
Just sitting AFK waiting for a pickup to turn in feels really bad and is not good gameplay
make kara bosses drop valor and old raid tiers.
This grind is complete insanity and just insanely toxic, my current strategy is to just completely AFK (even as a ghost if the close one is opposite faction controlled) at EPL shards because thats where the turn-in is.
Even adding turn-in spots doesn’t solve the issue of the event itself being awfully boring.
My alts are completely forgotten about because i refuse to do this grind on multiple toons…
GRRESH! What up my man.
I think you should get a full upgrade token for clearing Naxx.
+1 for Normal Mode
+2 for clearing 2/HM Wings
+3 for clearing 3/HM Wings
This way you have to interact with the invasions for at lest a level 1/2 trinket. Then the content clearing gets you there.
Grind a shard down to 5% just to get layered, fun!

I wonder why kara bosses dont drop some
Haven’t Grinded a single thing. 
Like all the other grinds since P2 it’s seems they are deemed worthless the next phase.
After missing a couple phases and coming back it feels like they are just trying to capture more of your screen time.
You don’t really need the gear to succeed the end game content, but kudos for trying hard.
You will absolutely 100% need them if you plan on doing any hard modes in Naxx. Trash will one shot you.

You definitely have not looked into how this phase works lmao
This is kinda the worst part. We did fine on bosses with HM2, but wound up turning down to 1 because half the raid would get wiped out on every other trash pack. I wish they could meet in the middle and make the bosses harder, but not have trash literally one-shot anyone who isn’t a tank.
Its bad, make Scholo and Strat Bosses drop them
heck, have all raid bosses drop them to incentivize ppl running older stuff.
we need so many to level up, and its so alt unfriendly, this would help both of those issues
Agreed. Same idea as with the reals. Reward people for doing older content.
Invasions are fine for a quick farm but they are not engaging content so why not open up other content to achieve the same goal.
