Just to avoid this in the future they should just scrap the idea of an off season. It doesnā€™t really benefit anyone

Let the season run patch to patch so thereā€™s no confusion on anyoneā€™s part

what are the chances mmr doesnā€™t get wiped?

the season does run to patch
the down time is to match the mythic raid opening which happens 2 weeks POST patch

basically with what youā€™re saying
the season would end 2 weeks after the patch (covering the off season)
but in those 2 weeks heroic raiders/m+ slammers would have access to gear like 30 ilvl higher than all pvp gear

the last 2 weeks of the season is the most competitive / only relevant point in the season for top end players so this would ruin the game even more

Give us 300 conquest for the troubles please. Iā€™m missing out on lots of conquest

if you somehow manage to get rank 1 i will unsub forever, however i donā€™t think i have much to worry about

iā€™m suggesting that the new season begin immediately with the patch, not run over

like we could have confirmation January 14th was the end of season 3 and beginning of season 4

which i donā€™t know how all this happened, my baseless assumption is just there was confusion somewhere with when the offseason was supposed to start. but like i said itā€™s baseless, i just donā€™t see the benefit of an offseason

having access to duelist/elite caches for 2 weeks before mythic opens would just be an unfair advantage some players would have twords progression

at the end of the day mythic race progression is one of if not the highest priority for blizzard when itā€™s happening

after that itā€™s casual experience
then several other things
then the comfort and satisfaction of the pvp community

imo they should either make it so you cant receive pvp caches for the first 2 weeks of the season but open the season up
or they should just remove all rating and make off season qs only skirms

the off season qs exists solely for the ā€œi PaY 15$ aNd pVp nOt qAbLe 4 tWo WeKs wTF???///??/?:ā€ idiots

Probably.

The end of the season cutoff likely triggers a bunch of other changes in the system that will also need to be rolled back.

Then thereā€™s the issue of all the conquest points that players should have been getting credit for during this time.

There might be CR/MMR ramifications too.

that sounds reasonable, in my opinion. either that or cap ilvl rewards until the mythic raid opens up

itā€™s not the end of the world that we canā€™t q for 2 weeks, but this scheduling seems like it just creates a lot of unnecessary confusion both internally and among the players. like on tuesday the community rep couldnā€™t even confirm whether the season was over or it was a mistake

Wouldnt that be a shame if pvp offered some kind of advantage in the game to pvpers lel, all this game is mythic+ and push rating, you get nothing relevant from pvp and if you dont m+ you get dumpstered on. Imo 2 weeks of pvp being the way to go shouldnt hurt anything other than forcing pve nerds to participate in the superior form of wow that blizzard neglects. Although this will never happen because dragonslaying and transmogs are all blizz gives a sh*t about oh wait dont forget petbattles hahaha.

imagine thinking blizzard cared about transmogs

youā€™re wearing a bfa transmog you know how little effort they put in and how bad they look this xpac

I assume the bug is caused because the gear rewards have ended so the system was tricked into believing the season has ended as well.

Regardless, it should have been fixed by now tbh. Still no update, lol.

how is that unfair? Is it unfair that limit was ally and swapped back for the extra bit of loot? Is it unfair if people do split runs or do heroic? I think there should be MORE incentive to reward PVP play, not less.

475 azerite (azerite ilvl cap pre mythic nzoth) is MUCH different than a trashy heroic raid quality piece from worldquesting

tank is frying your small brain

??? People got max lvl TF stuff. I get its different THIS upcoming patch because no more TFs, but at the end of the day its not that much different from a TF socket piece. Also, nothing is tuned around that 1% extra raid dps you get from one person having an upgrade. Thatā€™s just not nearly as relevant as youā€™re making it out to be. Also, Iā€™m 8/8M Prenerf Azshara, so I think i know what im talking about here.

Furthermore, itā€™s not required. People can do it if they want and dont have to if they dont. I think pvp should be MORE incentivized for gearing; not less.

calm down US 50 you arenā€™t good

also idk why youā€™re arguing with me iā€™m not blizzard

iā€™m just offering incite

i havenā€™t cared about pve since i was 50 guild ranks higher than urs a couple xpacs ago

edit: sorry us 110 ??? (LMAO)
when i was 110* guild ranks better than u

so hold up. You throw insults and then ask why Iā€™m talking to you? Youā€™re also clearly washed and talking smack? Not sure where you get your elitist attitude, but itā€™s okay to be wrong. Thereā€™s nothing wrong with further incentivizing PVP gear and offering MORE ways to get gear, especially when itā€™s already SO skewed towards pve, but with gear mattering just as much in pvp.
