I was never starved on flightstones lol. Maybe on alts that don’t do any real content…

If you were running low keys for flightstones, you were doing something horribly wrong. The -only- time I ever said, “Man, I need to get flightstones” was when I hopped on an alt and only did 1~2 dungeons and still had 8+ pieces of gear to upgrade.
Mains needing flightstones are getting more gear than they can handle upgrading to max in a single day. If anything, M+ players were getting more flightstones and crests than anyone else, faster than anyone else, you weren’t gatekept if you spent most gameplay time doing M+, even if it was only 30 minutes~1 hour a day.
Though, is cute if you think people having a different opinion means they were carried. I’ll let you enjoy your uh… Whatever it is you’re doing. I’m going to just go back to carrying people without complaining about having to carry them like a diva.
Though, to summarize the thread
I agree delete mythic plus.

You’re strawmanning to so many tangents back to back to back to back instead of addressing the facts I laid out for you several times. Because you got dunked on. You took this real personal eh?
You made it so personal that you must derail someone standing up for video game standards like no one you’ve ever seen do before?
I honestly didn’t think you were trolling in your first comment, I just thought you were acting very young, which is why I gave you a very courteous reply.
In response, instead of reciprocating that (the best form being to have closed your mouth, and/or walk away like a mature adult), you’ve resorted to strawmanning to other pillars of content, telling me that I should not want to do certain content, now you’re telling me that farming Flightstones, although arbitrarily necessary in Season 3 by design, I will be doing it wrong…?
And the best you did this season was 2700 on a meta class…
What is your end goal? What can make you stop trolling feedback that just wants content to make sense and not be so predatory, like it was before this xpac. We have the technology.
What are your closing arguments on your anecdotal stance?
Don’t worry so much, man.
Mains who play efficiently will be max IL cap within a few weeks and it won’t matter anymore, and there will be a plethora of catchup for alts if we want it.
It is all the same every season. There’s a little stress for the first week (sometimes two if you run into a wall of bad luck) of the season to ensure gearing is perfect for initial KSH push, but then you’re done and you can wave goodbye to caring about it.
Are you title pushing this season? Even then, you will be waiting for specific weeks later in the patch and gear will be a non issue.
Have fun out there!
Of course. I enjoy the initial season start for gear. Yes people gear up at that time. That’s not what I was giving feedback on. Thank you, though.
Non-meta. Devastation is not and hasn’t been the meta, nice try though. I pushed 2700 just to have all 20s timed across the board before Aug was even released because I just go for portals and call it a day. You say you only do M+ and are only at 3k after Aug’s release. The gap isn’t skill there, it’s investment.
Don’t worry though, you seemed to be hyped to say Shadowlands was better (were you carried by S4 BDK scaling or something?) I’ve simply been saying that to 99% of the playerbase, the change is a net-positive. Slower gearing, yes, but S2 gearing was WAY too fast that a lot of players would get gear, then stop playing because they were ‘done’ for the season after achieving their M+, Raiding, PvP, or whatever other goals they set for themselves.
And I didn’t say “farming flightstones will be wrong” I said “running low keys for flightstones” would be doing it wrong because you’d be running 2~3 times as many dungeons, throwing more crests away to the cap, and being overall inefficient. In SEASON 1, people ran +2s repeatedly for Valor because it was efficient.
In S2, running +2s was inefficient because if you ran 11s/16s/20s or higher, you were swimming in flightstones and crests without farming low dungeons. Crafted gear used 4 Aspect Crests (which was 5 timed dungeons) and zero flightstones. In those 5 dungeons, you’d earn more flightstones than you’d ever spend simply by the rate of acquiring them.
In Season 3, is like Season 2. The major part that changes is that for Crafted Gear specifically requiring flightstones, you still spend less flightstones than if you were to use those crests spent on the enchanted crest to upgrade a similar piece of non-crafted gear the same way.
If you resort to thinking that you need to run trivial M+ for things like it was S1, you’ve lost sight of what “factual” means.

Did you heal this season or last?
It isn’t anything like you’re saying. Do you remember pushing SL S3 week 1 15s?
Necrotic Wake was LOOOOOOOL until it was nerfed into the GROUND.
People have such short memories here.

He pulled the “but yer rating only 2700” card because he thinks 3k post-Aug makes him the big head-honcho.
Hell, I have been raiding with people who are 3.4~3.6k io that still don’t know what they are talking about half the time so whenever someone pulls that card I just laugh.

That was again another tangent of a 2700 meta class player (for whatever reason, we all have different goals) trying to tell a 3k player that regardless of their off-meta class, I was carried…
Not sure about the rest of what you said. It is known that +11 and +17 are the ‘sweet spots’ for constant farming/carries. Regardless of your experiences, that is a thing up to and including today. The entire gearing phase of Season 2 for me, my friends, acquaintances from dungeons, was there was never enough Flightstones or crests so wanna do some 11s?(17s?)
I’d also like to point out I am directly addressing your red herring arguments, because I’m a great guy, very reasonable and solutions oriented.
On the flip side, you still haven’t told me what your personal investment is here after you assumed, and therefore did not read my OP.
3rd time- what is your goal here? Is it trolling? Or you are acting your age? Or you don’t want people to have fun? What is your goal? Why can’t you just go away instead of being consistently evasive and tangential? What is your goal?
What is your goal?

So is it 90 crests per week, regardless of type, or can you earn 90 crests of each type per week?
90 of each tier minus 60 for crafting.
Good. By week 4 I literally had no use for them outside of crafting off pieces. Gearing desperately needed to be slowed down and this in no way will be a drought.
Yea, rotted currency. Bad design. I agree.
You do know what the word ‘meta’ means, right? Or… is that buzzword now simply part of your culture that it has lost all meaning? Devastation is not-meta, hence the eligibility for BTM every season as Dev went from low-average representation to near-zero representation after Aug’s release.
My goal has been simple though. To explain that the simple thing of currency that somehow still eludes you is actually a net-positive. We hated Valor in S1 because we had to run those trivial dungeons for upgrades.
In S2, we didn’t, we were able to engage in the content that was rewarding in all aspects (Vault/Drop to a lesser extent/Crests/Flightstones) instead of wasting time on low-keys and were actually incentivized not to do trivial content unless we were helping someone else. 17s became irrelevant the instant the Myth path opened up for anyone who was doing content had too many aspect crests already – S3 addresses that by making 18 the new ‘bare minimum for best reward’ key so the effort more closely aligns with the reward.
But I suppose I shall let you go because numbers are a bit beyond tank-diva brain. Feel free to criticize my logs if you want, it’d be a shame if my baby alt BDK was twice as capable as your 3k IO BDK if you wanted to argue skill or competence.
…Actually, I retract that. Don’t look at logs. Seeing a BDK doing 22k DPS at 440+ ilvl is pain. You were hard-carried in LFR. Don’t speak.
So you agree there was an issue that will not exist now? Cool. Glad you made an entire thread about it.
No, you’ve misunderstood. You’re clearly not here in good faith, perhaps that’s why, edgelord.
You made no sense. Probably trying to intentionally give false info to the audience yet again. What a life.
You were obviously here to troll from your meta class.
Thanks for finally announcing your departure though. take care.
