I think Pathfinder should STAY a meta achievement AS IS for shadowlands with one major change. Remove all reputation requirements. The reputation part of it is what I see the most complaints on and what I’ve also heard the most complaints on in game. It is also always a huge hindrance to returning players.
With it being just a meta achievement if you have the time and dedication you could literally pump it out in one day if you wanted.
I am talking about the NEW Pathfinder in this thread that they will come out with post 60
No hard pass doing this on every single character. Major, big, hard pass.
Removing Rep would be fine imo. I like account bound flying, not shelling so much gold for that nonsense. I also like being able to level with it.
Edit: For those that can’t understand/want to twist what I’m saying, 5-10k PER CHARACTER is a gigantic waste of gold that can go to other aspects of the game. Some people don’t care. I do. I also like flying when I level my alts.
Pathfinder would be just fine for me if they removed the rep wall and timegate.
Getting 5k-10k gold on your main is a walk in the park. If getting that much tough, I don’t know what else to say about how you gather your gold. Maybe work on getting professions that make money.
Well, lets say, you level up your main and got it gear. You get about 5K + just from leveling and selling stuff. You want to level and alt? Send that alt 5k gold, since you’ll make it back on your alt. And send that to your other alts. Don’t see the problem there. Did that when it was introduced. 25+ alts and its hard to even gather 5k? I don’t want to know how you survived when that was first introduced in previous expansions. If that isn’t enough, no idea what to say.
What about my reading comprehension? What are your suggestions for that, Mr. Know-It-All?
In all seriousness, I don’t care about the reputation so much. My problem with Pathfinder wasn’t about the reputation, it was how long it took to actually be able to fly after I unlocked Pathfinder Part One.
My suggestion was to just make “Part One” apply to the first zones, but not make it account wide until you unlock Part Two. So if they had gone that way for BfA, it would have let you unlock flying in Zandalar/Kul Tiras for the character(s) that achieved it. Then you’d have to unlock flying for Nazjatar/Mechagon, at which point flying in all zones would be unlocked account wide.
The reputations really aren’t that difficult to do. It was kinda bad with WoD just because of the lack of ways to gain reputation apart from dailies, but the WQ/emissary system helps a lot in that regard.
simply tie it to each zones “main quests”, that thing we already get an achievement for. accomplishes basically the same thing without needing to go and gring out every single damn reputation for weeks on end.
This would be great, honestly. No rep grind, and no timegates.
I honestly don’t think you can, or I think you aren’t able to actually pay attention. I’d need to shell out that amount for every single alt, which is a huge waste of gold. If you don’t think so? That’s fine. I’m going to just disagree, because we don’t see eye-to-eye. That’s 125k that can go to something else I want to get in the game. How it used to be, it didn’t apply to your entire account.
AKA? I like Pathfinder as an idea. I don’t like the timegate or rep wall. Without those two things, it’d be just fine, and no one would have any right to complain.
No, I can, but continue reaching though. You make more than 5k when you level, maybe more depending on alt professions, if you’re too lazy to collect that. But hey “Shrug” to each their own.
