Except it doesn’t keep me subbed. All they had to do was add more levels to the Cypher system or add Fated quests somewhere to earn higher gear.

That all got thrown away from the official 9.3 patch when subs bled and they pulled the "WoD’ treatment on shadowlands, forcing jailer and last 2 bosses into the final raid instead of the final true patch. So now they threw the bare minimum for their “experiments” in this season and the rest of the time into DF dev to get it out sooner. On the bright side it sounds like you could take a break from wow and save some $$ while there’s no content for you seeing as you do not plan to do fated raids or farm KSM.

Blizz gods can you hotfix this and have S3 end next reset? Im tired of SL grind would love to get to S4 and beyond.
Thanks
So does this mean higher item levels will be released, and how would this work given there’s no new raid to compete with mythic+ and arena?
Jokes on us. It’s still S3, but the “hamster wheel edition”. Now with more bigger number loots WOW

There are important questions that need answers for season 4
Will legendaries have a higher item level than 291? (Crafting them on intentionally weaker stat budget slots seems counterintuitive and not intended design)
Will conduits have an ilvl increase?
For those grinding conduits in season 3 and unable to achieve 3k rating in time, the reset of season 4 might feel particularly bad, starting from 0. Is there catchup for 278 conduits in season 4?
Sylvanas legendary Bow on the Dinar vendor? (likely not since it is unique, How about ilvl upgrade items?)
Will Sylv legendary bow appear in great vault in season 4?
Will you need to kill the boss on a given difficulty to unlock its loot in Great Vault as has been the case in previous shadowlands seasons? Tier Items still appearing separately from this restriction regardless?
With sylv bow being unique and being untradable (as it can’t drop twice for you, so you can’t ever trade extra away) Putting it on the vendor is somewhat necessary to make it roughly equivalent ease of acquirability compared to all other weapons
Will weapons in Castle Nathria still be token drops? And will weapons in Sanctum and Sepulcher remain non-token drops?
Tier set items will only drop in Sepulcher? No token drops in other raids during their fated week?
Cross Realm Mythic will be available the entire duration of season 4?
No Season 4 hall of fame?
Where do I even begin? An unrealistic expectation on the other half of the raiding community

Having gated the last 3 bosses like never before, increasing the raid difficulty to accommodate the top tier guilds and now you guys bring forth the audacity to stop the opportunity of obtaining CE for the ‘last’ raid within 5 months grace period when all your last tier raid in other expansions always almost lasted for almost 7 months period at least. The timeframe should be extended not cut short. Have you ever considered it took the RWF at least 2 weeks to be completed?

Having the Game Director of WoW, Ion Hazzikostas, recently admitting that ‘Sepulcher was an arm race with Echo and Liquid’ in the recent interview with Towelliee and in addition having to announce that S4 was to be released on August 2nd on a Community General Discussion forum casually with no context about CE cut off period. Are you guys so self-centered that you only cater the raiding scene for top 100 US guilds this tier? Why was this shortfall not communicated earlier to the raiding community so there won’t be time dedicated and commitment in aiming for CE this tier? Look at all the guilds that have achieved CE since your ’nerf’ to Jailer. Was this an attempt to justify the % of guilds achieving CE for fully gutting Jailer?
Do you guys understand it’s time we need, not the nerf? Do you realised the number of pulls required on Anduin for guilds that are still around 7/11m (using only 4 months period)? You developers put this relentless raid difficulty on the raiding community then to shorten it and throw an experimental raid at us? No, it’s not about ‘getting good’. You have different demographics in the raiding scene, some only have time for 2 nights raiding and depending on your realm/server, you can only get this much good players in the team (often mixed with average players). We are all trying. All things considered, Heroic Jailer was almost ignored by every mythic guild so the progress of mythic can swiftly be started and yet for some above average guild, to obtain CE this still requires the ‘we need to get it done quick’ mentality where in all other expansions, it would have been a fantastic pace. Stop measuring and dictating the raid to cater top guilds. Not everyone can raid for 5 straight days.
- You have a simple solution to please the community. Extend CE for another 2-3 months. Release S4 anyway and experiment what you need on with the other part of the raiding community who needs new content trying the new fated raid.
This is ‘experimental’, no? You need our inputs/our time to trial your ideas. In return, stop killing guilds with your impulse and disorganized decision to release ‘additional unrequired raid tier’ just because you guys needed a filler to buy more time.
Look at the player base you have remained in WoW, how many ‘good’ players are left and maybe truly learn from your mistakes of why and how you have lost so many subscribers in the past. This has truly been the worst I’ve seen. For once, look at the POV of the guild leaders who have harvested time and effort recruiting, dedicating time to only get done for by the time frame given. With all due credits to raiders who stick to one guild till the end.
You started off the whole ‘we are listening to the community’ at the introduction of Dragonflight and if you truly do, you would have read all the comments in here and put out an action plan to assist guilds that are not within top 200 and give everyone a fair chance to achieve CE within a specific time frame but still today, 19/07/2022, 2 weeks to S4, all you did was to nerf last 3 bosses particularly jailer for top guilds in every server to achieve them to boost the % and neglect all the other guilds that are trying their best to get that in an unrealistic time frame.

How is it that People can Kill 3 angels one at a time during top of SoA? when they are supposed to be killed all together or at least 2 at once then last one.
For PVP elite gear, can you touch on if S4 will be exactly the same as S3.
Asking for a friend.

I started a new alt and planned on capping my 15k honor points cap. Will the total amount transfer over to Season 4?

Is our valor being reset or not? They did not say.
I also want to know about this.
Kind of worried we’ve had basically no updates.
