Why does it matter what another person has if it doesnât directly impact you. The conversation can go both ways.

As a kinda mid-tier player who generally doesnât support the idea of low-end content providing high-end rewards (but slower) because I feel like it makes my effort less meaningfulâŚ
⌠I still get why low-end players want better gear. Progression is the name of the game when it comes to MMORPG endgame. If youâre not getting stronger, thereâs very little reason to do anything. Itâs not like grinding the same handful of world quests or daily quests 7 times a week is fulfilling content all on its own. Itâs because itâs leading somewhere that people do it, Iâd imagine. At least for the most part.
Even if someone doesnât want to participate in higher-end group content (or doesnât have the time to), theyâre still going to want to feel like theyâre making progress on their character.
The lower the rewards theyâre capped at with the content they do, the faster they get bored and move on or force themselves to keep interested by repeating the process on another character.
I can understand that.
Iâll probably always disagree with those players on whatâs âacceptableâ as an endpoint for such content though. I think making the jump to harder content needs to mean something, and the more overlap there is between that content and world/solo/casual content, the less it means.

I am casual, play like 2, maybe 3 hours every couple days. More on weekends.
Still managed to get everything i wanted done.
I think its more about solo players with social issues that demand this kind of thing.

Fair enough. I recently ran through the venthyr campaign on my 223 DK alt. Just pulled everything & killed it. Can get to 225 easily with Korthia gear (without any rep) & world drops. If itâs your main then you can get much higher with Korthia rep.

As a fellow casual, I would like to know this as well.
I have read hundreds of posts on the subject and have yet to see any explanation that does not boil down to: âBecause I want it.â
Which is not a convincing argument in my world.
(Unless I am the person saying it, of course 
.)

This discussion has been started multiple times. My opinions have been that the highest level content should reward the best gear but casuals should have access to gear that is comparable. (Aside from PvP, PvP gear should be equal from the bottom up)
Casuals want better gear because itâs something to work towards and they like seeing things blow up faster.

then they should attempt normal raiding the bare minimum then?
normal mode raiding is also casual⌠its literally the same thing as LFR, you just have to pay attention more

Iâm a very casual player and I have no need for high end gear.
Just give me enough to do questing, and some dailies and Iâm good. lol
I have no need of high gear if Iâm not doing high gear content. I do not need gear for mythic + if I donât do mythic + for example.

Casuals need better gear so that they can solo old raid bosses.

That said, if M+ players only want it in game for fun and test skill, then why do they need it to reward gear?

Yeah but that isnât gonna kill Gâhuun
