So what is it you do in the game?

I do world quests, mythic +, raid, some pet battles, and old world farming for mog and mounts. One of the things I’d really like to see is Blizzard pulling back farming required for some of the essences. For example, rank 3 of Vision of Perfection is gated behind 4 weeks of King Mechagon kills (on normal mode). Why? One thing about this game that is starting to get very frustrating for me is the fact that not only do we have rental gear, but we have to grind the power for it. If we have to wear rental gear, why make us jump through hoops to actually use it at a fully functional level? I’m getting pretty sick of that whole situation.
