SOLO PLAYER PENALTY -- Avg Gear Score Capped @ iLvl 198

Replace Solo with “players who refuse to do anything but queued content”

The LFG tool is available to find rated PVP, M+, and raids at any time.

If you only want to queue then conquest from random BGs + the bg weeklys would at least get you to 200 eventually.

I believe that’s an exaggeration on the sub part. And I wouldn’t mind less content in the game. I personally believe Blizzard puts too much effort in the wrong areas.

I wouldn’t consider them the same at all. I’m not sure if you saw my post earlier, but this is my take on things:

Casual: nothing above M0 and LFR
Semi-Casual: Normal into Heroic raiding, lower keys
Semi-Hardcore: AOTC, moving towards Mythic and higher keys
Progression: Mythic raiding and high keys

It lines up with the raid levels, which is why I think this way.

Thanks for promoting my old posts, you still failed to answer even a basic discussion so even if you consider me a troll, at least I don’t start arguments I can’t win :man_shrugging:

Yes, you can. Static groups, friends and guilds exist. If you want to push higher than casual content, find some friends.

This is wrong on so many levels.

This thread is about solo players, and what you’re saying is only true to the few that participate in active guilds or have a friend groups. If you haven’t already figured it out, majority of players are actively in LFG because they can’t do what you assume everyone can do.

How is it wrong at all? Literally the best gear is locked behind 2.1k rating or myhic nath and they nerfed raid and M+ loot so all the 40k HP players are in the 1400 bracket destroying the fresh 30k HP players who are also trying to compete for the same gear.

There’s a severe loot drought and it’s isolated to areas of the game only a small group of players reach.

You either pay for carry or no life your way to that isolated end game because for the average player, the time, nor gear is there to meet the requirements to even get in.

It’s all a time sink for the sake of being a time sink.

No, you just can’t make up your mind about your stance on anything, so ALL of your arguments fail.

Extra 30% rep/anima?

Not sure what stopping you from doing M+

I am a solo player 210 ilvl / #3 Druid tank on my realm by io. I am yet to set foot into CN. Did LFR wing 1 once for the giggles.

Sounds like its time to get into rated 2’s and 3’s to upgrade conquest gear you must have acquired by now by simply doing daily BG’s.

Read my comment above.

Overall, sounds like a “You” problem. You chose to ignore 90% of the game’s content. Not Blizzard.
You’re welcome to start doing ranked PvP
You’re welcome to start doing M+
You’re welcome to start raiding.

Maybe to you they fall flat, but me to and everyone else my opinion was valid then and it’s valid now.

Only people that can’t shake my logic resort to digging up old posts, it’s the easiest way to deflect from being outsmarted by me.

You are no longer Tupacshekar - I will now call you KatyPerry = Hot and Cold.

and that 90% can be done fine with 198ilvl

It’s a better name than Lycangemz, i’ll give you that much.

Maybe this is controversial opinion but isn’t 198 pretty decent catchup/casual gear?

I’m not sure how barely below Normal Mode Raiding Gear is a bad top-end for casuals to achieve?

Can someone explain why this is an issue to me?

Sure:

Hope it finds you well!

yeah you don’t really need 200 ilvl to farm raids or do pet battles I don’t think. idk maybe they made them harder :man_shrugging:

Again I will ask you how you went from these posts to this?

So care to answer today? Or are you still deflecting as you keep accusing others of doing?

Or they played the game and like it as is. Again, taking anything from you as gospel is odd considering you never played the game, flooded the forums with pro blizzard threads and now are a professional nay-sayer after you say you gave it a try and logged off the forums.

I stand by what I said then and I stand by what I say now, beyond promoting my old posts and getting me more views and likes do you have anything of value to what I said below?:

Or are you going to keep avoiding the reality of the game?

My reality? Or your distorted view of what you think will get you more likes?

I am playing and having the time of my life. Like I did when I started when I came back. Also, left without a dear diary post… I know that’s hard to comprehend for you.

So still deflecting huh? Cool. Consider this my daily check in with you. Until you decide to really fess up all your intentions, plenty will keep calling you out.

i just finished layer 8 twisting corridors for my mount. ilvl 193.
