at max level there is no progression for a solo player to get comparable gear.

there are many ways to get PVP gear (solo) at max level?
Do you feel you cannot

What? I initially treated his post as if he was well intentioned, and it only became apparent he was trolling by his reply to me?

I’m sorry I can’t see the future as well as you can play monday morning quarterback.

Thanks for the input. Filed in the circular drawer.

Your mom. Do you want the details?

You got catfished by their mom?

[Murdamore-thrall]

It still amuses me, that we can go kill the new bosses in the storm even without discord, guilds, pre-made groups, and all the bs they come with, and still kill the bosses that are mythic difficulty.

Oh no! Did she say those outdoor bosses are mythic difficulty!? Yes I did. I know for a fact your 10 man max geared for mythic raids can’t kill those bosses. Oh yeah? Prove it.

Because us doing them ungrouped without all the hoopla kinda makes the mythic hardcore players that need 10 addons and discord etc look silly. js

[Isabelley-korgath]

what ilevel do you want to make exactly? and should you be able to make these with just grabbing the mats in about an hour or so?

[Astarotte-azshara]

Just the basic 389 leather gear.

Most of the mats are gatherable. But the primal things are harder. You need 40 to 50 each, and 80 each for weapons. For a physically challenged soloist, who only does world quests, digging (so far only seen 1 single mound), and the occasion heroic, that’s a no-go.

I’m not doing hundred of heroics. That’s just stupid and waste of time, just for one primal. So no, you can NOT just go out and get what you need in an hour. And before you say I don’t need it, I know that. BUT! They gave me the ability to make it, so I should be able to. If not, they lied and it’s a failure.

[Sneakylevi-area-52]

I really tried to understand op here but im drawing a blank. Are you mad that you cant get into high end mythics when you are in full shadowlands gear? And you’re mad about this? Tf?

[Isabelley-korgath]

the game is made and the primals drops are figured into making a 389 piece. the primals will drop more later if you want to wait. but if you want primals and make 389 gear you have to run the heroics or +. its just the game. maybe buy the primals?

edit: primals as in chaos. soulbound. run pvp and win some games primal chaos x10 in 4 hours

[Astarotte-azshara]

You can’t auction the primals. And no, I don’t do M+ because of my physical restrictions. Nor do I Raid or PvP. I have no choice but to wait and that sucks. The strange thing is, the people who DO raid and do M+ don’t need the primals, do they? Are they used for anything other than making the crafted gear? If not, it’s a bad gate because those who can get them, don’t need them. Those who need them, and play solo, can’t get them. Bad design.

@Shokmastaflk-tichondrius

You still cannot get gear right at certain levels.

How? Care to explain?

[Rigatoní-area-52]

I’m lost. What is OP on about? Is he on about the casual lfr people who complain about not getting mythic+ gear and the players who actually do PVE content? Or is he on about osmething else

[Zemus-hyjal]

This idea that only a small % of the playerbase participates in the three pillars is simply wrong.

[Isabelley-korgath]

see my edit ^^^ above

[Pyromor-shandris (Pyromor)]

Op,if it’s stats you’re right balance is off and some spec need more of one stat to play well,yet this what Blizzard doesn’t wish you do,play well.

[Rigatoní-area-52]

Bro, come on be for real. You really think for the simplest moment that people who do WQS and sit around Vladdraken overall doing nothing in game, deserve to get high gear? Even the roleplayers?

[Astarotte-azshara]

You’re asking someone who has had multiple strokes to PvP and win?

[Isabelley-korgath]

good question. here is what u do. que for regular battle grounds. every so often you will get a good team. you contribute as much as your skill level dictates. you will actually find it fun. DH is good at flag spinning just have fun and get your primals. stay out of arena’s lol

[Vhx-black-dragonflight]

Rares are your best bet. 30min spawn, people are always doing this for the bottled essence chance. Get a few primal chaos at a time, and you can check for disturbed dirt piles & expedition scout packs in the nearby areas.

Remember for the dirt piles, if you don’t have shovels in your bags, the piles won’t show up on your map.

If you don’t mind using WeakAuras, this is handy and gives you coordinates as well as timer.

Lol your pretty defensive for someone talking out their backside…,

[Siersha-proudmoore]

@Deadmarsh-thrall

That makes absolute sense lol, but not in a way that supports your claim.

1. Solo players do not need gear that is intended for group content.
2. If solo players had a path to the top tier gear then group players would just use it as a shortcut to gear their players, making end game pointless.
3. If they did give solo players paths to all the top tier gear then to avoid point #2 from happening they would have to make that path an absolutely horrendous grind and then you have endless whining that the path for them is too hard.

Everything you said is wrong.

1. if the casual player has no path to continue progress, they QUIT PLAYING.
2. Endgame should be because you want to, not because its the only path.
3. No one said it had to be quick or easy. Just available.
