Stop Nerfing Trinkets and Buff Bad Trinkets

There are already too many bad trinkets and the couple of good trinkets are hard AF to farm. You should try to buff the bad trinkets instead of nerfing the few that are actually decent. Warriors are still running OWS (If they got it last tier) and you nerfed one of the two decent tanking trinkets. Casters are forced to farm the same SLR and Changeling. Just buff some of the bad trinkets to even out the spread and make it less of a pain to farm 2 trinkets that have a 0.001% chance to drop it seems.

Edit: They pulled back some of the nerfs. However, that still leaves us with the issue of trinkets being hard AF to farm and few that are decent.

Nah. Do both. Some trinkets are notoriously awful in every expansion and have no excuse to be so useless. Buff those.

But some trinkets are super overtuned for their ilvl and have been from the start, and should have been nerfed in the first month of the expansion.

This whole “never nerf, only buff” mentality just leads to massive power creep over time and generally just doesn’t make sense, whether it’s about trinkets or class balance.

I don’t think any of them are game breaking and really need to be nerfed. And they are only good for that season. (Other than the few like OWS).

the ability for codex to pull through walls was broken. I can agree that needed to be fixed.

but other than that… meh. it was already a stam trinket. now it’s a stam trinket no one will use.

The absorb was nice. And agree’d, cheesing things should not exist and should be fixed. But when ALL other trinkets, outside scale and now protoform from the raid, are trash, that’s an issue.
And again those two are a PAIN to farm with such low drop rates.

I disagree that all other trinkets are trash, though I can’t speak to str trinkets, only agi.

I’ll swap back to using phial for most things.

That said, there are a large number of completely useless trinkets that are so bad, no one wants them. Ocarina, anyone? no? they’re just loot table bloat.

Ocarina has such a weird uptime. Not even enough to finish most m+ runs. You usually have to redo it 3/4 of the way in and usually I would forget.

Doesn’t it feel great to grind the heck out of a piece of gear, only for it to get nerfed?
