The current scaling for old content is unacceptable

So I have never been much of a hardcore raider and I’m also not much of a Mythic+ person. Mainly I get my enjoyment from trying to collect the various mounts and mogs that are all over the game. And now that I have a hunter? I will be collecting pets as well.

But I haven’t been doing my mounts and mogs run on all my toons like I usually do because of Shadowlands. So last night I decided to finally sit down and go back through my usual runs.

And what in the holy crap spackle did Blizz do to the scaling? It’s all over the place. I breezed through LFR Nighthold (hunter LFR set looks awesome to me) until I got to two random trash mobs. Suddenly my attacks were doing nothing and I poop you not those two trash mobs took me longer than the Guldan fight to finish. So I thought “huh that was weird” and finished the raid with little issue after that. Then I went to throne of the four winds and nearly died on the conclave. I have been farming Throne of the four winds for nearly a year now and never had so much as a hiccup in it and suddenly I’m almost dying? And that’s not even mentioning the various rares and world bosses from BFA that I no problem with in BFA, but suddenly I can’t do them on my level 60 Shammy?

What in the actual heck is going on? What has Blizzard broken this time? And better yet when is it going to be fixed? I’m not kidding when I say that 90% of my time since I returned to the game is spent farming this old content for mogs and mounts. It’s where I get all of my enjoyment out of WoW these days.

We know. This is the 99999999999999th thread on the topic. It sucks. It’ll eventually be fixed. It probably won’t even be looked at until the first major patch, though. There is far too much balancing that needs to be done with the current content.

Oh sorry. I have been away from the forum for two weeks so I didn’t know.

No it wont, did you read the ion interview?

From what I took from it, they think everything is fine and everyone should have expected to be weaker too bad. Then asked for specific problems like all the bug reports and twitter posts aren’t enough ,there is supposed to be some magical place you can report specific problems.

Matter of fact im willing to bet, IF they even bother tuning old content AT ALL, it wont be for another year and 75% wont even get touched.

That would have me leaving the game then. Like I said farming old content is 90% of what I do for fun.
