The gap between M+ and Delves

They didn’t really buff rewards, they altered the acquisition of the same rewards. You still need to do the same content difficulty in M+ to get the crests. Blizzard also almost never makes things more difficult during a season. We will see what happens in S2.

All that tells us is that they’re keeping rewards inflated in delves to bring people into delves. It’s hardly the first time that they have done that.

Your opinions value is so low I don’t actually care what you think.

Crests are a part of the reward package in all content and correlate to character power. Buffing crests = buffing rewards.

You can’t, that’s correct, but you also have a 2/5 chance of getting an item. You can get 6-7 delve keys a week on average, so that’s 7~ items.

The number of dungeons you’d need to run in a week to get 7 items is 17. That’s more than two vaults.

gear power scale has always been a problem, yes, but its also a self fulfilling problem. How do you make players feel “Stronger” over an expansion, sure, adding abilities helps somewhat, until you hit endgame. Numbers goes up scratches that dopamine itch that keeps MMO’s like WoW alive.

Your opinion too covers only the top 5%. It doesnt cover the majority. You think your opinion is okay… for the top 5% but not for the lower 95%.

Well, no that’s actually not correct because of Zekvir invasions dropping champion loot. Coupled with keys being farmable and not needing keys to get hero loot either, I’m not sure what you thought this proved.

Crests are rewards, but again you still have to do the same difficulty as before. So it’s not really changing anything in terms of making the rewards obtainable in easier content. It’s about increasing the acquisition in higher keys to make rewards match the difficulty. Meaning +12s should be more rewarding than a +8 since right now they reward the same. Thus, 12s are not rewarding proportionally to the difficulty.

+8s are still only dropping 12 crests.

I’m not even in the top 5%. You just have no idea what you’re talking about.

Give everyone 1% more damage every week.

If people want gear to be an inevitability or a given then just cut out the middle man.

And how many crests from those M+?

No one is making this arguement

Good. Coz you pretend you belong to top 5%.

Aren’t they also doing this though? Thought there was some progressive weekly buff in raids.

there literally are people making those arguments, but they’re a hyper minority. Faux would be making that exact argument right now if he were in here, demanding delve gear be lowered to champion gear only.

How can I pretend to be in the top 5% while saying I don’t belong in the top 5%?

You are so clueless you don’t make any sense.

Apply it to the entire game. No more gear, people still get stronger.

That’s just in raids and it’s every other week.

Only a VERY SPECIFIC small minority are farming delves for maps without keys. That’s like saying +12 M+ folks are farming +6s for crests and loot. At either point it’s trivializing. And mind numbing.

If you can show me the actual real percentage of people farming +8s for maps without keys I’d love to see it, because my take would be that it’s such a small number as to literally not matter.
