It stopped being amusing after the first post.
Give it a rest

I think Iâm going to nitro boost and double divine steed my way out of here. Til next time.
And you donât need bis of these just to run random BGs. This is more of a high rated arena players problems.
It would be more worthwhile if the classes were strong themselves, instead of this borrowed power design the devs are gung-ho on. Classes should be fun and fluid baseline, not require some artificial temporary means.

You donât technically need to have any gear on at all to run a random BG, but that doesnât mean theyâre not really nice to have and that you wonât feel like youâre missing out on them when youâre in a random BG.

Thatâs the thing though to get in rated content you just need to get honor gear. Right now you need BIS corruption, BIS Azerite essence and the cloak upgraded enough so it doesnât hinder you during a fight.

I mean Iâm still running a green essence. Not a deal breaker.
Its not a deal breaker when destro lock has chaos bolts for that deeps. Some classes are more dependent on gg essences.
You really donât. Different people have different expectations ofc, but a lot of rbg groups have a min ilvl set and thatâs it. Iâve never been kicked for my green essence or non max level cloak.
Iâve seen every class do well without having to have rank 3 of all essences.
Eh, essences are not that big of a deal. Corruptions though, those throw the power levels into obscene heights.
You can have equal Ilvl to your opponent but if they have BIS corruption then their damage is going to exceed yours.
My pants and ring increase my haste to 56% and with my wings burst I can get that up to 70%. Someone who doesnât have those effects will be likely around 18% haste and 30% haste with their burst. And just have similar stats to me in other areas.
The corruption is the biggest issue.
Ehh even those arenât that game breaking. Again, seen people without corruption or minimal corruption do fine. Different classes too
And at this point, it depends which specs they are. How/when they use their defensives/CC. Too much comes into play in pvp. If weâre talking a pure pve dps fight, sure the more geared will always win the number war.
Sure they can do âfineâ with minimal gear. However those blessed by RNG do great.
And some without it do great as well.
If they were the same specs one has a much higher ability to perform and influence the match than the other. Purely based on corruption procs and cloak level.

Sure but other things come into play such as who can CC better. PvP is not just a number game.
It was a skillcap game. Now its an rng proc having a large effect game. Bad design.

That is on player ability then. Iâm saying with how it is right now, corruption and cloak have too great an influence on matches. Making it essential to farm for them.
In contrast prior expacs you pursued gear based on stats, buying it from vendors and then you entered the arena where the difference between characters came down to Ilvl difference.
