The modern WoW element you're happiest to lose

Now – I’m not talking about things that you’d like to have back or increases in difficulty restored – this thread is all about the number one thing that has been added that you want to see gone.

For me it has to be vehicle quests – the ones where you really don’t stand any chance of failure whatsoever and just mindlessly blast a few things. BC introduced these in moderation, but they went into overdrive in Cataclysm.

Yeah, not a big fan of the vehicle quests.

World quests.
Not even daily quests, which I didn’t mind so much. World quests, the variation on dailies that were introduced in Legion. Just ugh.

Any form of daily/weekly chore masquerading as gameplay, like emissaries, dailies, world quests, and crap like that.

I long for a return to The Mirage Raceway where I can grab the quest for the dear old carrot on a stick.

“Catch up mechanics” of any sort.
Resulted in the nerfed world content, heirlooms, wonky tuning, etc…

It amazes me people call this casual friendly. It took a laid back game where casuals just did what they wanted and turned it into a job.

Warforging/Titanforging. It’s so silly for an LFR raider to be better geared than a Mythic raider just by getting lucky.

It’d be like if a person who did 5-mans in vanilla being better geared than someone who does Naxx.

the way talents are feels so restrictive. So I would say that.
Or better yet BFA.

This very same thing was asked just the other day! Come on guys… Read up!!

Every single pug becoming a random “Never see him/her again” encounter. Meaning, not having a server community.

Mythic + and the RNG loot system (TITANFORGING. TO HELL WITH THAT BS)

The Retail RP community. The Retail RP community is metastasized cancer, it’s awful.

Homogenized classes that ARE NOT balanced in any remote sense of the word.

Balanced, it would at least be something… But its not even close to being anything other than the system of Dev’s picking and choosing their favorite classes buffing them to hell and then when people complain saying “OYEAH? WELL HERES A NERFSTICK FOR YOU INSTEAD”

DK’s sit at 24-27k DPS. Warlocks sit at 29-34k… Demonology warlocks have smashed all of legion and all of BFA so far with no even LOOKING sideways at them.

I’ll be happy to see gone the set of “PvP talents” that arbitrarily turn themselves off because I went into a dungeon.

But that very same RP community started in vanilla.
