They may not like rated pvp, or mythics, or raids.
I primarily raid for the story, since my wacky schedule keeps me out of most raiding guilds.
I enjoy bgs but the rated stuff takes too long to get into and that pesky schedule gets in the way again.
Those who complain about WoW being to insert complaint of the day here will be the same people who complain if Blizzard changes it. There has been complainers in WoW since beta I bet.
People who complain wear it like a badge of honour.
Hey op! I’ve done both mythic 10 in legion and BFA, also have hit 1500 in 2’s :”).
Wow in general is a really easy game to learn and get into even for noobs. It may seem overwhelming for new players, but with a experienced player teaching you and soooo many resources on getting good. Ex: Icey veins, wowhead, Wow YouTube community.
I’d say wow really is easy, getting gear has never been easier now with titan forging, war forging. Fresh 120 can be geared for heroic raiding in 3 days tops.
I’ve never found wow to be challenging and I still don’t not even playing classic I find it easy peasy.
What wow has always been about is commitment what you put into it is what you get. Playing 4 alts a day isn’t gonna get you far in whatever branch of the game you’re going for. Playing 2 hours a day isn’t going to get you very far either, personally you gotta play 5+ hours daily in pve or pvp whatever area you want to succeed in.
That’s what Wow has always been about, asmon, Cdew, Esfand and Swifty. Those people put so much commitment into the game, money and time, they’re some of the best players out there.
Checking data, very little of the player base is able to beat a +10. They do take great skill. Dodging one shot mechanics in a scramble, interrupting, focusing, and tactical understanding. Above and pass level 10 just requires this so much more. Most people you’ll find if you ask in trade chat will say they’ve never been able to do past a 4.
it is hard.
Raiding? barely anyone has beat mythic eternal palace, especially in it’s entirety. It’s not easy at all. Just like anything if you practice for days and wipe 10000 times they can make it look easy. So can a guitar player.
it is hard, and heroic raiding in 3 days? If the guild really likes you MAYBE lol. usually minumum of 415+ is needed. Benthic, the pieces they do give you are 385. You’ll get maybe 1-2 to 400 with usual game time. Trinkets, weapons, and the others will take a while. Weapons are slow to drop, and even in world quests they are low ilvl until you’re 420+ which by at that point they mean nothing.
You say you’ve never found wow to be challenging, well looking at your profile I can see why. The last 3 raids you only did LFR. This includes Eternal palance. Not even a single heroic. based on your ilvl I can see you’ve been playing a while on this toon, surely more than 3 days. So what’s going on brother?
People who say silly things like “FRESH 120 IN 2-3 DAYS HEROIC RAIDING ROFL LAWL” is spewing out nonsense that has just become popular to spew.
the game is not easy. It’s easy in the easier parts, like any other game.
Pay to join a random mythic guilds run through eternal. And watch how easy it is while you’re dying constantly knowing nothing.
Difficulty only leads to drama, so I shy away from them both. I just don’t get the try-hard mentality, if I wanted to put everything I had into something it certainly wouldn’t be this game. My old computer wouldn’t let me play competitively if I tried. So I’ll take my “easy” game (with a lot of actual hard content for those who enjoy that), thanks.
The only 1 shot I can think of in a 10 would be the cyclone strike from temple of sethralis and only if you are standing close enough to get hit by multiple of them at once.
10 are more comparable with heroic that mythic imo. My guild pretty much 1-2 heals heroic with me just staying it cat form most of the time. Occasionally we use 2 healers other than me in which case I just try to beat the dps on damage.
I agree that gearing for heroic raids in 3 days would be tough though.
…I might be off by a button, but I’m pretty sure you can still interrupt and maybe spellsteal and be pressing 4 buttons if you’re playing arcane (no decursing though) or BM.
