Visions? Y ou talking about that thing that happened at the end of that one expansion, was it BfA or was it Shadowlands, I forget?
That was an end-of-expansion thing, or maybe you’re talking about the Pre-TWW event where you went to 3 different areas and such.
That was a pre-patch event. They always do that before an expansion, they hand you free purples so that people can do some last-minute raids and other content before the next expansion drops.
Every. Expansion. Ever. has done this.
Visions is proper BFA S4 content, not a pre-season thing. It rewarded heroic raid gear, could be done solo.
And come shadowlands? The closest thing we have is Torghast.
You’re forgetting about Korthia and that other zone that came after it, lol.
Korthia gave stuff that was IIRC Normal Raid gear and could be upgraded. And I didn’t personally do it because I quit during Korthia and came back in DF, but I heard that other area gave similar.
Same stuff they did in Timeless Isle, too.
But not heroic raid gear. And it was normal raid gear after excessive grinding.
Close to it. And Korthia wasn’t end-of-expansion, it was mid-expansion. That’s a little different.
I can’t comment on that area after it because I didn’t do it as I said.
And I remember those Vision thingies not being very fun, I remember trying some of it and finding it to be rather grindy and the mobs not exactly fun to fight. But that could just be fuzzy memory. I didn’t do a lot of it, BfA itself was… not very fun.
Visions did give loot though! (As for fun, can’t comment.) I will say, I found it too hard to do 5 mask solo. Was a prestige only thing.
Tried it a few times, didn’t have the best corruptions for it either.
But anyway point is Blizzard experiments a lot with the solo content side of things, hoping to find something that sticks and works.
I would not be surprised if Delves are discarded like the rest. If nothing else, they’ll kick out all npc companions at some point.
Considering the vast popularity of delves over anything else, I doubt it.
Island Expeditions were only done begrudgingly because of the Borrowed Power crap.
Warfronts were way over-tuned and so most soloists hated it.
But now we have Delves and the general consensus is that they are awesome and that they should stick around.
Visions are returning soon, maybe they’ll relegate delve loot to 0-10 deleted key range, and visions can be the upper boundary or maybe even grant mythic track there.
Seems silly if Visions don’t give better rewards than delves.
Or maybe, get this, they’ll have Visions coexisting alongside Delves.
You really seem to have this grudge match against Delves in specific, lol. It’s really showing some heavy bias on your part.
Cool.
Is the the same scenario where delves give myth track at 11? Because heroic gear from WQs then trying to get myth track from delve tier 11 sounds like a great game to me.
Test in an season 4, watch delve participation plummet or complaints arise.
The pure venom you have for delves is so obvious lol. It’d be comical if it wasn’t so sad.
The only thing for some dumb reason that turned me off to delves so much trash and I do not like underwater runs only because I almost died from drowning back when I was 10 or 11
So why shouldn’t Delves be rewarding for solo players?
You just want to gate keep gear and try and force people into M+ for gear even though it’s the most toxic part of the playerbase ingame.
There has always been overlap in game modes and you are complaining that you can’t look more important than a solo player with similar gear now.
It’s just exposing how many players disliked mythic+ and are flocking to the the content they find fun.
There’s no good reason to have all this gear I could upgrade but for lack of crests found in the content, I do not do for no more complicated reason other than I do not find it fun.
The point is moot now that season 2 is so close. I am only hoping they adjust crest drop rates so I can upgrade my gear. Feels bad microblizz, fix it.
Obviously they should nerf the gear right, so it doesnt have these unsightly upgrade paths?
Just make delve gear one track lower, so it maxes out at the same place now?
Why is this an issue? Get a passing grade if you time it, just fail if you don’t. Why is the timer an issue?
delves are not a pillar, just a step stool… level up in the campaign, delve for gear then play Path of Exile 2…
Why would I play 2 when I didn’t like 1.
The content you do caps at 619 ilvl, not 626.
