What is going on with the Mythic scene right now?

ilvl 386, 4-piece tier, Enhancement is doing VERY good right now.

How am I being declined for anything below a +5; I’m WAY overgeared for a +5, in fact, I’m not even getting into m0! How is that possible, I’m pretty dang confident in my skills…

And I bring Windfury Totem to help pump, WITH HEROISM!

Issue is your ilvl. As a DPS you need something to stand out and you are under normal vault ilvl with an under 1k io score. To them it doesnt matter you pump, you look like an undergeared and inexperienced DPS and they may not want to risk that. You stand out, but in the wrong way.

You are competing for an overplayed spot against people that have both a higher ilvl and a higher io score. Make your own groups and push your own keys, or find a reliable group to push with weekly.

I personally wouldn’t decline you. For anything up to a 10, I generally just invite whoever, but that’s why you’re being declined.

Can you kick reliably? If so you are already LEAGUES better than most dps I have pugged with.

Yeah but they wont know that unless they actually take you

It’s m0…literally a walk in the park…

And there’s people with higher item levels and better credentials applying for that same dungeon.

Why invite you?

You mentioned +5s as well, which is what i was mostly addressing. And again, read what I said. You are a low ilvl DPS. 4pc or not you are even still under normal vault ilvl. The group lead may want a smoother run and the 404 mage is both higer ilvl and brings lust. Your windfury is a moot point depending on group comp.

You should just be pushing your own key. I don’t invite anyone no matter their ilvl if they haven’t cleared keys already at the same level and done that particular key at least 1 rank lower.

Past two weeks I’ve started to not invite dps until after I get a healer.

Because I’m waiting 10-30min to get a healer for any key <16 and the dps I invite will dip before I find one.

Cant stress this enough. Mythic+ or base mythics, if you have to pug then make the group yourself. You cant be declined from your own group.

Just form your own groups, it’s the only solution, people will naturally invite people with higher ilvl and io score

Peeps want ilvl 4009384635272 right now.
Prolly gotta make your own groups.

Nobody trusts you aren’t a casual that can’t do mechanics.

While you do out gear a 5, you don’t have a resume on your main to trust you have the skill to preform. Such as a 2k io main to reference with an addon.

While conceptually speaking, requiring a resume on a 5 is Uber cringe, the reality is you are behind in gearing with that toon with no proof you know what you’re doing.

I have no issue healing 14s on my 6th healer alt because I have 4toons at 2k+. And you can see that on the M+ addon.

There is no reason to trust a toon behind the curve when there are so many “better perceived” applicants out there in queue.

Get that io up there is the reason. I wish you luck. Pug life is shallow.
