Blizzard implementing their own Mythic rating will kill raider io, like they’ve implemented other extremely popular addons in the past.

Raider IO is way too good at what it does. It wasn’t created to give people a hard time, it was created to solve issues that have always existed with WoW. I think we’ll have it with us for a long time.

Question. Was there anything like io but for ilvl in the past?
Gearscore.

Was that like a seperate add-on as well?
Yep. Its use was so widespread that Blizzard literally started showing ilvl in response to it. (Items used to hide this, and only showed stats.)

I doubt anything would kill it outside of Blizzard implementing their own.
But that said I do feel bad for those who struggle to get into groups because of it, and I wish there was a solution for those folks.

If our ever-kind and considerate community is anything to go by, the solution is “git gud.” /sigh

I’m hoping mythic + dies a firey death. They need to just make mythic aoe tanking impossible like in BC…

And they can’t “git gud” (it auto corrected to that lol) because no one will accept them into their groups.
People just don’t think very much these days.
Edit: I know people shouldn’t be triyng to get into +10’s with limited experience, but I don’t like systems that can be abused easily.
Some people will use it as a good thing but I can see some groups abusing it but w/ever.

If something doesn’t kill off Raider IO…
… it will kill what little community the game has left.
Though it would appear many are fine with that, so long as they’re the last ones standing.

It’s just a tool that allows the community to filter each other out. I don’t think it hurts the community. Everyone can raise their IO score, it just takes a little time.

It’s a chronically misused tool, just like Gearscore before it.
Players are using it as an alternative to interacting with players are making informed judgments based on their own observations. They’re SO focused on ensuring the success of their group based on an arbitrary metric that they refuse to take risks meeting people, learning how to work with them, how to instruct or assist newer players, or even TALK to them for that matter. There’s no attempt to form any sort of social bond, not even that of a passing acquaintance.
It is this attitude which will ultimately kill WoW.
Raider IO perpetuates and reinforces it.
And quite frankly, if you have to raise your score in anything outside the game itself in order to do content within it?
Then things have already gone HORRIBLY WRONG.

The solution is for them to raise their score by running with friends/guildies or starting their own groups and pushing their own keys like the rest of us did.

Some folks don’t really have friends/guildies though and in todays environment it can be tough to have a reliable group for that sort of thing. Especially after hearing stories of people asking for high scores for +2s and whatnot.
I mean, yes, what you say is technically true, but I still feel for those who do genuinely struggle. I would probably be in that same boat if I didn’t have a few friends to take me to M+ every so often.

I think it’s fine. It’s basically just a way for people to measure aptitude. At a glance you can see which keys a person has completed, which raids they’ve done. On top of that you can see an in game score which shows a persons overall aptitude.
It’s kind of hard to fake a high IO score, which means the system works pretty well.
Anybody can get their IO score up, which means it’s also fair.

They won’t. They would never implement a built in “discrimination system” as most babies say it is.
