I hope many of you are with me and I don’t care if they are going to be scaled down to new item levels. I would like a refund on the many thousands of gold I have spent on my heirlooms and their upgrades.
They will no longer be what I bought and personally in my opinion I believe all players should be at the very least entitled to have their cost refunded. Not really sure how anyone could argue against this but I am sure there are a few of you out there that can find a way or a reason to as always.
I bet I have at least $60 cash wrapped up in 'looms. I’m not sure what you’re mad at though because as far as I know they’ll still work, and it’s not like it’ll take half the time to get to 60 as it does to 120 now, so I guess I’m just not seeing the problem.
Caveat: I wanted a refund when they nerfed looms and leveling. I went from just bossing everything to everything being a couple second fight at least, those add up. Scaling did not help at all. Some of us liked to power-trip while leveling, thanks.
“Yeah, I bought this phone a few years ago, but it only gets 3G. I want a full refund for it since everything has upgraded beyond that now and it’s no longer useful to me. And be quick about it. I have to go trade in my old carbureted pickup to the dealer before they close.”
You lie sir! I once tried to return a defective phone and was denied because I was one day late. So I had to send it away and about three phones in I finally got one that was only as broken as the first one (one heated up dangerously). I finished my contract, heard a lot of “hit your phone I can’t hear you” from friends, and then just switched providers.
That’s my entire point, they aren’t going away and I can’t imagine they would nerf them any further, so they’re still there for exactly what they’re there to do, not care about half your gear as you level at +45% xp or whatever. If that makes the leveling blazing fast, so much the better. Not so much, well, they should still be better than random blues I’d think. Like I said I own a Pally set, A druid set, a cloth set, and some others. I expect they’ll still do their duty in 9.0.
Are you all dense? EVERYTHING scales down. Without any upgrades your heirlooms would probably be level 35 or so after the squish. If they are fully upgraded, they’ll be level 50. I know, logic is hard.
I likewise have spent a considerable amount of gold on heirlooms. But I’ve got considerable use and benefit out of them, and thus IN NO WAY consider the gold I spent on them to be wasted. And I consider the argument for a refund to be completely unreasonable.
It’s pretty easy, actually, since I consider the typical arguments to be self-entitled, whiney and lacking in reasonableness.
