I imagine this happens to an enormous amount of people. He is around 210 iLvl. And there is nowhere to go to to gear. Removing his ability to gear through mythic+ properly has totally killed the game for him. His only other option is to go from never having PvP’d to getting to like 1800 or something.
This guy is a doctor who does hospital and clinic. He comes home late and plays with me for a couple hours. He needs to have access to gear through the system he chooses or he wont play.
And NO! We arent talking about getting 226 from LFR. We are pushing keys here. Its way harder then heroic raids and it rewards lower iLvl gear. This decision is one of those made to limit a few dozen guys for a couple weeks and it negatively affects a huge swath of people.
Thought you would like to know since my friend is EXACTLY the guy who leaves, who I thought you were trying to hang on to.

They don’t care, I hate to say it but its true. Been coming on the forums more than actually playing at this point.

At 179 you should play more and get gear.
You can have 190 stuff just by finishing campaign.

It’s the same reason my sub is cancelled (will run out in at the end of March) and a few of my RL friends also cancelled. Things are always getting “fixed” when they aren’t broken…it started with Flying, and now it’s M+.

I think they have a lot of non-reality-based assumptions about how they can change the playerbase they have into the one they think they deserve.

To be honest, I’m starting to waiver a bit myself.
I don’t like the current balance in the game, I don’t like PvP being the source for the most elite gear (for us mere mortals that aren’t going to turn raiding into a full time job), I feel locked out of higher mythic+ that I could handle while at the same time I feel like I’m just slogging through the other content, and the only reward I ever get is the weekly chest.
It’s just… not a lot of fun the way they have the game set up now. It’s like it’s only designed for people collecting dress up items from old raids, elite mythic raiders or elite PvPers and the rest of us are being told to drop dead.

Literally nothing has changed from bfa. You still just end up shooting for Tuesday chest to replace all your slots anyways. What does it matter if m+ is 210 or 213 if the chest is the only thing that matters anyways?

I think they wanted to experiment with something different to see how players would respond. Now that they know it’s a show, they’ll have little choice but to make M+ and to some extent raids, more rewarding.

wait, I’m confused, How can he not get more from M+ even at 210?
I was under impression cap was like 226-230 at the moment?
…lfr is 187…

210 is the most you can get from the end of dungeon run from a M+15 on up to the M+infinity.
The weekly vault can give you more, of course, but the weekly vault could also give you nothing, or you could get guaranteed upgrades from PvP a lot easier.
Basically it amounts to not everyone wants their entire loot progression to come down to a roll of the die on the weekly vault with absolutely no other way to progress.

I canceled my sub yesterday also. Like doing diablo style things in the game isn’t fun. There is no rpg in the game. I just don’t know anymore.

Ah, Did not realize that. I figured it still went up to the cap. I’m still in the 8-10 range myself.
Congrats to OPs friend tho. To already be decked out like that, pretty damn lucky.
Especially if Ideal stats.

it’s always mythic+ people threatening to quit because they aren’t mythic geared in a week due to tf. honestly if more of these guys left the forums, and game, would likely be in better shape.

Everyone’s time is valuable doesn’t make a difference if it’s a doctor or someone working a low end job.
