Why nerf Valorstones?

Um…Valorstone discounts are account wide…so this has more to do with mains than alts…

Why have QoL, when they could have QoTM (Quality of Time Metrics)?

Is it less than you’d get for the whole dungeon or did they move the entire sum to the final boss to encourage people to finish?

Answered several times in the thread, you get 15 off the last boss only. You get no more from any of the other bosses.

maybe they nerf’d valorstone drops so they can sell valorstones on the bliz store

Who cares about normal and heroic dungeons?

Was this some kind of “leaving from first boss no loot” bonus policing?

Only metric blizzard cares about is gear. If you gear too fast they will nerf it.

Mainly only an issue for raids. Otherwise people found the fastest way to farm stones was the first boss in a dungeon.

I dunno. I saw this coming from a mile away. Not sure who in their right mind thought they’d let anyone infinitely farm follower or normal dungeons like that. They always nerf stuff like this.

Everything is locked behind crests anyway

Stones didn’t need nerfs tbh

My understanding is that Bliz has a uge bingo ball filled with game mechanics that they spin and pull suggestions for what to nerf. This time it was Valorstones.

Have they stated why…maybe they moved all the valorstones to the endboss to stop people from leaving early.

Valorstones are completely redundant and unnecessary for upgrades; crests already limit players on how much they can upgrade each week so why add another farmable currency just to slow down and annoy players even more?

Too many casuals running around with 600+ ilvl without setting foot in a mythic, probably.

I guess I am wondering what the point of dungeons that aren’t M+ are now? The items are pretty garbage, at least you could get stones to upgrade the garbage. Now you can’t even do that really. Everything but dungeons is the better choice. So why didn’t they just shut the non-Mythic dungeons down entirely?

So it’s your fault then :shushing_face:?? Hopefully it’s just a bug (because the devs are so infallible this expac) but I fear Daddy “Monkey Paw” Blizz is at it again. :see_no_evil::speak_no_evil::hear_no_evil:

You get bottlenecked by the crests not by the valorstones. The only thing Valorstones are is annoying to grind.

You know why. To increase the time played metric. If you’re spending time doing something else you really should be playing wow.
